Carolina opens -15.5 - Page 3

5lbYardcock · 08-31-2014, 10:24 PM

Did anyone watch ECU play the other night? It was too funny and the are not the ECU of old. They were small and not impressive at all.

45 to 17 Cocks.

Roosterboy · 08-31-2014, 10:40 PM

Don't know what Vegas is thinking.

I'm think we barely win a shootout...45-42.
I just have no faith in this defense to stop an air raid offense until they prove it.
Call me a negative fan, but until this D shows any fight, we have to assume we will have to score close to 50 to stand a chance.

And I guess we were impressive?

Yeah I don't think any of us fell off of the bandwagon we were just heart broken.

Not happening if they score 40 on us they win. Period.

I am not being a sunshine pumper or anything like that I am just stating facts. Has everybody forgotten that in 2010 (WHEN WE WON THE SEC EAST) Ryan Mallet came in and lit our defense up. We lost 41 to 20 and the stadium was empty by the end of the 3rd quarter. Connor Shaw came in and got hurt and everything. I am just saying this isn't the first time this has happen to us and we still have a great year. I am not willing to give up after one game. Last time I checked a gamecock fights until death.

Aggie96 · 09-01-2014, 03:32 AM

What's the O/U on it? As it sits right now, I would take ECU and the points.

Again, where are we small?

Did we watch the same game Thursday? Did you see the same defense I saw?

Wisercock · 09-01-2014, 10:07 AM

I have no idea if we will beat ECU. Obviously, if we are really as bad as we played the other night we aren't going to change that in a week. ECU manhandled NC Central, but how do you compare the two teams? I don't think you can. We could blow them out or lose a close game. So much depends on attitude and our guys have to play with a chip on their shoulder.

Yes I watched it. It was bad. But I get sick of seeing asinine posts that we couldn't beat a high school.
If it was up to you I guess we should just take our ball and go home.

You are better off arguing with a brick wall than arguing with this guy. Texas A & M and ECU are on two completely different talent levels. Does that mean that we can't lose? No, but some of these guys on here are just becoming comical to me with this over the top doomerism.

Line got beat down to -14 basically instantly.

Usually this happens when a few select bettors in Vegas place bets the other way.

I'll monitor this line and keep y'all updated on the money.

I think I'll walk along beside the wagon for one more game. Then jump on for the UGA game. Just Kidding, I've been a fan since the womb, 58 years.

South Carolina by 21 and the defense gets it together!

That's bold.

cockybreeyan · 09-01-2014, 03:16 PM

I expect to come out and cover the spread. I think last week was the kick in the ass our young guys needed.

NinjaSven · 09-01-2014, 03:39 PM

One of the keys is seeing what we give them on 3rd down. I'm tired of seeing 10 yard coverage cushions all the time.

I think the same. I think this game could be like 28 to 10 at half time Carolina. Call me crazy, but I think we are overreacting a little bit. 42 to 17 cocks.
