Since Steve Spurrier ended up in Columbia, South Carolina beating Florida has sounded a death knell for Florida’s coaches.
In 2010, Marcus Lattimore and the Gamecocks ran all over Urban Meyer’s Gators, confirming their season wasn’t just going to be about a three-game losing streak in October. Meyer would announce his departure — for a second time — less than a month later.
In 2014, Will Muschamp’s Gators lost for a third time in four tries to Spurrier’s Gamecocks, a blocked punt helping to seal their fate — and Muschamp’s, as he was fired the next day.
