The Record of Wrongs: South Carolina Gamecocks

by Joel on Oct 29, 2009 7:37 AM EDT in Tennessee Volunteer Football Comment 44 comments

Hear ye, hear ye. It's Time. Time for Tennessee Volunteer fans to gather for the ceremonial reading of the Record of Wrongs, a litany of the offenses committed by the South Carolina Gamecocks.

November 1, 2008: Tennessee 6, South Carolina 27, the 2008 game in which fans finally reached the fifth stage of grief. Almost immediately following acceptance came Fulmer's firing, widely considered one of the dreariest days in Tennessee football history.
October 27, 2007: Tennessee 27, South Carolina 24. Yes, we won this one, but we nearly drove off a cliff after a 21-0 halftime lead turned into a win in an overtime that almost wasn't but was because our own penalty allowed Daniel Lincoln to re-kick a missed field goal attempt to tie the game. (Yes, Lincoln says he knew about the penalty before he kicked the first one, but it's much more dramatic to ignore that particular information.)
October 29, 2005: No. 23 Vols lose 16-15 to Steve Spurrier due primarily to Arian Foster's fumble within a blade of fescue at the goal line, the blade that broke the camel's back so to speak, causing Randy Sanders to fall on his sword the following Tuesday.

Steve Spurrier wants to raise your taxes and bomb your buildings.

Um, they used to feature Blake Mitchell as their QB, and Blake Mitchell, well . . .

Um, this bizarrity:

Coach Steve Spurrier used to coach the Florida Gators, and once you get that stink on you, it never comes off. Credit him with much of Florida's Record of Wrongs as well.

Steve Spurrier once infamously said, "You can't spell Citrus without U-T." Bad enough, that, but it also spawned a thousand poor attempts at mimicry: You can't spell [. . .] without [. . .] LOL!!1

Steve Spurrier once said of Peyton Manning, "I know why Peyton came back for his senior year: he wanted to be a three-time Citrus Bowl MVP!"

South Carolina's logo features a "gaudy giant C," and "frightened . . . multitasking poultry" that is "squawking its little chicken heart out while molting":

South Carolina Logo

Probably not true

Steve Spurrier is the devil.
South Carolina choose its school colors because its two most favoritist things are "black and blood." The institution's first president was an incisored living dead and now resides in a vault in the basement of the campus library.
The entire athletic department is kept afloat by revenue generated at the school's popular Tuesday Night Cock Fights. They're efficient, adding to the gambling take money made on the poor beaten contestants, as they are put on ice and shipped to Baton Rouge for breadin', fryin', and eatin'.

That's all I've got for now. The floor is open.

So UT lost Randy Sanders immediately after SoCar.

Same with Fulmer, et al., last year. That Spurrier guy has been a thorn in the side of the AD.

Carolina also got Johnny Majors fired in 92

….I think our coaching staff is safe this time

Granted Majors was obviously on his way out at the time anyway, and the coming of Fulmer didn’t turn out so bad. The Gamecocks deserve some credit though; scenes of the phenomenal film “The Program” were filmed between quarters and during half-time.

I've always been kinda "meh" towards SoCar, but there is always this guy!

YES

Steve Tanneyhill, author of the upset in ’92. We got him back the next year though – one of our guys put him in a 270 degree midair flat spin at the goaline when he tried to run it in on third and goal on the opening drive, blocked the field goal on the next play, and won 55-3.

Can I add the 2006 game?

Yes, we won, but they hurt Ainge at the end and turned our 7-1 start into a 9-4 disappointment ending with that crapfest in the Outback Bowl.

by VolnVA on Oct 29, 2009 1:51 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

They also hurt Brent S. in 2004

Which, coupled with Ainge’s injury the next week, set up the QB issues that led to The Season of Which We Do Not Speak.
