Is South Carolina about to go back to the pre-Spurrier days?

They were a decent team in 2014, but they struggled against almost every quality opponent they played. Spurrier certainly isn’t getting any younger. So yeah, I think we might have seen the last great years at South Carolina.

The real question is does the decline start this year or next, if it didn’t already start last year.
