South Carolina has moved one of the best safeties in CFB, B. Williams to corner. Al Harris is the other, with safeties being Soph's Moody and Elder. Skai Moore won't start due to being punished for missing a shoulder treatment this week, but will play.

IDK how much this has to do with the line movement, but folks know the CB's of USC are suspect at best at the moment.

I thought you were on the Gamecocks Large and Thompson would have a way better game than Hill?

Obviously a typo on my part, yes, I am on the GameCocks large. And for the guy who thinks A&Sham breaks 20, there's some Pacific coast beach property waiting for you in Tulsa, where the heat and humidity more than rivals what's here in the Carolinas. Two hours and counting.

Go back and look earlier in this thread, I asked for anyone a little closer to Columbia when Moore would come in....looks like after first series, if that long, so don't read anything into that.

You act like it's a team from Alaska coming to play them. They'll be fine. Most likely will break 30. No way South Carolina can hold them under 20.

Not trying to diss another guy here, believe me, but eveyone needs to take a deep breath and think about the BIG picture tonight. Hill is stepping into the biggest QB shoes for several years (I was gonna step in some shit here and say "since RGIII," lol) and that alone is tremendous pressure on a guy that is not proven. Then, you take the fact that the guys he's gonna be throwin to aren't the same guys that pulled gold bars out of Johnny's ass every time it was in a crack. I took Clemson in that big opening night game last year because I thought home field was worth some good money and Georgia if I recall was around a 1 or 2 point favorite, I took the points and got the game. THIS is not as big, because nowhere as many people will be watching it on the SEScam Network (I don't even want to discuss my disappointment with that channel) as watched Georgia/Clemson on ABC, but it's still a big game to start the year. UNTIL A&Sham's D shows the country it has improved from being the 111th D in the country, guess freakin what, they're still the 111th D in the country. I could go on and on and put us all to sleep, but everyone place your bets, and may the best horse win. GL

I think A&M will try to run the ball and not put too much on Hill. They have a great stable of RB's and a really good line. WR's are very talented but unproven. The defense will always be a concern, but less so if they are able to run the ball effectively.
As far as the humidity goes, College Station is only about an hour outside of Houston and there is plenty of humidity there. Not an issue.
Think Carolina wins but am not anticipating a blowout.

I think its pretty safe to say that Temple was the play from 17 to 14. Mine is beat down to 12.5. I'm banking on Mason as a Defensive Coach spending a lot of time preparing this team to play well, and keeping the Defense off the field with a run game. If Temple controls the pace, I lose. But Under is what I played. I just think there is a huge unknown as to how good and how much time a rebuilt Offensive Line will be for Temple despite how good PJ is.....fact is they did what they had to do trying to outscore people last year and it produced a 2-10 year. They brought in a boat load of help for the Defense in the past class, including JUCO's so the question in my mind is....if it helped and they are better, will their game plan on Offense change from last year? The strategy for Temple this season must be different, it must produce winning results.

Am I that fucking stupid that I can't read a post? Let me answer....I guess I'm that fucking stupid. Been a long day, sorry.
