SEC Football: Head Coach Evaluations, South Carolina Gamecocks’ Steve Spurrier
Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports
A Few Thoughts on Spurrier
Spurrier is a legend. His accomplishments stand against any coach’s. He may very well have earned the right to coach through his contract, which expires in 2018. However, this legend qualifies as a senior citizen in America. Another 6-6 season may very well mean he stayed two seasons too long.
Spurrier’s biggest wins at South Carolina (unranked):
#19 South Carolina 35, #1 Alabama 21 (2010- Alabama was the defending National Champion)
#22 South Carolina 36, #24 Florida 14 (2010- First win in The Swamp, secured first SEC East Championship)
#8 South Carolina 33, #24 Michigan 28 (2013 Outback Bowl)
#10 South Carolina 31, #6 Clemson 17 (2013-#5 in 5 in a row)
