Im not totally up on all of the SC football history so if any SC fans care to respond, do so

2010 SECCG imo
Alibis, angles and tales from the tropics
Come to my mind, so easy and quick
Spacemen from Mars stole all of my money
I could play the game
The love me anyway.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it
That's my life and all that I got
Call me a liar, call me a writer
Believe me or not
Because of you... I walk the line
I'd say it is in the top three. the SECCG was huge, and beating Bama when they were ranked #1 was also big.Originally Posted by Dawgilicious
"As Clemson's founder, Tillman seemed to represent the very 'white savage' that he described in his speeches. Volatile, uncouth, missing an eye, and clad in unfashionable clothes, Tillman was easily seen as the embodiment of the Southern "poor white," a man with hatred for "the negro" flowing in his veins. Tillman represented an ignorant, intolerant white South that had seized the reins of power from a more cautious elite that, whatever its faults, had sought peace through compromise and accommodation." - Stephen Kantrowitz, Ben Tillman and the Reconstruction of White Supremacy
In terms of anticipation, it's up there.
Other big 'uns:
Rogers/Walker in Athens.
Carolina/FSU in '84.
Carolina/Clemson in '87.
Fun fact, we've managed to beat UGa twice when they were ranked in the top ten (1988 and 2000).
If we manage to win, it will be the highest average ranking (5.5) for any Carolina win. Others of note: UK in '07 (9.5), Alabama in '10 (10), UGa in '88 (10), Clemson in '87 (10)
Big enough to whip the puppies a 3rd straight year. And no, you aren't on Alabama's level so no it isn't
In terms of outcome, beating Lawrence Taylor's #3 Tarholes in Chapel Hill in '81 was also really big, but that's why I was talking about it in terms of anticipation. Both Bama and UNC were big upsets, but no one was talking about those games being huge in the run up. This week is special. I'm loving it.
It only takes a few seconds to learn.
GUMPS ARE COMIN' FOR YOUR WALLET!!!
Ok then, the biggest home game then? I mean the alabama game you guys were #18, im just curious but im not shocked that 312 has to be an *** about it, too bad 3 straight is your most accomplished feat in this series, a series we own
Yes, I say it's the biggest. The 2010 SECCG was big, but there were no national title implications for SC. FSU in 1984 was very big also. SC was 8-0 going into that game and won.
