Are we losing this SC home game?

When play resumes with SC do you think we'll play in the upstate?

Florida State is away this year. They don't want them the same.

If we try and change next year's game to a home game, that will mess up the flow of schedule that we have with our other OOC P5 game. The idea has always been that we play a major OOC team at home the year we play at UofSC. We don't want to have a situation where we have 6 home games and then 8 home games the following year. The current setup is 7 home games each year. I know 2021 will be odd with the neutral site game against UGA, but otherwise, that setup holds.
We just need to be thankful that we have some games this year. We could be like Ohio State and have nothing to look forward to sports wise.

I would not let it go! CUhad nothing to do with the cancellation of this game. If the Chickens do not want to acquiesce to what is right, then DRad should cancel next years game. “Giving In” never works!

Re: I like the concept, but would rather keep the $ in SC

If Bristol Motor Speedway can host a football game in its infield, maybe Darlington can too? That would keep $$$ in SC, neutral site, and it's less than an hour from my house. ">

Bristol is a shorter track though. Darlington is nearly a mile longer than Bristol so it would most likely be harder to make it work with seating and such.

In terms of the whole neutral site thing. This could be done while still playing the game in Columbia. They could just divide up ticket allotment the same as they would for a neutral game and share the revenue. I'm sure this won't be done, but if they were going to entertain the neutral site thing that would be one way to do it.

It's a lose-lose situation

We either lose a home game with SC or we screw up our schedule pretty badly for the next ~15 years.
I think a neutral site game would stink too, but it might be the best of a bunch of bad solutions.

uof6c will NEVER AGREE to play at Clemson in 2021

They are under the delusion that playing in the dead Cockroach gives them some kind of advantage.
In reality, Clemson has better winning percentage playing there that the home team has.
Barring something totally unforeseen, it may realistically be another ten years before the Capons are in any kind of position to beat Clemson no matter where the games are played. Maybe longer.
While their recruiting has improved slightly, the gap is not narrowing. If anything, it getting wider.

Back to Back. Same with Louisville and NCState next year when ACC returns to division play next year since we don't play them this year. Stupid ACC should have maintained division play this year as much as possible. Swoffie pee'd in the wind to please Notre Dame.

conferences aren't going to screw up their rotations and juggle schedules just to get our home game back

Why can't SC just give the SEC a middle finger and say, "screw you we're playing an 11th game against a non-conference opponent." Would they be put on probation or something if they did?

The 2021 should be cancelled and the series should be restarted in Clemson in 2022. That would preserve the current rotation of the series and each school would miss hosting one game. Clemson could schedule another Power 5 team to start a two game series.
