Went by there yesterday but was driving and could not take a good look, do you know how many were planted? I always thought shrubs should be planted and line the fence on Bertrand.

"Where would be a good spot for us visiting Tech fans to tailgate?"

Please come by the Oak tree across from Luther's on Bertrand and say hello to the Folks there at some point. Many of the people on this board tailgate there and we usually have a pretty good supply of food and drinks.

That is the point of my posts. I want what's best for the cajuns. I will point out their weeknesses and point out the positives. As far as the roll out passing, the reason for roll outs are to run away from an aggressive def. We did a good job with roll outs. That is the easiest block in football. The easiest. All you have to do is step to the play side, open your hips and get your ___ facing the play. Its called a fan block. Once again, the O-line is the achilles heel of the team.

"I hope our fans treated you well if you were there in person."

I attended the game and your fans were fantastic. I have never been treated nicer in an opponents venue. They were very kind to us before the game and afterwards quite a few complimented us on the performance of our team. It was one of the best road trips that I have made. One thing that really surprised me was how knowledgeable your fans were about our Coach and team. Good luck for the rest of the season and I hope the Cocks go undefeated.

Geaux Cajuns, Geaux Gamecocks!

Another Coach's opinion:

"They (the Cajuns) controlled the line of scrimmage on both side of the ball all night."

I was in D.C. for the game. The ESPN Zone there happened to be carrying the game, so me and my dad were able to catch it there. I was very impressed with the way this team played. The two Gamecock fans there were very impressed with our team. They were very nervous heading into the 4th quarter as Travis seemed to be running better. It was a great game and I hope we beat those Dawgs this Saturday.

How could you control the Off. side of the ball when your offense didn't even score. How can you say the defense controlled the ball when we allowed 14 pts. If Lou Holtz said this, he knows that a SEC team like the Gamecocks are terrible. Lets be realistic, anyone can see the USC will maybe win 5 games. This is the 2nd to worst team in the SEC.

I'm starting to question Lou Holtz's credibility.

Even I know he is speaking about what he expected vs what he saw. He obviously expected to totally dominate every facit of the game, and compared to what he expected the Cajuns dominated.

What do the stats stand for? Is it solo and assisted tackles? Do they keep stats on missed tackles?
