The fans to change. And we have. I can remember just getting bowl bound was a huge feat. Remember when we were happy with a close loss like the LSU game? Applauding players for losing but making a decent show of it?
Well those days are long gone. Coach got what he wanted. Just look at the board, you'll see it too. Yes the fans have gotten to the point that we expect to win.. every game, and win it all. It took quite a while to get the fans to this point. How many 10 win seasons can you count? Wasn't too long ago we would win the first 4 of six and struggle to get to the sixth win. Folks knew we would have a meltdown in the second half of the season. Beating Clemson was always a dream that usually became a nightmare. We won't speak of 0-11.....
Well it took time for the fans to change. It looks like the team hasn't quite caught up with the fans this time. But if we as fans can change with time, why not the team? Things are getting better but it's not happening overnight. I saw a lot of post at the start of the year for an 9-3 season, and that was also my feelings. We do have a tough schedule this year, but we play big boy football in the SEC and it's never going to be easy.
For myself, I'm gonna enjoy the ride. It doesn't mean a loss is any easier, but look at the difference. At least we feel we should win every game, instead of hoping we don't get blown out all the time. It's really a great time to be a GAMECOCK!
