Thoughts on the Spurrier comment...
Aug 22, 2014, 10:08 AM

First, let me say that I can't stand Slurrier, and I'm usually the first to chuckle about his obsession with Clemson.
However, I don't really see any foul in this one.
In fact, I wish we would start treating them like every other game in preparation as well. Maybe then we could eliminate the obvious pressing and resulting turnovers (see last year).
Go Tigers!

any particular game, and his response was that they treat ECU and Clemson the same in that regard, or something like that.

"We treat Clemson just like East Carolina, we really do." - Steve Spurrier (On treating every game the same.)
So not only is he a mouthy self-serving a$$hat, he's a liar too.

Old Ball Sack is a total Jack A$$. I couldn't stand him

at Duke, couldn't stand him at Florida, and can't stand him at USuCk. I know he's a wiley old coot who runs his mouth and plays lots of head games. That doesn't mean that I disagree with every single thing he says or does, however, and I really don't see what the big deal is regarding his latest comments either.

Every time Slur trolls us, a coot booster sends a check.

Nothing wrong with that comment Would you be happier if he said that he prepares his team more vigorously for Clemson because he hates them so much? You guys just look for things to get your panties in a wad.The gamecocks are no more important than anyone else that we play .... to me. If we had beaten them five in a row you would all be fans of the usuck coach.

It was backhanded. If he was being decent, he would not have referenced East Carolina. He would have mentioned a different team, like UGA maybe. He is a complete d1cknose no matter which way you spin it.

and maybe it was backhanded. All it made me think was that I wish we actually would treat them like every other game in preparation. It seems like they got in our heads, last year in particular.

Welll looks like he wins again based on everyone on this thread obsessing about an inane comment that has no bearing on anything.
He wins every time we respond to this garbage.
Ignore, that goes for Dabo as well.

The fact that he linked Clemson and ECU is telling

He was trying to minimize us, by putting us on the level with ECU. I don't think that was by accident. Had he paired TAMU and ECU or ECU and UGA, games that were actually side by side on the schedule, I'd say it wasn't a shot.
But the sentiment is the same that we have...nameless and faceless opponent. And that is BS from both our side and theirs. Coaches, players and fans know that certain games are more important than others and that they prepare differently for them.

Well, you know that ECU is easier to spell than Clemson University.
