It’s not often a team is ranked for about three hours, but every time the Gamecocks find themselves ranked over the last several seasons, they stay ranked just about the same amount of time they keep a name. In other words, not long.
The Gamecocks had a chance to jump up in the rankings with a very average Missouri team coming to town, but the Columbia Tigers ran up and around and over the home team. How bad did it look? Have you ever gone out to watch little kids play coaches pitch or T-ball, and there are always three or four that are out there picking their noses, sitting down in the dirt, chasing butterflies, or generally just wandering around with absolutely no clue there is a game going on?
