Highs in football don’t last long for Gamecock fans.
We were waiting for that inevitable loss, the unavoidable step back after receiving an ounce of respect from public perception, and just that happened against the Missouri Tigers at home last weekend.
Following a stretch of four straight victories (two against SEC opponents), South Carolina dropped a tough one to Missouri by the score of 23-10.
While the defense and special teams (not to mention unforced errors by opponents) were able to bail out the Cocks in recent weeks, they did not get so lucky this time.
