Looking at USUx schedule next year. My


Feb 9, 2017, 6:49 PM

prediction...let it be known I am a "glass half empty" type guy.

NC St - win
at Missouri - win
Kentucky - win
La Tech - win
at A&M - loss
Arkansas - toss up
Vandy - win
at Georgia - loss
Florida - toss up
Wofford - win
Clemson - here's where I struggle. No question we will or should be favored but, they will have been waiting for us for a year. To counteract this, Dabo loves to go to a hostile environment and win. Real nervous about this prediction, but a say a loss for USUx.

In summary, USUx will be 6 - 4, and two toss ups!

a BIG loss to a good NCSU team right out of the gate.

Talent wise NCST is a step or two above the coots and they are a more physical team, I do not see the coots hanging with The Pack.

I'm with you. They will struggle with NC State.

while I agree NCSU should be better


Feb 9, 2017, 8:13 PM [ in reply to you missed one.. ]

there is no doubt that our incompetent ACC neighbors to the North,

UNCheat and Doeren's Dunces both,

and their illegitimate cousins to the East, the Pirates,

have all lain down like cheap ###### when playing the Coots over the last 15 years or so.

I don't think those idiots from Tobacco Road can muster enough gumption

to beat an SEC team regardless the talent difference,

though I'll be quite happy to be proven wrong on this account...

This. They never lose the opener to the team to the North. Somehow.

Arkansas is by no means a toss-up


Feb 10, 2017, 3:44 AM [ in reply to you missed one.. ]

Arky has a great QB that will shred them apart. Arkansas arguably has the best true QB in the SEC West next year, and a powerful o-line

I for one am glad you are stopping. You are one of the most ignorant posters ever. You obviously think very highly of your own opinion, unlike the rest of us - RockHillTiger

Feb 9, 2017, 7:01 PM

FYI: You omitted @ UT

I think they lose to UT, UF, and UK - but the rest sounds about right. They should go 5-7 IMO. 6-6 would be a good year for them again.

I don't know about the other teams here but really we have 3-4 better qbs on our team not to mention better receivers, rbs, and oline. And ou defense gonna be sick. I don't care how much they want revenge I think we beat them like a drum again. Ask OU about that revenge factor

Re: Looking at USUx schedule next year. My


Feb 9, 2017, 7:31 PM

You're giving the coots WAY too much credit. Arkansas will beat them, Kentucky will continue to beat them, so that's 2 more losses right there, and don't put it past NCState to beat them as well. Bentley is not the answer, and their defense won't be that much better.

They have been waiting for a year huh have we ever lost a game a year after hanging half a hundred on a team? Not even close. We are so far more talented it's not even funny. There is not one position that we are not better at. You need to start fearing the thumb...but we aren't stopping at 5

I don't know, Louisiana Tech likes to air it out. They pass for about 500 yards a game. With 5'5 corners on the edge, LA Tech may keep it close.

I'm not trying to be cruel...but seriously, do you have eyes?

We blew the Gamecocks off the field by 49 points last year and it could have been more if we'd been inclined to run up the score as opposed to take our seniors out to soccer-style ovations.

There was no part of that game where the Gamecocks were remotely competitive. We generated 622 total yards to their 218, 41 first downs to their 14. They got completely destroyed at the line of scrimmage; we sacked, hit, and abused their QB so badly they had to pull Bentley by the third quarter.

They were - and remain - one of the least-talented teams on our schedule. In particular they've got massive issues in the trenches and you just don't fix those overnight.

I actually think it's going to be worse for them this year. The problem is they're expecting to build on their six wins from last year and I don't think they can because those six were about the absolute max they were going to get and required a boatload of breaks to go their way. Six wins is probably about their cap again...but what happens if they don't get those breaks?

We'll see where everybody is by the end of November but I expect to see about a 4-7 Gamecock team by then and we could be seeing some signs the wheels are coming off for Muschamp's regime if they start taking steps back. The thing that would really concern me if I was a Gamecock fan is their lines...their squishy lines ensure there's really no easy automatic games for them and it means you can struggle with the likes of Vandy or even LaTech and if you drop a game like that your season and momentum can go South, like, real fast.

I agree, well put. Crazy things happen but if I was concerned about the clucker game next year, I would be expecting a long and tough season to bare. Not going to happen.

Re: Looking at USUx schedule next year. My


Feb 9, 2017, 8:56 PM

Chicks likely lose to NCST, Ark., UGa., UF., UT., Tex. A&M and us. If they lose to Mizzou then look out for possible losses to U.K. and even La. Tech. Skip Holtz would love beating a dead chicken on their turf!! Heck as a Wofford grad nothing would please me more than to run them off the field when they least expect it!

5-7 at best is my pick.

NC State will be a tough out for Clemson.


Feb 9, 2017, 9:00 PM

They are beating the coots

LA Tech lead everyone in offense last year. That's a toss up.

Wofford was really good last year. That's a toss up.

They'll struggle to win five games...


Feb 9, 2017, 9:13 PM

and that's assuming they split two of their four toss-up games.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-20yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


Doubt that. More like 2-3 wins. They'll only be favored in three of those.


Feb 9, 2017, 9:53 PM

And one, Missouri, is away. Thats a pretty even matchup on a neutral field. Kentucky is better and La Tech isnt bad..They won 9 games. Theres a distinct possibility that they only win one game.
