spurlid's comment was snide. Dabo's was banter done in very good taste, and it very complimentary. I am not the least bit surprised. Both are running true to form.

listening to Beavis and Butthead; their both acting a little juvenile. Maybe it's wrong of me, but I will never acknowledge anything in Southern California over something in my beloved South Carolina, even if it means recognizing the coots as USC. I might root against the coots, but at least their from South Carolina.
I'll sit back and wait for the bashing to begin.

It would have been the same with Tommy Bowden too, as I remember, he claimed Steve Spurrier "must be smoking something" b/c he had rated us so low in a coaches poll.
Keep giving back Dabo! However, we need to win this year!!

that make rivalries good. I wouldn't be surprised to find out they planned this together to try and dredge up more interest in the rivalry. I don't think they did. REALLY I don't, but the notion doesn't surprise me. I like the jabs. This is what a rivalry is supposed to be.

Spurrier does this with teams he wants rivalries with.He loves playing in big games and knows how to set them up.He has said this more than once.Clemson needs to embrace this instead of crying foul.Look at the teams he does it to and take it as a complement. FSU,Tenn.Ga.Clem.

accurately pointing out your head coach is a jack ###. That's irrefutable. Clear?
And by the way, why do you continue to pretend to be a Tiger? Either you're embarrassed to be a cocklover, or you're mentally ill. So which one is it?

For the record, Clemson had Death Valley ~40 yrs before LSU.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_Stadium_(LSU)#Testimonials In the 1980s, a reporter called [LSU's] Tiger Stadium "DEAF Valley," as a play on words relating to Clemson's "Death Valley," which was coined as such in the 1940s by an opposing coach.
Bleacher Report ranked our Death Valley #1: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1145292-power-ranking-all-124-college-foo tball-stadiums#/articles/1145292-power-ranking-all-124-college-football-stad iums/page/125
Nobody outside the state of South Carolina refers to Univ. of South Carolina as "USC". The standard abbreviation used by sports tickers and people everywhere else in the country is "SCAR".

WAS a Southern Cal. It's not as though Stephen Orr Spurrier really believes that Clemson isn't Death Valley, or that Clemson copied the name.
He's poking fun. Glad to see Dabo poking back. It makes for a better rivalry.

Spurrier has never mentioned Clemson by name, just one small jab about a stadium name. Dabo goes off on a butthurt rant and calls the entire University out--not just the coach or the team. He then talks about the Gamecocks again today. Spurrier never mentioned Clemson, just a stadium, and he is classless? Looks like Dabo is the one that takes things over the top and lacks class

Que tigernet up for yet another month or two of "USC is in California" comebacks.
Kinda funny Spurrier is the lowest of the low with one little jab, yet when Dabo responds he's a hero. Can't work both ways.

You mean to tell me that Clemson fans like their coach and don't like the rival team's coach?
You're coming to a Clemson website to complain about how Clemson fans are talking on it. According to you, Spurrier can make comments, but Dabo isn't allowed to offer a rebuttal.
By the way, it's "queue".

over-reaction to Spurrier compared the joy you feel after Dabo talks that "smack."
Dabo can say whatever he wants, I happen to find the entire ordeal quite hilarious considering Dabo really doesn't have much room to talk. I think the performance on the field has done enough talking, looking forward to November.

the talking. If I'm not mistaken, didn't he say he looked forward to playing Georgia at the beginning of the season b/c you could count on them having a few players suspended? I'm sure there's more but I don't make it a point to follow Spurrier's words...
Dabo simply doesn't say that about any of his opponents. He's a bit more classy. Spurrier on the other hand, deserves whatever smack get thrown his way.

Actually, Spurrier's "jab" didn't bother me one bit. It's nothing compared to what I hear from SCar fans when I'm ordering my fries. I admit that it makes for a fun rivalry though. I like it. I want the nation to take notice of it.

remember when the Coots hated Steve Spurrier , back in the 19 hundred 90's when he was beating them like a rented plow mule on a regular basis. They cried and moaned and hated and hated. Short term memory is a fine attribute ... if your a soldier in the front lines. Poor Coots , they would sell thier children for a respected football team , but unfortunately hiring a smirky , sh!t heel like Steve Spuurts only temporarily delays the inevitable fall back into being USuC.

I agree. YOu would think TDP or Woody would have sit him down and tell him this i.e. don't respond.
Tell him about coaches like John Cooper who won a bunch of games, but could never beat their rival, and what happens as a result.
Let your players' helmets do the talking. You have finally made a bright decision by letting the D tackle the scout team at practice. If they keep getting tougher, then may have a chance to slip up on them in NOv.
