So, basically what you're saying is that you would like for us to NOT refer to South Carolina as USC?
The ONLY people who refer to SC as USC are the fans on this board. In the real world ive never heard of them referred to as anything other than SC. Yet on this board I always see USC. Which is just *** backwards to me because everyone outside these boards says SC.

You might want to do your homework there homer before you open your mouth and put your foot in it! South Carolina was before Southern Cal and referred to as USC before Southern Cal therefore, they are the original USC!
Ok say what you will. But outside these boards I've NEVER. EVER EVER EVER. Heard South Carolina being referred to as USC. EVER. Which is why it's so weird to me that I see USC on these boards but if you talk to the casual fan in Lexington you hear nothing but SC in reference to South Carolina. Have never heard them called USC by the casual fan in Lexington. Only on these boards have I seen that reference.

I'm a CAT fan but I live in South Carolina.....They are very commonly refered to as USC!
But on a lighter note....who gives a FLYIN' FLIP dude? One of our 2016 recruits Tweeted out "I will be playing football at Kentucky University"! Who cares?

I don't know why people do that - I mean it IS the University of South Carolina. I mean, gosh, why are people so stupid to shorten the University of South Carolina to USC? I don't even know where they get tha.....oh, wait. Nevermind. SMH at OP (for about the 1,475th time).
Andre, if nothing irks you more then someone referring to SC as USC, then I have my doubts that YOU are using common sense. I guess I don't understand what is the outside world, because I thought the SUN "rose and set" on my beloved state, called KENTUCKY. I've traveled ALL over the world as an airline pilot, but KENTUCKY is the best, and regardless of whether they refer to University of South Carolina as USC or SC, the people of Kentucky are the GREATEST. Don't get your "Panties in a wad." It will cause you to have a stroke. When you get my, and grumpyolddawg's age, this will not seem like a BIG deal. LOL

OLD STOLL FIELD GUY!
Never in all my years of living in the great state of Ky have I heard a fan refer to SC as USC. Can you really disagree with that willie? Have or have you not ever heard a UK fan refer to SC as USC in Lexington or KY in general? Even one time have you? I could care less as to what they refer to themselves as. But I've never once heard in Lexington, a casual fan of any team, refer to SC as USC. Not on single time. Outside of these boards have you ever heard a casual fan in Lexington refer to SC as USC? If you say you have then I just don't believe you man. It just doesn't happen. They're universally known as SC in KY. Always have been, always will be. If an SC fan comes here. They'll have UK fans ask them if they are SC fans, not USC fans. That's just what they're referred to as in KY. I have never one time outside of these boards heard someone call them USC, not one freaking time. And if you say you have then that's a damn lie and you know it. I could give a flying eff what they and the writers refer to them as.

They do what they want I don't care what they do. But in the great state of Ky, outside of these boards, have I ever ONCE heard of them being called USC. In fact when I first came to these boards and would see someone talk about USC. I was confused because I always assume they were talking about SoCal, eventually I figured out what they meant, and never understood it because in all my glorious years in this great, have I once heard of SC being referred to as USC. I just have never heard it. I don't care what they call themselves, I don't. They can do what they want. But outside of Columbia they're probably reffered to as SC almost nationwide minus a couple places. As far as I know though as to what I can speak for. I've never once heard a casual fan in KY refer to them as anything else than SC. Not one freaking time. It just doesn't happen. On this board I see it, but that's it I never hear it said by casual fans in Lexington ever. I've always saw USC and thought SoCal on these boards til one day I noticed they were talking about SC. And it forreal blew my damn mind. They might call themselves that. But I've never heard them called that before. Never. Not til these boards at least.

The proper way down south to refer to them is South Cackalacky or just Cackalacky. I lived in Georgia for many years. I'm sure Grumpyolddawg will confirm, lol. Of course, it can refer to North Carolina as well.

Hey keep me out of this one, but you did ask and yes that's how they are referred to in Georgia, and Alabama too.

Look....I'm a UK fan as well....but do you actually believe that nonsense? And UK belongs in the SEC? When is the last time we went 12-1 in back to back seasons? You sir are a nut job!

South Carolina is not a founding member of this conference and has an Alabama mindset and a vandy trophy case. Outside of superior trying to make them relevant they've got nothing. In basketball they're irrelevant. College baseball is largely irrelevant, and I played it. Love the game, but it is.

USCjr. Is what they are. They are what we thought they were.

Are you referring to Steve Superior? I believe it's spelled Spurrier..... lol....wow. And what does UK's football trophy case look like? This is a football forum.....and you bring in basketball! I'm talking football here! If you think UK football has a richer tradition than USC football, well, sir, you are delusional! I'd say they're on equal playing field! Knocking USC and Vandy to try to make yourself feel better about our football program at Kentucky is frankly adolescent!

Well we have at least a share of title in football and 3 SEC titles.

South Carolina is a joke. Always has been always will be. Irrelevant compared to the big dawgs in both sports that matter.

Deal with it, "UK"inSC.

How many heismans does Uk have in it's trophy case? And a share of a title???? C'mon man, that was before we were born, and actually was never official.....Someone just said much later that if there had been such thing as a national championship UK Might have won it!!! You're kidding yourself dude! UK will lose to USC tomorrow and then you can find someone else on here to plagiarize! Deal with that F**K Face!

You mistake me for a USC fan....I am a UK fan thru & thru, but UK has never achieved a 12 win season, produced a heisman trophy winner and I could go on and on.....for you to say they are more relevant in the SEC than USC is retarded! They have been the bottom feeders of the SEC since I can remember (50 yrs old) and have struggled to stay on par with Vandy that entire time!! Your argument does not hold water dude!

They are not USC, I don't understand why I see them refferred to as USC so often here, considering there can only be one USC. That would be like calling Kansas UK. The Trojans DO NOT play in the SEC. So please you all do me a favor and please stop referring to SC as USC. I feel like they take that as a sign of respect which is weird because no one calls them USC besides maybe there fans and us and that's it. I believe we're the only fanbase (not even our fanbase refers to them as this just the ones on these boards) that refers to them as USC, that's not what it is though. It is simply SC. USC is a relevant football school known as the Trojans. SC is South Carolina. They're not both USC. And plus SC is not very relevant in any sports. But please. For me. For yourself considering they don't deserve that kind of respect they're irrelevant in everything. Don't call them USC. Nothing irks me more than SC being referred to as USC. I've never seen them refferred to as USC in my entire life til I saw these boards. NEVER. In the outside world I NEVER hear ANYONE call them USC. So can we please just get it straight and call them what they are, which is SC. Please and thank you. This is what everyone outside of Wildcat Lair refers to them as. So why not follow suit and use commons sense? I don't understand why these boards refer to them as USC yet everyone else in America refers to them as SC. So can we just follow along considering there's only one USC, the same way there is only one UK. Please and thanks.

LOL, not relevant in baseball? Not relevant in women's hoops. Not relevant in football at 11-2,11-2,11-2 and a no 6, 7 and no 4 final ranking in 2011, 2012, and 2013. Back to back national titles in baseball, SEC titles multiple times, final 4 and undefeated and regular season SEC titles in women's hoops. Not relevant has pounded Kensucky 13 or the past 16 football games. We used to celebrate at USC when we won 6 football games and went to the liberty bowl so we get it Kensucky.

South Carolina is garbage. We have more football history and tradition than that school. Their fans are almost as delusional as UofL and Tennessee fans. They had a couple exceptional years under Spurrier but if you look at history those couple years are the outlier, not the norm. That school is a historically mediocre program..always have been, always will be. They're not even a true SEC program. Maybe we can trade them and Vandy for a couple schools from the ACC?

Why, even that city college that is an athletic factory calls itself a University! Didn't they just shut down the "University" for a football game the other week, and don't they have another Thursday night game and another one on high school football's night later on this year?

South Carolina put some nice seasons together under SOS, that's a fact. But Baseball isn't relevant to 90% of schools who have teams. It is to teams like South Carolina, Vandy and a couple other teams in the conference and some spread out across the country. But the vast majority of college sports fans can't tell you who won the NC this past season. Its right there with Tennis and golf.

They're "Carolina." They put "Carolina" on their FB jerseys. Their helmet has only a "C" w/a chicken. I went to school in the lowcountry, my wife's family is from and many attended U of SC and many gamecock fans and rivals from Clemson within the state refers to them as "Carolina." Ironically, North Carolina (UNC) fans get their dander up over references to USC being "Carolina" however they seem to include "North" in front of their "Carolina" on uniforms and and "N" interlocked with the "C" on FB helmets.

It's called a tongue in-cheek, self-deprecating parody of the OP

Yea can you read? On these boards I see USC here and there. And real life in the real world I've never once seen it, not a single freaking. Hence the thread????? As to why the board needs to get with the program because no one in KY outside these boards refer to SC as USC.

College Baseball is as irrelevant of a college sport as I've ever seen. Go to a UK baseball and you'll be able to count all the fans on one hand, and all those fans are parents, actually have a friend who played baseball at UK and said the treatment between baseball and FB and BB players from the university is night and day. NO ONE CARES ABOUT COLLEGE BASEBALL. I can't believe this was even said on these boards.

baseball? You freaking kidding me right now? We talking bout baseball? Baseball? Really now baseball? I couldn't care less about college baseball that's the most irrelevant college sport in all the land, and I have no idea who won the title this most recent year in baseball, or the year before or the year before. No clue. And women's hoops? This has to be joke we're bringing up women's sports now? Yea man our cheerleading team has more titles than your university. You think I care?

better troll if it wasn't old as the hills. It's all so boring now.

Obligatory response: "Big talk from the fan of the program that is 3-13 in the last 16 meetings."

Sadly, I think you have a good chance to leave tonight with a three game winning streak.

So can we just follow along considering there's only one USC, the same way there is only one UK. Please and thanks.
Sorry you get so upset over this. South Carolina was USC over 100 years before Southern Cal was founded. We have every right to refer to ourselves as USC.
