Steve Spurrier called it fate; I call it the new reality!

This past Saturday the University of South Carolina did what only one other team in America has ever done, and that is, to defeat a number one ranked team in basketball, baseball and football in the same season.


If you remember, the South Carolina basketball team defeated number one ranked Kentucky in February 2010;  the South Carolina baseball team defeated number one ranked Arizona State in June 2010; and the South Carolina football team defeated number one ranked Alabama in October 2010.


After the football game, Steve Spurrier called it fate ... I call it the new reality.  I am not here proclaiming that South Carolina will will a national championship this year, nor am I guaranteeing an SEC crown, but no one will enter into Williams Brice Stadium thinking that South Carolina is a push over. The addition of Lattimore, Jeffery, and Sanders along with the brilliant coaching of legendary Steve Spurrier causes the moon over the state of South Carolina to shine even brighter, it causes the bomp bomp bomp in Sweet Caroline to be even sweeter, it causes the Croomers boiled peanuts to be even worse, and it causes the mustard in our barbecue sauce to be even saucier. 


Oh, it's great to be a Gamecock!
