Do you find it arrogant that you believe you know how others think? Do you think that if someone likes Brewer that makes him racist?

Brewer had a lot of things going for him. First, he was scorned by Ohio State even though he was Ohio Mr. Football. He was not offered any D1 scholarships. Holtz saw a film and took a flyer.

He basically destroyed OSU in the two bowl games. Those were, until last year, the biggest bowl wins in USC history. I don't think you can minimize the impact of those games.

Third, Brewer was a good hard nosed runner that frequently made second effort.

All those reasons have nothing to do with his skin color, but make people like him as a player.

Maybe you are the one with a problem.

I liked Brewer because he was a white boy playing a predominately black position and then shat on Ohio state.

He was like Rudy but better. (Well an underdog story)

Clowney is awsome to watch.

The best interviews, imo, are Quarles. That dude is almost as good as Melvin.



This is funny to me because I thought Holloman played outstanding at safety against ARky. Legree took some bad angles. He has done that before. If he could just slow it down some, then he would be pretty dang good.

Auguste should be back as starter next week. Akeem played an excellent game. The endzone D on Hamilton was truly exceptional.

Go back and rewatch the game. There is a play where Arkansas is driving toward the south endzone and Devonte has a game to make a big hit an he looks silly trying to make the tackle... Put it this way, if DJ was in position he would have lit that dude up.

Was that play where DJ was called for the horse collar?

Rashaad Faison is and always will be mine. I don't know what the man is doing today but he was my childhood idol. I was him for halloween one time, everyone thought i was either just a football player or a quarterback or something, and everytime i corrected them and said i was #11 Rashaad Faison. dude brought it harder than DJ, and i love DJ.

3. DJ is well respected.

lol, okay first off, Great white hype. that is like me saying people only like Obama because he is black... sure a few might but not the majority.

secondly DJ...well respected haha.

dude is what other teams would call a "thug"

He plays hard but i doubt anyone in the nation would call him the best Saftey in football. he is good but not many outside of Gamecock football know him.


also as far as Brewer goes, people love the attitude, people remember him flipping the Ohio State player as he got up, they remember the chip on his shoulder.

He's not even one of our top 40 running backs of all-time. (However he is one of our top 15 recievers in terms of yards.)

You sir are a tardmuffin. Go spew filth somewhere else

MI6 is probably my favorite ever right now. But I love me some Swearinger. Also liked Brewer alot too. I love Clowney's effort. He was pissed last week. I've never seen him say anything to the opposing QB before but he was fired up last week. Probably because that dude tried to take out his knee. I like Clowney. He kind of just goes about his business and works hard and beasts out.

Garrett Chisolm was an awesome Gamecock too
