Why I think we win on Saturday...

Tajh Boyd. His legacy really depends on this game. He is the best QB we have had in 30 years, but his legacy will be tarnished if he can't claim even one win against SCAR. If he beats SCAR and is able to lead us on to a win in a BCS bowl, there is a legitimate argument he should be in the RoH.
He has basically had two weeks to prepare since I am sure we used a lot of the same gameplan from GT against The Citadel. That is an advantage SCAR has enjoyed for a few years, but we are now on even footing concerning end-of-year scheduling.
Couple what this game surely must mean to Boyd with our improved D, and I think we win this game. I think the extra week of prep time will really help us look better against SCAR.

Well, he has three back to back to back 10 win seasons. We have the opportunity to have 11 wins for the first time since 1981 (I realize the 12 game schedule is a new thing in college football, but this is still a big deal). He holds 51 school records. He has an ACC championship during his time as QB, something we hadn't won in 20 years.
I think he has a few ACC records. He was at the helm when we beat 3 top 25 teams in a row, which I think hadn't been done in the ACC before. He was at the helm when we beat two top 10 SEC teams in a row. Basically, if he beats SCAR and is able to lead us to a BCS win, I don't know what else he could possibly do here other than win a NC.
I guess you argue Steve Fuller was better, but that was over 30 years ago wasn't it?

You could argue Rodney Williams, I guess.

Just to play Devil's advocate, Spurrier could care less
about Boyd's legacy. He is more concerned with Connor finishing his career with out a loss at Willie B.
Also, Coastal gave the coots the chance to rest Mike
Davis, and Clowney.
Yes, the game means a lot to Boyd, but the coots could care less.
And they basically had the same week of prep time.
