Now I wouldn't call the Gamecocks a premier team, but even they are undefeated against the Buckeyes in bowl games, beating them in back to back Outback Bowls in 2001 and 2002. The best part about it is that in 2001, when Carolina's 1,000 yard rusher, Derek Watson, was out due to injury.....in comes Ryan Brewer, a former Mr. Football in the State of Ohio who was spurned by Ohio State. He collects 109 yards rushing, 92 yards receiving, and scores 3 TDs. That, my friends, is called payback!!

I remember that. I live in Covington, Ohio; and that is 10 min. away from Troy, Ohio where Ryan Brewer was from and that was a big deal around here. He tore it up in that game, and that one game is the game that caused John Cooper to lose his job... err wait; it was actually Brewer himself that caused the firing of Cooper. Love it...

Yes it's true that the Buckeyes lost in the NC game the last two years and that's a mjor disappointment. However really that has nothing to do with this season. If OSU can beat USC and remain unbeaten in the Big-10 they will be back and maybe will win this time!
It's very doubtful LSU will return and unlikely Florida will return to the NC game this season. The Gamecocks - hey great victories in the Outback Bowl. Have they ever played an NC game?

I would rather not go to a NC game in my college career rather than go to one and lose big time, not to mention two years in a row? I will keep my dignity sorry, It is just because of the weak conference schedule. Even the non-conference games are below par next to USC and Texas. Imagine if they would have played either of them in week 8 rather than week 2 or 3. It wouldn't be pretty on OSU's part because that is when USC hit there stride last year about that time. I think you will take them in week 3, but If you do lose that game and go undefeated the rest of the year and there is another team with a one lose season assuming that one goes undefeated; OSU would be out sorry.

its pretty sad
south carolina fans act like beating 8 and 7 win Ohio State teams QBed by one of the worst QBs in Ohio State history (Steve Bellisari was a saftey playing QB) are their greatest wins ever

I am not a Gamecocks fan in the slightest regards. I just don't like Ohio State. Besides whether you like it or not Ryan Brewer was the "only" reason that John Cooper was fired. Alright maybe not the only reason, but definitely the deciding factor. I just love how somebody who I grew up watching in high school taring apart his favorite school growing up because they thought he was too small to come and play for them. Like I said... Love it.

Ryan Brewer was good but not that good.
Go 2-10-1 against rival Meatchicken probably had more to do with OSU firing CFB Hall Of Fame Coach John Cooper...but then again I'm no expert.
But if that is the take by the majority ; That it was all Ryan Brewer then good on him cause we got Tress now and at least he has gotten us to some national Championship games that coop never did as well as thump Missagain. I'm thinking is it 4 in a row and going on 5?

I never said OSU was scrubs, I was just stating that your conference is full of a bunch of scrubs. OSU usually puts out good NFL caliber players that tend to have success. I think the only reason that you beat Michigan every year was due to the coach. Now that he is gone you better keep a better eye on them. I am not of big fan of Rich Rodriguez because he is a system coach just like Urban Meyer, but just the change period will cause some better things going on up there compared to what they have been like.

Funny how that works! Same could be said for UM dominating OSU in the 90's.

Fortunately for OSU, this will take 2-3 years for the UM program to catch up. But fortunately for the Wolverines, they should continue their winning streak vs ND. UM will have a very shaky, rebuilt, transitioning offense this year, but will have a good defense. ND will be shaky on both sides of the ball.

What winning streak? What 2 games. They only beat us last year because our team was in dismal, but it will be different now that all of Tyrone Willingham's players are gone. We will surprise a lot of people this year just wait.

ND's record against UM for the last 10 games played - 3 wins 7 loses. You are right about one thing - You won't have Ty to blame it on anymore!

When was the last time the Gamecocks win their conference?

irish eyes give me a break. Wisconsin, Michigan, and Penn State (with the latter two possible NC contenders) were highly ranked teams last year in the preseason. Granted the non-conference schedule was very weak Ohio State was not planning on being in the national championship game. They were number 7 with two weeks to go.
You might be happy beating up on lesser teams just to look good rather than be embarrassed but OSU did not win their way to the national championship game...all the teams in front of them blew it.
Also being named Mr. Football in Ohio is a joke lately. Raymond Williams (prison fodder but recruited by rodriguez at WV lol), Tanski (who wasnt even recruited by 1 division A school), maurice clarett........yeah its a title held by very few good players in college and almost nil in translation to the NFL (woodson/smith).
btw South Carolina right now is on a losing streak including losses to Vanderbilt and clemson (who actually made a bowl game HAHA). I'm sure there chances to beat Ohio State are nil.

Is the reason you don't like Ohio State because of the ass beatings that they handed to your "Beloved" Irish?? I can't wait to watch another 3-9 Irish season!! You might get by the Service Academies!

osubuckeye89 is almost right on the money when he posts "south carolina fans act like beating 8 and 7 win Ohio State teams QBed by one of the owrkst QBs in Ohio State history are their greatest wins ever"
SC fans not only "ACT" like these are their greatest wins ever, .in fact they ARE two of the greatest wins ever in the dismal history of the shamecocks. They still love to brag about beating Ohio State every chance that they get. Such is life as a SEC doormat.
