Getting this going early. Lets try to keep the bitching venting in this thread, myself included.
Now, have at it.

Never happen, that would take guts and imagination. We'll keep "Champ" (lol) another 2-3 years and likely hire Les Miles when Kansas fires him.I would like to see Billy Napier as our head coach. His Ragin Cajuns seem to finish the job and win their games. I’m sick of stupid mistakes costing us games over and over. I have been a loyal Muschamp supporter, but we are seriously lacking in fundamentals.
We seem to have one of those "touching the ball on a punt" gaffs at least once a year.I saw some good things, but also stupid mistakes. I think the OL has potential. Shi Smith is a stud, although that end around on 3rd down was a weak effort. Reach for the first down! Muse missed a crucial catch although not the best thrown ball. Dline is small, but fast. Saw potential there. Where was Mukuamu? If he was in the doghouse, very disappointing. I like Hill, his arm and accuracy, but I wonder if his lack of mobility will be an issue in the SEC.
There were non calls for holding and PI - not sure what the refs were doing unless there was just an overall attitude to let them play unless blatant.
The last punt was horrible coaching. There was no reason to think you could set up a return, so there was zero reason to have any players in the area blocking. Only the returner should be there and all he could have done anyway was fair catch or not field the ball. Just plain dumb.....
I honestly think we are a decent, maybe even slightly good team, but as as a Gamecock fan for the past 33 years, there is the typical feeling of the next shoe to drop. This team is welcome to prove that feeling wrong, but getting 5 wins is not looking good.
Remains to be seen how good UT is. Not sold on them being much better than 5-5.
In a Covid year, Champ is going to get the benefit of the doubt.
Unfortunately, you are correct.We seem to have one of those "touching the ball on a punt" gaffs at least once a year.
This is the bad part. We probably couldn't afford the buyout this year anyways with the loss of revenue. Either way, I want Tanner gone before we make any coaching changes.In a Covid year, Champ is going to get the benefit of the doubt.
As far as the O goes, we don't have a running game. Our o and d lines still sucks as well.I didn’t see the game.
Suprised that Hilinksi wasn’t in the stat line. And more so after reading the comments about Hill.
Figured our O would need help, but didn’t expect to give up so much on D. Score alone I guess the O played decent?
Yep, O line sucks. TN spent more time in our backfield than we did. Their penetration was almost instantaneous. Just like the last couple of years, the D would suck for a bunch of plays, then make a good player and jump around celebrating like they just won the Super Bowl. The lack of discipline is astounding. The lack of coaching is astounding. We were behind in the first half and had the ball before halftime and didn’t even try. We were behind by a TD with approximately 4 minutes left, and went for FG instead of a TD. Both of these are decisions made by coaches, and they both scream indecisiveness and giving up to me. I’m so tired of this crap every year. I don’t expect to win championships every year, but I’d like to know we at least have a shot once in a while.As far as the O goes, we don't have a running game. Our o and d lines still sucks as well.
