Even a coach who loves passing as much as Steve Spurrier knows there are times his South Carolina team must run the ball to win games. The sixth-ranked Gamecocks discovered that Saturday night against Kentucky. Trailing 17-7 at halftime and held to just 26 yards on the ground, South Carolina outrushed Kentucky 174-7 in the second half and scored 31 unanswered points for a 38-17 victory.
Watched this one up until the half, and South Carolina looked like sh*t. I'm sorry, but the SEC is very top-heavy and overrated. Georgia and USC are good teams, but let's wait before we anoint them top 6 programs. It seems like people are in a hurry to resurrect the SEC East, when in reality, the SEC is still a two team league (Bama and LSU), with a handful of above average programs programs that are far overranked.
