What they are saying on the Gamecocks forum

[Capt Straight]

Game time change comments:

We can hope UT won't show up on time

Game will be over after 3 minutes.

Beamer is USC’s version of Derek Dooley, the Tennessee coach from 2010-2012. Son of a famous coach, a 5-7 or 6-6 coach, and essentially “nothing special”. The difference is that Tennessee got rid of Dooley after 3 mediocre years…and we celebrate mediocre with a mediocre bowl as some form of achievement. Waiting for the contract extension from the BOT for Shane.

Hard to believe this was Spurrier describing UT while he was winning 11 games here, “In Knoxville, they’re still doing cartwheels because they went 7-6 and won a bowl.”
I disagree. Old guys who can't hold their water and want to change coaches every five minutes is a bigger problem. Beamer may fail, or may not, no way to know without giving him a chance.
Looks like its working out well for Tenn

Look at the 2023 schedule. There might be 3 or 4 wins on that schedule. We've regressed significantly. Tennessee is going to hang 70 on this defense and we won't cross midfield against Clemson.

Can't find anything else so far​

Because they’re done.

CJH i think will keep everyone’s eye on the prize here. Weird things have happened in that stadium at night around Halloween when UT has played there. Need to stay sharp and handle business. It’s still an SEC road game against a rival (sortof).

 

[VFL92]

As long as we get out to a decent start, it'll be over quickly. We score 14 in the first quarter, their crowd will be silent and the game will be over.

 

[Boone&Crockett]

Its actually a good game to work on our crowd noise skills, they will be loud for a while anyway and we didnt look like we handled noise well against Georgia so I hope they use this game to work on some of those problems while having the benefit of playing a lesser opponent.

 

[AllVols]

Well with attitudes like these, at least we won't have to hear them on this board crowing like they are going to win or anything. They know their place.



Way behind us.

Because they’re done.

No they're not. I was over there lurking, I think, two days ago. There's more, not much, but more. You sort of have to hunt for it across threads.

 

[WillisWG]

Been there, done that. Never want to be there again. Don't feel bad for them, no, not one bit.

7. Carry the fight to our opponent and keep it there for 60 minutes.

 

[tobybeast]

Maybe Hooker will hang 50 on them and then Milton can hang 50 more....

 

[utvolpj]

It's going to read like the mizzou forums did last week. A better idea while be to compare their preseason feelings to today. That would be some fun reading

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

Hopefully the GameCuck fans that show up at the game are that defeated as well!

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

The Vols will be serving up freshly chocked chicken ala Beamer over a pilaf of stuffed Marshawn Lloyd biscuits smothered in Smokey Vols Gravy and overly tenderized Rattler nuggets!

 

[fossilfiction]

For a fanbase that doesn't embrace their coach on their forums, they are quick to defend ol' waterhead on Twitter every week.
I remember them in the preseason, beating their chest about their QB and how he will be awesome because look what Beamer did with a grad assistant at QB.
USC is dogshit.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

I'm so jaded. If we're not up by 14 by the 2nd qtr, I'm gonna worry. But, it's me. It's not them.

 

[orangemadam]

I really didn't think JH had a killer instinct with a commanding lead, but he has proven me wrong

UT 62
Cocks 17

 

[utvolpj]

They think we want rattler?

 

[volbound1700]

It is hard to hate the Gamecocks. I don't see their fans really talking trash like other teams. It was kind of fun when they had Spurrier because we hated Spurrier but the matchup is a meh one every year.

South Carolina has enough players to scare teams if that team just doesn't show up but they really don't have the players to beat us most years.

They seem to be destined to be a perennial 6-6 or 7-5 type team.

It is seeming like more and more, the team to hate for us is Georgia.

AGREE - at this point Heupel is just tricking the racecar out with new wheels and a flashy paint scheme for the CFP committee...style matters !!!

What on earth? JH doesn't have a killer instinct .... he goes for the jugular pretty often. He didn't against UF. I think he learnt

Lol at troll username and hot take.

This thread on their board is entertaining:

This is me too. South Carolina at night has been not great for us over the past few years, however their team is not good and we blasted them last year at home. I'm going to keep telling myself this during the game Saturday.
