Wow.

Let me just enjoy this commercial break for a moment. Is this what it feels like to be a Florida fan?

Wow...

How’d that messed up punting formation work out for you NC State?

Not great im afraid

Ugh.

Just awful. If I never here the phrase “push off” again it will be too soon.

a good start (compared to usual (think vandy last year)). Like to see a bit of jarvis giles, maddox looks strong though. Go Cocks!

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

In defense of the people

who hope that your defense fell off… NC State isn’t really helping themselves.

If you can,

Rewind and watch that play a few times. Look at Holloman’s head. He eye’s the ball and times it perfectly. GREAT play.

You have reason to.

Your team is running the ball very well. Garcia has been unimpressive, but it’s really early.

by Juco All-American on Sep 3, 2009 7:40 PM EDT up reply actions  

Inimperssive,

but not soul-shatteringly inconsistent. For it being the opener, I’m happy so far.

ugly 7-0 at half

SC Defense playing great. Both offenses have lots of corrections to make at half.

happy to be winning. SC has held NC State scoreless now for 6 qtrs

Hope you don't mind my asking, because I'm honestly not trying to talk trash

But is your OL okay? Because we’re down two starters and another guy on the two deep on the DL.

We just lost a man in the first quarter

but it does seem to be faltering, i fear for Russel Wilson

Halftime

Garcia and the offense have to do better. If we lose this game, it’s on them. You can’t get that many opportunities — in their territory four times — and not cash in. Losing shouldn’t even be possible after that.

I like Maddox.

The defense appears to be doing fine. Either that, or the N.C. State offense is way overrated. It’s too early to tell right now, but it looks like it’s just as likely to be the latter as the former.

Brian Maddox

Anybody know where he’s been? I hope he’s not hurt.

announcing is tragic. Every single time Toney Baker gets the ball they mention his knee injury and 2 year absence. and now “These are SEC refs, i’m not inferring anything, just saying” oooo really, i think you are insinuating something bud

by HireMattMillen on Sep 3, 2009 9:50 PM EDT reply actions  

i agree, but it did possibly save a touchdown

i was mostly getting angry at his references to Baker’s life story on every play

I don't blame the defender at all.

In that situation, you make sure to tackle him, no matter what it takes.

A win is a win is a win...

is a win. Ugly game but we won. I’m ecstatic. Only one turnover the entire game? Awesome. The play clock winding down was never a concern. Garcia may have botled a little much, but let’s remember he’s still a sohpomore. He has shown clear improvemen over the off-season, and that’s really what I was looking for. I haven’t even mentioned the much improved running game yet. I don’t think we were lucky to win this. Both teams played poorly in some aspects, but we earned this victory. Be happy Gamecock fans, I am.
