House Coots: To any other truly elite level team

the natives would be quite restless if you had failed to do much other than beating your rival five in a row. That really sums up your last five years. You coasted through a weak division, racked up some wins against crap teams (especially in your bowl games), and you beat your rival. That's it.
Now let's take a look at a more recently elite team. UGA. Despite beating you recently, beating the pants off of their rival (GT), and winning a good number of games the last five years, the natives are restless because Richt has failed to bring in a conference title or a natty. They expect better, and expect to do more than just beat their rival. The funny thing is, Richt has had titles in larger quantities than Spurrier at SCAR.
Flip over to SCAR, and Spurrier gets a pass because "OMGEE, WE BEAT OUR BIG BRO CLEMSON". OMG, 11 wins and Capital One Bowl! OLOL, SECCG appearance that was even more of a blowout than the Orange Bowl game we like to laugh about.
You have beaten us, but that's about all you can chest beat about. I'll dry my eyes with my two Orange Bowl hand towels while you finish celebrating your gutsy come-back win in the Toilet Bowl over a team that is far inferior.

SCAR really is obsessed with us

Your "golden years" basically have no legs without your wins against us. Your reply is a great illustration of that.

So it's understandable why they act like they've never been there. Because they truly have never been there. Problem is Clemson has never been here either.

I've noticed a ton of coot fans wearing their 5 shirts and

It got me thinking. They act like this because they haven't been there before. I can't remember Clemson fans saying lame things like "fear the thumb" or wearing shirts with a hand on them when we were on a winning streak. So, when you see your toothless cashier at walmart wearing their "5 in a row" shirt, just smile and say bless it. This is all new for them.

We have had three different four-year streaks of beating the coots.

To me. Isn't it a great feeling to experience domination over your rival for 90% of your life!

What comes up must go down. Who is the next highly successful coach that is going to run down to rescue SCAR after Spurlid leaves? I wonder if there are any precedents that we can look at for guidance? What do you think, Mr. Holtz?

Clemson ain't an elite program either, bud.
If it were, Tommy Bowden would have been fired quickly. Do you know the reason he wasn't? He beat his rival.
It's funny how you and Clemson fans think bringing up history bothers SC fans. It is what it is. There is zero reason to think the future of both programs isn't bright. That clearly bothers you and the only way you know how to deal with it is to downplay SC's accomplishments and cherry pick arguments to fit your extremely subjective opinions.
Call me a troll, but I always remain objective. I give Clemson credit where credit is due. I also understand SC is not an elite program yet. I have no agenda, and I am well-adjusted enough to be ok with my university's rival having a good football team. You, however, seem to derive some of your self-worth by the outcomes of football games.
South Carolina has a better football team than Clemson and has the past four seasons. It will for sure change during our lifetimes, but right now, you need to deal with SC being the team.

But your buddies in the other thread think you are (Hahah).
SCAR is not top dog of anything but the not-amount-to-anything pile.

you say "It's funny how you and Clemson fans think bringing up history bothers SC fans. It is what it is"
But yet you acknowledge that 5 yrs ago is history, 4 yrs ago is history, 3 yrs ago is history, 2 yrs ago is history. You bring up the pst four seasons.
Objective? bahahahahahaha
"You, however, seem to derive some of your self-worth by the outcomes of football games."
Is that what you and your fellow visiting coots are doing on this board. Evidenty you parents sucked and didn't teach you how to act as a guest in someone's home.

Neither South Carolina or Clemson should be considered elite
