How humiliating

That was a game that will live in infamy in Gamecock football lore. You will one day be able to tell your grandchildren the shame you witnessed.
The saddest part is we all knew 30-3 was not enough points to guarantee a win. I told a friend at halftime, “wouldn’t it be so “Carolina” for us to lose today” They said shut up lol. Life as a Gamecock. I finally got a life and these games don’t mean so much anymore. Now I waste that money I would have spent on football on doing things with friends family and fishing. I’m entering the portal as a fan. Ohio state seems like a great landing spot
Cheerleader Shane celebrating at halftime like the game's over.
What moron does that too in a hostile environment? Our excuse for a coach.

For some unknown reason, I thought we might kick a field goal at the end to win it, and crush TAM's playoff hopes.
As a Gamecock, I should have known better.

Same. Then Sellers took another sack to make it 4th and forever and you knew it was over.
Beamering has taken over Clemsoning in the dictionary.
No. Just no. At least keep your fandom in the South. We have lots of good football programs down here to choose from.
I remember playing pee wee football in the 4th,5th and 6th grades. I swear that our coaches acted more mature than Shane Beamer. Putting Shane Beamer in charge of driving our SEC car, is putting someone with blinders on, in charge of driving our car.
We've been witnessing Shame since the baseball coach hired him. I thank him for his fluke wins, but he SUCKS as a head football coach.
Agreed, I think he was very lucky and found “lightning in a bottle” with that D last year and Rocket Sanders. He may never win again in Columbia.
This is why Gamecock fans my age (62) or older are never comfortable, no matter what the opponent or what kind of lead we have. We sit back, waiting for the shoe to drop. Clapping harder makes no difference.
Second only to the '84 Navy loss in my book.
I'm right there with you in age. Life-long Gamecock. I wanted to believe at the half, but my heart and brain knew this could happen.
I believe Donati realizes by now that he has been saddled with a ZERO for Head Football Coach. Beamer will be fired next year. That said, I believe what is inevitable should be done immediately.
I hear they're going to move the USC - Clemson game to the cartoon network.

I told my wife at halftime to keep me from getting excited. During this time I was contemplating what could go wrong. My thought was, even if we didn't score in the 2nd half, we'd still win, as long as we didn't give up 28 points. I was not comfortable.
Never count out the other team facing Beamer.

We all had that nightmare scenario in the back of our heads but still thought surely something can go right for us in the second half and we win in the end. Nope. The nightmare became reality.
I was at the game. At halftime all the A&M fans were mad and upset. I told all that sat around me to relax. “Yall will win this game”. At the end they all patted me on the back and called me a prophet. I said I’m not. Just a lifelong gamecock fan.
Nothing since has matched navy, but this one….this one gave it a hell of a shot.
