Gamecock football turnaround

Today in Gamecock  country, history was made. We played number 1 ranked Alabama. They had an undefeated season until today. They were number 1. This was the first time in Gamecock football history that we have defeated a number 1 ranked team. The final score was 35 – 21. This is good, but what makes it great is that last week Alabama beat Florida 31 – 6. Today, L S U beat Florida 33 – 29. The reason this is great is because Florida has been a thorn to us since 2006.   This is saying that if we can beat the number 1 seat team who beat out thorn and that our thorn lost their second consecutive game, things are looking pretty good for us for when we meet the Gators. We still need to focus on each game as they happen and not look ahead in fear of the rug being pulled from under us, but the bulk of our toughest teams are now behind us. We shall wait and see, but there is always hope.
