ESPN’s Chris Low writes today when asked about the gamecocks chances of winning the SEC EAST:
“I do think the Gamecocks will be improved on the offensive line. Steve Spurrier has been impressed by what he’s seen out of new offensive line coach Eric Wolford, who will also head up South Carolina’s running game. This much we know: The offensive line can’t get much worse. The Gamecocks didn’t run the ball very well last season, nor did they protect the passer. The defensive line, especially with the return of tackle Ladi Ajiboye from suspension, will again be strong. My biggest concern with the Gamecocks is all the young players they will be playing. They have no depth in the secondary and nobody behind Garcia should he get hurt. I like the Gamecocks’ chances to make it back to a bowl game, but I honestly don’t give them any shot in the Eastern Division race. Their schedule is one of the toughest in the league.”
Ouch, easy, give it to us with some sugar-coating next time b/c we know the reality we face but give us some hope b/c we are gamecocks fans (insert ‘wait till next year phrase’)….thoughts?
