Misery Index · Despair · ▲ from 71
Another September collapse in Columbia, where the only job security belongs to the people responsible.
What happened
South Carolina lost 34-41 to Mississippi State at home, and the fanbase did not take it as a one-off. The turning point was the defense's inability to get off the field late, which turned a winnable night into another entry in a long ledger. At 2-1, the season is technically fine. Nobody in the stands believes that. One fan summed up the mood: "We suck, I'm miserable, and no one is getting fired." Another called it "the SAME SHIT EVERY FUCKING YEAR." Misery climbed from 67 to 83, which feels about right for a program where hope is just the setup to the punchline.
