| FTBL An Alabama reporter asked Will Muschamp: “Has South Carolina kinda became like the little brother of Clemson?”

I've probably said this here before but even before Clemson started winning championship lately I usually start a conversation with a CU fan with "Why we added South Carolina and not y'all in 92 is beyond me." Their fans usually loved this comment. Back then during the first expansion Clemson was recovering from sanctions, the ACC throw them under the bus much like the SEC did with us, Clemson was pissed with the ACC (much like we were with the SEC and would have left the ACC in a heartbeat. Like 50+ said South Carolina's football tradition is crap and always has been.
 
Sorry, missed that one. You know, Florida had never had a ten win season before Spurrier, either. Not even Spurrier could be the first 10-win coach at Duke, though. That would be Cutcliffe.
They only have one banner in WBS and that's the ACC title. I didn't even know they had that until the '05 game.

Nice tidbit about 10 wins and Duke. Didn't realize that. 👏
 
With the possibility of playing 10 games, I believe you're right....mind is thinking here....Thomas Drew, maybe? I don't think I have the name right.

Red Drew got his 10-win season in 1952 (I had to look that one up here Alabama Crimson Tide Football Record By Year | College Football at Sports-Reference.com ).

Well, I had to go check. aubrun has 14 10-win seasons. Just one repeat (Dye 88-89). None before 1957. None in the sixties. Dye (4) and Shug (3) have half of them. No one else has more than two. I don't think Malzahn ever gets his third.

An amazing stat in itself that has historically great written all over it. Now in a 13 game season, counting bowls, and there are teams out there without even one 10 win season.
