No gamecock team has ever beaten a #1 or #2 ranked team in the country. Spurrier said he came here to take our program to places its never been. This was nearly accomplished in the heart breaking loss to Auburn a few seasons ago. But as the story of our beloved gamecocks go we came so close, but let it slip through our hands as Jared Cook dropped the sure TD pass to send the game to OT.
What better time to make history than now. As questions begin to swirl around our program the opportunity to make a program statement couldn’t be better. Win this game and our season is back on track, for the next couple of weeks at least. Win this game and we show progress, we accomplish another unimaginable goal, and do something here that has never been done before. Most importantly, win this game and we will shed our old images of the past and truly believe anything is possible. So how can we do it?
Here is how..
1. Its starts in the trenches, first and foremost our O-Line must give Smelley/ Garica enough time to read the field. Our D-line must take advantage of UGA’s only Offensive weakness the OL. Ladi is our difference maker here.
2. Will the Real Cock-n-Fire please stand up? We need another WR to step up and make plays. We cannot throw it to Cook, Saunders, and Lecorn all game. Joe Hills is our difference maker here.
3. Steal the “show,” Establish the run first& last. We need a big play from one of our backs by committee. Davis will take the bulk of the load but Maddox or Baker needs a 50 yrd TD scamper to give us a lift. Besides UGA’s defense is ranked in the 70’s. Baker is the most elusive back so I’m picking him as our Difference maker.
4. Everyone and their grand ma knows this one, Stop UGA’s Moreno period. Difference maker is Jasper, he has to have a huge game.
5. Finally stop Matt Stafford aka tell him you have tickets to Talladega or something… In seriousness I’ll take our DBs straight up vs him and his WRs. Its our strength vs theirs something is going to give. Whoever wins this battle will win the game. Captain is our difference maker here.
JR will never predict a loss its just not in him. You should never play a game thinking you will lose.
In an unbelievable game the Gamecocks actually up end UGA, 27-20.
