South Carolina as well as Mizzou will be downgraded from their already mediocre 2015 efforts. Anyone who thinks we lose to either of those teams we beat last year in 2016 is just being too cute with their miserableness.

USC and Mizzou represent two good opportunities to win, but as we all know, nothing is given to you in this league and to beat even the lowest teams, you have to go out there and bring your A game to convert those opportunities to Ws. No more EKU type efforts.

I have considered SC as UK's primary SEC "peer program" ever since they joined the conference in 1992. By that I mean both schools have a long history of great fan support despite very mediocre football. Head to head competition with UK was initially even but under the guidance of first Holtz, then Spurrier, the Chickens did what I had hoped UK could do and that was "dominate their peers" and become a respected contender in the SECE. Given Muschamp's mediocre performance at FL it will be interesting to see how he fares at SC. SC is a lot like UK in that one bad hire can undo a decade's worth of good work.

Conner was running #3 QB this spring and likely would have had little impact on SC season. Nothing is a walk over but, right now, there is no real reason to think this SC team will be as good as what UK has beaten the past 2 years. JMO.
