Somebody Should Check the French Fries in the Greenwood High School Cafeteria

There has got to be something rotten in the food to make Kelcy Quarles say something like this:

That's Good Stuff Right There

Looks like The University of Soccer Liner lost its case to use the logo "USC" to describe itself:

Neil C. Jones, the Greenville, S.C., lawyer representing the University of South Carolina, said school authorities hadn't yet decided whether to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Scott Edelman, an attorney representing the Los Angeles university, hailed the ruling as protection of the school's "primary athletic mark" used on team clothing and equipment that brings in significant revenue. He also suggested that the letters were more deservedly linked to the Trojans' warrior image than to "a goofy little chicken." read more

Man, Please

I haven't said much about the Clemson/Chicken game.

The Chickens had the better team this year -- no doubt about that. However, all of this crowing about that game being some sort of turning point in the rivalry is baloney.

The margin of victory Saturday (17 points) was the same margin of victory from last year's game when Clemson won, so take that turning point crap somewhere else. Was last year a turning point, too? Talk to me about a turning point after the Chickens beat Clemson back-to-back or three or four in a row as Clemson's been doing lately.

Clemson vs. Gamecock record since I've been alive:

Clemson 23

South Carolina 9

That's right.

...on to the ACC Championship Game

Soccer Liner played and won like you're supposed to -- by beating the man in front of you, not flopping around on the field like 5-month-olds. I have much more respect for the Chickens than I have for Gimmick Tech.

As I've mentioned, I have nothing but disdain for Paul Johnson's cut blocking in the trenches as a pillar of his system. Man up already!

During the game, if Georgia Tech happens to get a big play or scores because of their cut blocking gimmicks, I'm going to shout, "Georgia Tech blocks like girls!"






I wrote this after the first game, and after an entire season, Clemson still can't stop the draw:

Middle Tennessee could have scored several more touchdowns if they would have ran QB draws on every play. Clemson couldn't stop them; they were getting 5-8 yards every time they ran a QB draw.

Soccer Liner 2009

The 107th annual KFC bowl against the Soccer Liner Gamecocks will kickoff at noon.

Good. Early games usually negate home field advantage.

With Clemson about to win the Atlantic Division, I almost don't care if they lose to the Chickens. Almost.

It's All Smelley's Fault

Oh, Smelley lost the game for Soccer Liner, Clemson had nothing to do with it.

Wait a minute, I seem to remember three of Soccer Liner's best defenders absolutely whiff on CJ Spiller. See if you can spot Eric Norwood, Emmanuel Cook, and Captain Munnerlyn in this clip:

The State Newspaper is Confused Again

I'm having a good evening, can you tell?


Clemson has never played USC in football, by the way.

Cock 'N Fire

Dabo Swinney has now dispatched two NFL head coaches in a row (Virginia's Al Groh and Soccer Liner's Steve Spurrier), both of whom had two weeks to prepare for Clemson.

In fact, Clemson may have retired another Soccer Liner Legend, as Spurrier and his vaunted defense couldn't even beat Clemson's Wide Receivers coach.
