Bring back those UNIFORMS! why do we wear white on our home field?

@bridaco No, Scott was a horrible coach. He won with Wood's players and left our program in the tank when he left. I have a ton of hate for that cocksucker, especially when Clemson carried his fat ass off the field after they beat us in 1999 and he was an assistant there. It was like he was shoving his ineptness in our face.

In my opinion this was the best Gamecocks team ever. Even better than the '84 team. So much talent on both sides of the ball. Had UGA beat or tied at worse until Green fumbled on the 2. Turnovers gave Nebraska that particular game, and took the eventual National Champion Hurricanes down to the wire. Didn't show up for the Gator Bowl against LSU unfortunately, but still USC could have easily won 11 games.

@gvillegmcck Steroids scandal tore it apart. NOT Woods. Read the wise poster above you. We turned down two bowl appearances due to it. We haven't had a truly bad coach even with Woods or Scott. Scott gave us a bowl victory.

I remember this game when I was a little kid, Rodney Williams played like garbage this game, arguably his worst game during his Clemson career.

@jw4wvu Not the same Brad Edwards.

@jw4wvu Different Brad Edwards . The USC Brad Edwards is the A.D. at Newberry College

Brad Edwards is a fool on ESPN.

Remember that during the Sparky era, he had to clean up the program from drugs, and mainly steroids. I loved coach Morrison. He is still my favorite USC coach. He would have stepped down in 1989 had he not passed away. The pressure was great. In 1989, and 1990 Sparky's first two seasons, the school turned down two straight bowl bids. That really hurt recruiting in my book. That helped seal coach Wood's fate, along with joining the SEC. Woods should have been allowed alot more time to build .

Great player. Great Play. Epic game. Damn, I wish things could have ended up better for Coach Joe Morrison. Maybe not a Bear Bryant or Danny Ford, but he seemed to be just getting our team to the level of a "Perennial National Power" around the time of this game and the following season (1988). I think most agree that Sparky Woods pretty much tore down everything Joe had built up for USC during the 80's. R.I.P. Coach Joe Morrison!
