Hell has frozen over....Gamecocks win


Talk about a strange night as the snow comes down in the Upstate (hoping for no work on Thursday) and to accumulate to the already oddness of this January night the Gamecocks went down to Fayetteville, AR in the Bud Walton Arena and won!
I know it is hard to believe for us too and I am not talking about the snow we have but that the Gamecocks actually beat a 13-3 team...I mean 13-4 team now...haha. Because going into the game all we thought about was how Arkansas has one of the biggest and most experienced front lines in the Southeastern Conference. Take that with our weak interior offense/defense and you see why we were a little scared. Heck, their starting frontline features three seniors: 7-0, 245-pound Steven Hill, 6-8, 231-pound Charles Thomas and 6-6, 203-pound senior forward Sonny Weems. But the Gamecocks won by the score of 70 to 66 (for once we win a close game rather than choke like Jad Dean) . Our losing streak has ended but still think the coaching chair is still very hot for Odom. More HERE on the game!
For tonight though - way to go Gamecocks!

Holly crap, I can't believe it snowed and the gamecocks beat a decent Hog team. Does this change anything, should we now keep Odom for another year?

Can the G-cocks take down Florida now?
