Lol. Well, that's kind of what I was thinking, but I didn't want to disparage Illinois. The crowds in Williams-Brice aren't quite what they used to be due to TV and a recent change in pricing structure for season tickets, but unless the team is in a death spiral by the time of your visit, I think we'll have a pretty good crowd for the Missouri game. The prior two games are on the road, so our fans should be hungry for some football.
After my 1st semester, my roommate and I made plans to move in and return from holidays as soon as we were allowed. Being on campus with nothing to do? We loved that! It’s the only time in my life when I had such freedom (within reason of course).
Get accustomed to your daughter yelling "GO COCKS!" often. 
Check out the State Museum to get a feel for our state's long history. The Spanish were the first Europeans here (Port Royal (on Parris Island) and Winyah Bay (Georgetown)) in early 1500's, the French after that, then the British. A lot to absorb.
Join the rest of us and get a Palmetto and Crescent Moon sticker for your car (at least her car) to fit in. You will see them everywhere here. Anybody from South Carolina instantly recognizes it as a tie to our state. It's from our state flag and is connected to the Revolutionary War. Fort Moultrie, Charleston Harbor was fortfied with palmetto trees. The moist, fibrous wood didn't splinter when hit by British cannon balls. The native palmetto defeated the "Mighty Oak" of the British fleet.
Get to know South Carolina BBQ. Great mustard based BBQ in the Columbia area. Arguably (and I do mean arguably) the best is Rodney Scott's BBQ, and other vinegar and pepper based BBQ from areas halfway towards Myrtle Beach and Charleston from Columbia. Rodney has a new restaurant in Charleston, if you make it there.
Note about band, they sit near the northeast ramp (closest corner to campus) going to the upper deck. You can get a good, close view of the band from the ramp, before exiting unto the upper deck concourse.

I do remember him. Schools like Illinois are better off taking 2 star guys from the south than 4 star guys from instate. Just better players and the rating systems can't use all the 4 and 5 star ratings in the south, although they should.
