The Chicken Curse

As South Carolina began eyeing a national championship and hoping to move into the top 5 in the BCS, the curse prevailed and a miserable O-line performance resulted in -60 yards rushing. The dual quarterbacks never seemed to find any rythmn on Saturday. They spent most of the afternoon pulling grass from their helmets after being swarmed by the Commadore defense. Even the Carolina optimists now question the teams abilities to move the ball. Were we really eyeing a national champoinship? No. We are a bit more realistic than that. The frustration comes from the inability of Carolina to blow out opponents. The sub-standard level of play to lesser opponents has been the weakness for quite some time. With the "Orange Crush" of our season approaching(Tenn, Ark, Flor, and Clemson) we hope to pull out three of four and challenge for the SEC East.
