After a 45-42 overtime home loss to Tennessee, head coach Steve Spurrier declined to take any questions from media members who assembled for his postgame press conference. He gave a brief prepared remark -- reading from a sheet, as he often does -- about most of his players playing well and about how losses are unenjoyable. Then he left.
Steve Spurrier gives 56-second presser after Tennessee loss, takes no questions
“I don’t need to take any questions. You guys watched it.”
Odd moment, especially considering he’s generally one of the most talkative and media-friendly coaches in football. He’s had his share of prickly moments, though, and this will probably be one he apologizes for.
This was South Carolina’s fourth loss in five games. The Gamecocks led, 42-28, with just under five minutes to go.
