Blog Fans, this year is the 24th anniversary of the Navy game. For those of you too young to remember that, let me bring you up to speed. In 1984, your South Carolina Gamecocks did the unthinkable. They started the season 9-0. 9 and 0! It was the best season in your oft-mocked program's history. After running out to such an incredible record, all they had to do was beat a 3-5-1 Navy squad to claim the program's first ever #1 national ranking. #1 Ranked Nebraska had already lost to Oklahoma. The Gamecocks were #2, facing Navy, and poised to grab the top spot and a likely trip to the National Championship game. That long wait was finally over, right? Wrong. Not only did the Cocks lose to a poor Navy team with a national title on the line, they got, as I like to say, taken behind the woodshed. 38-21 was the final score. It was the program's first opportunity ever to play for a national title, which it so dearly coveted on the heels of Clemson's untainted 1981 title, and they blew it......to Navy. So let's look at some stupid stuff Gamecock fans say.
On the upcoming season:
- I keep seeing all of these predictions for this season. Now I do agree that 8-9 wins is probable this year and a few bounces our way and a "big maybe" of 10 wins. I will go with the big maybe in my prediction. But what I don't understand is why all of the low point totals for our offense in all of these games. Is no one considering the fact of how great our defense will be which will give us great field position. The defense will create turnovers and score points as well. And what about special teams. Does no one on here think our special teams will be the most improved in the country?? Here are my score totals for the season.
NC State: WIN 34 - 13
Vanderbilt: WIN 31 - 20
Georgia: WIN 31 - 30
Wofford: WIN 41 - 7
UAB: WIN 48 - 10
Mississippi: WIN 27 - 10
Kentucky: WIN 34 - 17
LSU: WIN 24 - 21
Tennessee: LOSS 23 - 17
Arkansas: WIN 30 - 20
Florida: LOSS 41 - 31
Clemson: WIN 34 - 31
- I see us losing to Georgia and Florida going into the Clemson game 9-2. I see Clemson losing at least one to Alabama or Florida State, maybe both, being either 9-2 or 10-1 going into the last game. If we stay healthy, I like our chances for something special...I could also see us losing to LSU and Tennessee, too, if we have any critical injuries...
- 9 wins total including uga, clemson & bowl. I would call this a great season even if we do not make it to Atlanta. However our goal should ALWAYS be the SEC championship game.
- 14-0! I start out every year with this expectation. I dont know about ya'll but I never played in any game on any level where I didnt think we could win.
On Clemson's chances at an ACC title this year:
- NO way Clemson wins an ACC championship! No Fing way!
- I think they will lose 3 acc games and 2 SEC games. My sympathy to the choir.
- I think they lose to Bama, @Wake, @BC, @FSU and USC.
- Cullen Harper hasn't done anything impressive against a I-A team with a winning record. I say 3 losses is a best case scenario for them.
- Strength of schedule does factor into the equation. The other nine teams in the top ten would have to have two loses and Clemmons have to be undefeated for them to go to the national championship game!
On Tennessee(MUST READ!!):
- I really think we're going to be better than Tennessee in every phase of the game this time around. We outplayed them the last two years but managed to steal defeat from the jaws of victory.
- There's no excuse to lose this game this year.
- I think we take them behind the woodshed:)
- This is a game we should be winning every year. I hate UT!!! Football,basketball whatever. It was just another game we let get by us last year. They seem to do that to us every year. We are in it, but cant put the dagger where it needs to go(right through their orange hearts.)
- Gut feeling....this is the year we begin an annual domination of the other orange. Gamecocks by two touchdowns!!!!!!!
- I think we win by a decent margin. We should have dominated last year. We were the better team, we just made one too many mistakes. Hopefully the oline will play well, if they can, we win by at least two touchdowns.
- I think we win by at least Two td's and a fg.
- I say this game may be similar to missippi state last year with probably a similar score.
- My take is this; last season, only in my opion, Carolina only lost to Florida and Arkansas, the other games were given away. LSU was due to a serious injury to Mr. Brinkley. I am a die hard fan and pertaining to this UT game; Game Cocks with a win. I can't give you a score, but I'm sure it will be convincing enough for people to say we're on the move. As far as some of you say they will not have many impact players, again, I say Carolina gave that game away. So it doesn't matter who is on the field for ut, CAROLINA WILL WIN!!! This team has compotent players who WILL produce victories this year. I see a very impressive Wins number. Go Game Cocks!!!

A semi-daily look into the highly dysfunctional mindset of Gamecock fans everywhere.
Mission Statement
The basic purpose of this blog is to provide a place where fans of college football can congregate and make fun of South Carolina fans. To help facilitate this derision, I will post the best thoughts and quotes heard from Gamecocks fans on a daily basis. All quotes are taken directly. I won't correct spelling or grammar. My contributors and I have discussed it, and we feel doing so would undermine the service we are providing. These are all 100% real, and 100% gamecock. I will update the blog every Wednesday. There is never a shortage of the gamecock delusion we have all come to know and enjoy. So please visit often, and enjoy MOAG as much as we do.

haha! What a great story. If Carolina Football could be a bird, it would be a turdle dove. Keep up the good work MOAG. You are awesome.
Appreciate the kind words, anonymous. Thanks for reading.
I find it ironic that a Clemson fan writes a story on a choke-job by USC. I seem to remember a BC strolling into town last year. They had a better QB and O-Line on you..that's it. Should be the game to propel Clemson into the ACC Championship game. One problem. They're too good at choking. Game on the line. Deep pass to Aaron Kelley to put Clemson ahead and, in all probability, seal the deal. What does Clemson's All-Star WR do? Right through the hands like some freshman in high school. VT, my alumni, beats you like a red-headed stepchild every year. Luckily, you don't have to play us this year. I say that, but you might actually make it to the ACC Championship game this year. So we'll probably see you there. I won't be surprised if you choke, as usual. Who will it be? Maryland? Wake? FSU? I could go on, but I think history speaks for itself. Way to go. I'd really like to see you guys make it so VT can play you again. You might actually give us somewhat of a fight this time.
It's still funny reading this because Clemson's fanbase is too bias to see how they're too big of a choke job to do anything that anyone else, besides a Clemson fan, would flinch at. USC and Clemson both suck up South Caroliney. Enjoy your seasons.
But seriously, keep blogging on all this. It really is good material. It's just that it's funny hearing it all come from Clemson.
Keep on trucking.
Oh, and you're welcome.
Good luck this season. Maybe you have the talent now to not stumble. Now where have I heard that before?
Outstanding post, anonymous. When this thing gets big, I may consult you. You have the hate requisite skills. Don't be a stranger.
Oh, don't bother. I'll consult YOU. I don't have any doubts this site is going anywhere. I do hope things get "big" for you, I really do. Good luck.
Glad you enjoyed the post. Rock on in South Caroliney.
I don't see any irony in the comments by the Gamecock Faithful. They are confident in their team. What's the big deal?
You need to get a life, jerk.
It isn't about irony. It's about good old fashioned stupidity. Thank you for contributing.
What a freakin' great idea for a blog!
MOAG. Nice work. And, most of all, I love the fact that Cock fans continually talk about how they got screwed last year by LSU and UT. I had to go back and check the world wide interweb, and it informed me that "a loss is a loss, is a loss." So...keep on bitching about last year, SC, but find some more excuses as to why you can't win games.
Sincerely,
Hansolo Peterson
Hooray!
Typical Clemson fan to brush off the irony talk. I would too honestly. I can't think of too many other colleges who are that damn good at choking away big games. I'm sure there are a couple, but none with as bias and stupid fanbase as Clemson.
Sorry, South Caroliney. Just a sorry excuse of a state with two no good colleges. Stick out your chest proud though, both of you. It takes some balls to be fans of both your fanbases and to turn simple "Well, we're choke artists." into "Yeah, well you're stupid." USC not so much a choke artist as just a joke of a team. Don't take all the credit, USC. Your joke of a rival is only two hours away. Enjoy your games this year.
" I think we win by a decent margin. We should have dominated last year. We were the better team, we just made one too many mistakes. Hopefully the oline will play well, if they can, we win by at least two touchdowns"
Can someone explain to me why this is what you would consider a dumb statement. I think your stretching a bit.
You really need that explained to you? South Carolina lost the game, yet this fan thinks they "should have dominated." South Carolina couldn't even score a touchdown in a home loss to Vanderbilt, yet they should have dominated Tennessee?
I consider it a dumb statement because it's a dumb statement. Your statement was dumb too. Dummy.
Truthfully, I don't even know what irony means.
I just like thinking things and then transfering those thoughts to the internet.
USC Losing a game. Imagine that.
Clemson with epic failures for coaches choking away and losing games like high school kids.
All seems right in the joke of a state people call South Carolina.
"South Carolina couldn't even score a touchdown in a home loss to Vanderbilt, yet they should have dominated Tennessee?"
Number one Every football team in the country goes through a game where you can't score. For Clemson it was georgia tech, and i know ur gonna give me the GT is better than Vandy but even so its the same situation, Clemson was the better team and they beat you. Hello Clemson lost to DUKE a few years ago. Its football thats why you play the game. And we were so terrible last year, and yet it took a last second field goal for you guys to beat us last year. What does that say about your team barely beating a "terrible" football team. and for this stupid ass sentence:
"I consider it a dumb statement because it's a dumb statement. Your statement was dumb too. Dummy."
Good choice of words, came straight from a text book right? The reason that statement didnt seem so bad to me was because i didnt feel like reading your five paragraphs of bull shit leading up to the comment. And for someone so smart as yourself, i would really like to know how much you actually know about the game of football.
USC seriously got shut out at home to Vandy? Wow, I thought that was some urban myth made to make me laugh.
Of course then I just think about South Carolina and their two "big time" colleges, and that makes everything kinda come together nicely.
I think USC and Clemson should just join colleges two create one big one, combine the players together, and join your joke fanbases together. You two obviously belong together. And with the talent you two combine, you might actually do something as a football team (not really).
What in god's holy name are you blathering about?
I'm not blathering about anything in "God's holy name."
Little bit over the top there, hoss.
Take it outside, God boy.
No need. I just thought it was funny how over the top you went just to wonder what I was "blathering" about. I could picture a South Carolinian doing it, too. What a joke.
#7 you still havent answered my question, i want to know how much you actually know about the sport of football. Do you know the game or r u one of those guys who sits in the stands on saturdays and thinks he knows the game because he watches it? We know you can run your mouth but seriously other than being a douche, what are ur qualifications?
I'm sorry I didn't see your question, anonymous. Yes, I did play football. I played tail end on offense, and defensive specialist on defense.
Were you recruited by any team worth anything (meaning not Clemson and USC)?
"I'm sorry I didn't see your question, anonymous. Yes, I did play football. I played tail end on offense, and defensive specialist on defense."
So you know nothing about football, but you are an expert at where to find the best porn on the internet and the best brand of lube.
"So you know nothing about football, but you are an expert at where to find the best porn on the internet and the best brand of lube."
That doesn't make since at all.
Thanks and goodnight.
I mean, sense.

Just kidding. It does.
