Which is more embarrassing for UofSuC Football?


Aug 24, 2020, 6:28 PM

@Scooter thankfully points out that the USA Today poll has UofSuC (#53) barely beating out Charlotte (#54), even though UofSuC had a 110 year head start in building its "program" (Charlotte started its program in 2013 versus 1903 for the Coots).

But is that worse than UofSuC coming in all of 34 places behind a team, UAB, that stopped playing football for 2 complete years and with this being only their 4th year back playing competitively?

Or is it worse that UofSuC is also behind a long string of schools who only recently started playing FBS Football (being traditional FCS schools, with only 2 of these teams actually moving up before UofSuC became a member of the vaunted SEC):

UCF, 1996, #9
App State, 2014, #13
Louisiana Lafayette, 1978, #22
Western Kentucky, 2010, #27
Arkansas State, 1992, #33
Middle Tennessee, 2000, #36
Louisiana Tech, 1989, #39
Georgia Southern, 2014, #40
Marshall, 1997, #42
Florida Atlantic, 2006, #46
Troy, 1993, #49

The ignominy of UofSuC Football is the gift that just keeps on giving.

Aug 24, 2020, 6:55 PM [ in reply to yeah but they have a new QB coming next year ]

the Spring season for Blue States or the traditional fall season?

I hope that "real deal" QB isn't too attached to CussChamp..

Assuming uof6c can save-up enough money for the buyout, ole Will may not survive past December.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

Weren’t the last 10 or so QB’s the “real deal?” At least that’s what they said.

Actually it's even worse for the chicklets. South Carolina started playing foosball in 1892 not 1903. Yikes!!!

I think we're still waiting for UofSuc to start playing football.

+1 for the word ignominy Now coots won't understand it, but that makes it that much better. They are the gift that keeps on giving.

I think that’s a little unfair to them. Cause they didn’t win their first bowl game til the 90’s. The 1990’s, not the 1890’s. Now that’s embarrassing.

Good article,but you are wrong on one of these schools;Troy!
They had a great football team back in 1193 B.C.

you're right, my bad! but hey, in either case it was in what


Aug 25, 2020, 1:29 PM

I term the "modern era of College Football".

You know, sometime after the University of Georgia won a National Championship.

I think they were undefeated and ranked their highest #2 , when Navy beat them one year (1984).

Losing to a Small military school twice in 25 yrs...

ooooh, I think this point is very interesting... seriously


Aug 25, 2020, 5:00 PM

what would UofSuC be ranked if they were allowed to be ranked in a FCS poll? Would they even be Top 10?

As you say, given their history, maybe not?
