Outback Bowl 2009

South Carolina looked terrible. Iowa looked every bit like a team that showed up to play. But still, we have to hand it to intrepid Sports Fool Chris Rodgers, who went to the fiasco down in Tampa and sent along these great photos of the game.

Fans milling about behind the pirate ship. Is this a football stadium or Disneyland?

The Mighty Sound of the Southeast, the Gamecock Marching Band! Well I'm sure they at least did a fine job.

Looks like someone setting up to throw a pick.

No idea what just happened that would excite these Carolina fans. Must be pregame introductions.
