Steve Spurrier loves to zing other football programs when he has an opportunity to do so. Remember the one about Tennessee ( you can't spell Citrus without UT) and Florida State (FSU=Free Shoes University).
This time Spurrier took a shot at his old school Florida. The former Heisman Trophy winner and national championship winning coaching legend had a one liner directed at the Gators.
"Somebody told me the Gators are going to be home for the holidays," zinged Spurrier. "Maybe we can get a bunch of Gators who'll come to our ballgame, fill up the stands … and root for the Gamecocks."
Spurrier also took the time to sneak in a jab at Florida State (again), when the questioned about Jadeveon Clowney's speeding ticket.
“I didn't know Jadeveon's car that could go that fast. He doesn't have a pretty car like those FSU guys used to drive.”
Spurrier turned the Capital One Bowl press conference into his own little laugh fest.
Even though Spurrier has aged and mellowed, he still hasn't lost his touch for a good one liner.

South Carolina's New Duds
It looks like UnderArmour is trying to catch Nike in the unique uniform design department.
South Carolina will be sporting new Wounded Warrior Project uniforms for their game against Auburn on October 1.
In an effort to recognize the sacrifices made by members of our Armed Forces as well as to commemorate the tenth anniversary of September 11, this year’s uniforms will embrace the American spirit by incorporating a custom “USA stars and stripes” head-to-toe design. To further support all veterans, each team will replace their last names on their jerseys with a core value embellishment – Duty, Honor, Courage, Commitment, Integrity, Country, or Service – and will be led on field by selected wounded warrior honorary captains.
“As we continue to reflect on the tenth anniversary of September 11, we recognize the importance of honoring those that lost their lives on that day and the men and women of our Armed Forces that continue to fight for freedom,” said Matt Mirchin, Under Armour Senior Vice President, Sports Marketing. “We are privileged to work with Wounded Warrior Project, South Carolina, Texas Tech, and the University of South Florida to carry on the tradition of these special games and support the Believe in Heroes campaign.”
First there were the crazy Maryland uniforms and now these. Actually they don't look that bad. I like them more than their regular uniforms.
