Ask any fan of Carolina or Clemson what the most important game is ( in our hearts)Sounds like a typical Clemson fan...where were you when y’all were losing 5 in a row...guess you were trying to grow a pair then.

And the "trap" being ?I think it is the other way around. SEC didn’t fall for their trap.
We will be so depleted after playing 10 SEC Conference games that the last thing we need is to play Clemson.
If the state enacts a law requiring the game be played, the SEC can’t do anything. Laws overrides any rule by the conference. They also cannot retaliate against us without breaching our contract
No one on here is going to like this, but the hard cold truth of the matter is that the ACC out maneuvered the SEC by adding the +1.
Now it is up to the SEC to either back-peddle, or have to uncomfortably explain why they will not allow the in-state rivalry games (UGA-GT, UK-UL,UF-FSU, USC-CLem)
I have to grudgingly admit, Well played ACC.
76...is that old enough or maybe too old.How old are you? This rivalry is one of the most important aspects of this state, and goes way past winning streaks by either team. Ebbs and flows like I said. If you can’t understand that, you probably aren’t actually old enough to have grown a pair.

I’ve seen a lot. Clemson let us leave the ACC when they had indicated they would leave too. I have lived here all my life and have been to many of the games. I speak for me and no one else....the rivalry means nothing to me. We’re in the SEC they’re in the ACC. We owe our loyalties to the SEC, not Clemson.
ThanksUnderstood friend. Thank you for the thorough response.
What's the reference to 1952 in the OP? There have been bills written but to my knowledge they never passed.Now may be a time for the SC Legislators to make the game mandatory by law.

“We are disheartened to hear today that South Carolina announced they will not be allowed to play Clemson in the 110th-consecutive year of the historic rivalry game which began in 1896. In 1952, the State Legislature insured that despite unfortunate Conference decisions, the game would go on.
With President Caslen, Director Tanner and Coach Muschamp’s statements today expressing the importance and desire to play this game, Clemson University plans to provide assistance- and feel confident that with our unified efforts, the game can be played and any risks can be mitigated.
Therefore, Clemson University has notified the Atlantic Coast Conference to add the University of South Carolina Gamecocks as Clemson’s 11th opponent to fill our out-of-conference game this Fall. We look forward working with our friends in Columbia- both at The University and State House, if necessary, to work out the details. Go Tigers!
I say sue the SEC or better, go ahead and play the game after the 10 game season... It can be our bowl game, seeing how Muschamp lost out 3 sure wins, our season looks as if we will win 3 games in the SEC...
Not with the SEC.Clemson has as much leverage as any P5 program right now.
We should play our rivals, period. What is wrong with y'all.Why would we want to go to Clemson and play this year? Helps them, hurts us barring a major upset. Good riddance. Let their fans get excited about playing Boston College and Pittsburgh.
I wish Clemson thought like that. Giving up after 5 in a row. They wouldn't have those Crystal footballs.I didn't watch this past year because I knew the outcome. I feel the same this year. Not speaking for everyone I just dont like taking the abuse anymore.
