Is Spurrier giving up before USC takes the field? And more links. . .



The most interesting Tide news this week is coming from Steve Spurrier's press conference. Some say that Spurrier is giving up before taking the field and others say that he is trying to lure the Tide into a rope-a-dope.

Here is a quote from ESPN:

“Obviously, we want to go in and give it our best shot and see what happens,” Spurrier said. “There’s not a lot of pressure on us. We’re not sitting around here and telling our guys this, that and the other. There was more pressure on that Kentucky game (last week), I can assure you of that, and the game next week when we play Vanderbilt, because we line up with those guys better. We all know that.”
