Living in SC and for most of my adult life, and I am not a SC backer or hater just a college football fan, South Carolina seems like they are playing against some dark force or curse against them. Whether it is a penality at a crucial time in the game, a turnover that most high schoolers would not make, or some other sort of mental letdown, it always seems to get the better of them. It is like when a golfer shoots 6 under on the front nine, has a triple bogey on number ten and plays bogey golf the remaining nine holes and still shoots 6 over for the day. If South Carolina can ever get this "Gorilla" off their backs, they they might have some wind in their sails.
The only defensive starter for SC who is injured is DT Pepper. He's listed as questionable. And I think it's probably big for him to play. If he can't then they definitely need SC's other DT Ajiboye, who was listed as starting DT at the start of the season, but was suspended for the first 3 games of the season. His status is still unclear for this game whether he will play. I would think if Pepper can't go then Spurrier will have to bring in Ajiboye. If they both play then it makes SC's defense extra tough for Ole Miss and their semi-rebuilt O-LIne to run on. One thing that hasn't been mentioned here is SC's defense is faster than greased lightning. And they can be very tough to beat at home. Plus we have a team getting points at home, who has played 2 BCS teams on the road as opposed to Ole Miss two non-BCS, FCS opponents. Big difference in the level of competetion that each of these teams have played against so far.
Don't mean to rain on your parade but did you factor in the "cupcakes" that Ole Miss has played? SOS plays a big part on how your stats matches up teams against each other. So. Carolina has played a pretty good scheule thus far. At home on a week nite, So. Carolina will give a good hard battle & I wouldn't be surprised if this "live" dog wins SU. GL & aloha to you.
If you go along with your board name, you will be playing OM. The public will be all over SCar. The post above is his personal ranking as he stated.
OM has played a real bad schedule so far, SC's is just bad.
If GA scored 41 on them, I have to believe OM will move the ball. I believe the only advantage that SC has is home field. We will see on Thursday. I am excited to watch it.

Ole Miss has a cupcake 2nd level Defense
the Dline is nice but the LBs are not
Memphis game was a lot closer then final score indicates
they ran all over Ole Miss
I have thought Ole Miss was overrated from the get go and this may not the game they lose but just wait for LSU and Bama

I just hate when people are blinded by their own vision. Perception is real deceiving... PEOPLE! Just look at the statistics. Statistics don't lie. So Carolina has put up good if not better numbers than Ole Miss has, and their SOS is way way way harder. Numbers DO NOT LIE!!! Don't get me wrong, I think Ole Miss is every bit as good, but they will def be in a slobberknocker this Thursday nite. If they do win, I believe that they will only win by a FG. GL and aloha from Hawaii.
Opened at 4.5, I got it at 4. Looks like it's at 3 now.
