USAToday South Carolina's debacle of season reaches new low


Nov 11, 2019, 9:26 AM

Everyone who looked at South Carolina's schedule knew this was going to be a difficult year. In addition to the usual suspects in the SEC East and its annual game against Clemson, Will Muschamp’s team drew the short straw on its rotating conference crossover game, replacing Ole Miss with Alabama.

In other words, all the ingredients were there for this to be a debacle — especially if something catastrophic happened like an injury to a key player. Of course, that exact scenario played out when starting quarterback Jake Bentley suffered a season-ending injury in the opener against North Carolina, forcing freshman Ryan Hilinski into the lineup right away.

So perhaps it's no surprise that South Carolina sits here today with a 4-6 record that could easily turn into 4-8 with games left against Texas A&M and Clemson. But the route to get here has been curious, with some really promising performances (a win over Georgia, for instance) and some really bad ones (getting blown out by Tennessee and Missouri).

Everyone who looked at South Carolina's schedule knew this was going to be a difficult year. But it got pretty ugly with loss to Appalachian State.

Is it a new low or just the most recent low?

Haven’t you heard? They would be 10 - 0 if he hadn’t went down against UNCheat....

Whatever choice(s) you make makes you. Choose wisely.

Their fans cheered when it was announced that Bentley was out for the year.

Now we are calling that their major reason for struggling this season?

I'm sure there is a better pillow to put under them to try to cushion the fall than Bentley.
