Every time Jay Guillermo sees South Carolina’s block C logo with the Gamecock in the middle, it leaves a bad taste in his mouth.
“It has been ingrained in your mind that you don’t like that,” Clemson’s starting center said on Monday. “I have some people in my family that are Gamecock fans, and it is something that you look at, ‘Man! I don’t like that.’
“It’s like … I really cannot describe it. It’s like man, and I know it just doesn’t go back to the logo, but I just cannot stand that logo.”
But it is South Carolina’s logo, or at least that hate for it in Guillermo’s case, that makes the Clemson-South Carolina game one of the more intense rivalries in college football.
