Spread vs. aTm

[GarnetBlack&Blue]

Super early lines are out for week 1!!

Gamecocks are a 9 point favorite

Kinda surprising, but I guess they don't really have any experience at QB right now...

Not surprising considering they don't know who's going to be their starting QB and it's played in our house.

[Ericvol2096]

I think you all may steamroll them.

34-17

[treys1986]

I was expecting it to be around 5.

Going into the game against the aggies:

They're defense is awful, the worst in the SEC, they couldn't stop a running nose.

They have how many players suspended? Isn't it like 7-8 now?

They'll have a true Fr QB in his first game, in the SEC, on the road, against a team that's won 18 straight at home and had a Top 20 Total Defense last year.

SC's offense will be much improved from last year, we'll be able to score at will on these clowns. However, we're going to grind clock to limit the snaps for their HUNH offense.

Mike Davis is mad, bro, he's running angry this season.

Spurrier > Sumlin
Ward > Whoever the POS DC they have.

Crowd noise at SC during an ESPN night game...huge advantage to us.

aTm has no video of how we run a 3-4 defense, so what exactly are they going to teach their true Fr QB about it?

[rosstheboss]

yeah but it's the first game. we will struggle like always. turnovers, penalties, guys out of shape. 9 seems high to me but I fully expect to win by at least a TD

Vegas loves home winning streaks, senior quarterbacks, and the HBC.

Has Sumlin said they are suspended for our game? Unless someone makes him I doubt he suspends them for a conference game. He did it last year with a few players.

There are some of the guys who were suspended, but it will probably be a Richt situation where he won't announce if they're suspended for the games until right before the game.

Haha about to take a dump on these clowns. Welcome to the SEC Texas A&M.

[uscgamecocks88]

I know our first game is usually really sloppy but we shouldn't have problems vs them.

Not expecting a 41-13 game but we should win convincingly.

I hate it when people say things like this. Anybody could say this about anybody and there's no way to justify it and it doesn't really mean anything.

[usc1]

A&M is more talented than us. Won't be as convincing as people think.

“I’m going to run angry next season, and everybody’s going to know about it,” said Davis, who received only minimal contact this spring after rushing for 1,183 yards a year ago in his first season as the Gamecocks’ starting running back.


Davis will be running behind one of the better offensive lines in the SEC. The Gamecocks return four starters, and senior guard A.J. Cann said blocking for a guy like Davis makes their jobs easier.

“That first hit, he’s not coming down,” Cann said. “Unless you clip him by his ankles, he might fall. But if you go at him up high, I don’t think he’s coming down. He runs angry, and he runs mean.”

“That’s how I want to run on every carry.”

My only concern is "Do we have the front three necessary to run the 3-4? Where is our Vince Wilfork?"

Going by recruiting rankings, yeah they have more talent. Especially on O. Are they the better team? Don't think so.

[GarnetBlack&Blue]

We should be able to score in droves, but there's a still a lot of questions about our defense- though I think our LB's should really be able to show out in this game.

Right now I think I'd take the Cocks at -9, but I haven't hit my late-July all out CFB research mode yet!
