Time for crow...who's hungry?

Eug Cock · 03-20-2017, 12:55 AM

Alright y'all....time to own up!

What say you?

swjwjwkw · 03-20-2017, 08:37 AM

I will be the first to admit I had us losing in the 1st Round of every bracket I completed. I was being more of a realist than a fan based upon the way this team finished the season and the SEC Tournament. I will say after last night I will eat crow everyday of the week and twice on Sunday if they continue to play like that. We have a realistic shot of making the Final Four if this play continues!!! CROW EATER HERE!!!! Go Cocks!~!!

I thought that they had a chance against MU but if I had to bet on it, I would have bet that they lose to MU. I definitely didn't think they could pull the upset last night.

Gotrice was right. OOC teams are not accustomed to our D and it's giving those OOC teams fits.

This team was in the tank at the end of the season but Frank has them playing really well right now.

Roosterdog · 03-20-2017, 09:19 AM

I'll take a big plate of it.

USCBatgirl21 · 03-20-2017, 09:24 AM

I'm just loving the fact the Greg Marshall fan boys are having to watch their dreams slip farther and farther away.

USCBatgirl21 · 03-20-2017, 09:25 AM

And I'll be honest...I NEVER thought we'd win last night.

HHess · 03-20-2017, 09:40 AM

I've never been happier to see my bracket explode. I had us out in the 1st round. I'll happily donate my bracket entry fee every year if it means I pick us to lose and we end up in the Sweet 16.

I'll have my crow with a side of taters please...

Rewster · 03-20-2017, 09:41 AM

Yeah I bet against us. Best 100$ I spent.

Rewster · 03-20-2017, 09:41 AM

x2.
I'll keep doing it too. Maybe not that much scratch though...

cockinraleigh · 03-20-2017, 09:46 AM

I had us beating Marquette but losing to Duke in my bracket. My bracket is destroyed anyway so let's go as far as we can!

CoastCocky · 03-20-2017, 09:47 AM

I was as pessimistic as anyone going into the tournament, based on our play over the last month+ of the regular season. There was no reason to believe we'd turn it on against better teams than those we had been losing to. But we did. I won't say I'm ready to eat crow, as my assumptions were based on us playing over a month of less-than-mediocre basketball.

Jim Lahey · 03-20-2017, 09:50 AM

No one saw this coming. I was pretty down after the SEC tournament and didn't think we had much of a chance. But glad this team has proven me wrong. I've had a blast watching these first two games.

If your luck is anything like mine (which is why I don't bet - lol) we'll have a better shot going forward if you actually UP your wagers..... just sayin'. ;-)

Yeah, there are always those who think they're the superfan who "had faith" all along, but as you said, nobody saw this coming. Anyone who says they saw us scoring 65 points IN A HALF against Duke is full of it. Folks wouldn't be so excited if that were the case.

FanofCarolina1 · 03-20-2017, 11:20 AM

Just like the millions and millions around the country I had us getting past Marquette but not Duke. Oh well, I'm happy I was wrong.

Same here. My bracket isn't destroyed. I am 4th right now with the second highest possible point total left. I am in in the top 97.9% on one of my brackets on ESPN.

However, that region is completely toast. Everyone is hosed there. So let's just win it and go to the Final Four.

I never thought we would beat Duke but I did bring it up on here after Nova lost. "What if?" and "why not?"

behindenemylines · 03-20-2017, 12:32 PM

I am pissed because I have us losing to Baylor...I am an idiot

HeadCockFan · 03-20-2017, 12:45 PM

I gave the Cocks a 5% chance of making it this far. 65 points scored on Duke... in a half?! I did not think that was possible. Sindarius 2020.

flava03 · 03-20-2017, 01:51 PM

This is my first time posting in the basketball forum. I just don't get very excited for basketball. I keep up with the team but its not the same as football. All that said, that was one of the most exciting, heart pounding moments in Gamecock history that I've ever witnessed. Its not very far behind watching the baseball team win back to back titles and on par with some of the signature football wins. I'll gladly eat that crow.

You really have a problem with having been wrong, dont you?
