Dang. You guys sure know how to turn my woos into looking for a bridge. I know you’re right. That‘s why it’s so sad. But Beamer is giving me real hope that brighter days are ahead.
I think we would’ve gotten it in FB in ‘84. Several things hurt us in that Navy game, but I think Carl Hill’s being out (don’t remember exactly why) and our RB‘s broken leg (was is Hagood or Dendy?) were a big part of it. But that team had the magic to beat anyone in ‘84.
Losing to that barnyard school six years running. A global pandemic. The Will Muschamp Era. And now we might have a war with Russia. But we did win the Mayo Bowl! And hopeful for this coming season. If we’re all still here. Go Cocks!
I'm sowing a bunch of feathers together, covering them with wax, and jumping off the top of something really high. I sure hope this works. Look up, my fellow Gamecocks, I might be soring above your house one day.
That loss to Navy still breaks my heart. That was a special year. I realize Spurrier did more. But in my opinion, he never re-created the "magic" that was 1984!
