For four straight years, the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Clemson Tigers have faced off in the College Football Playoff. Three of them, including tonight, for the National Championship. Typically, this would be an annoyance to most sports fans...but this one feels different. It's the Ali vs Frazier...

(Late post) Ditti breaks down the CFB Matchups and more!

Well...that was ugly... Our Gamecocks completely laid an egg in the Belk Bowl and were shut out by the Virginia Cavaliers. It happened, it's over and I promise you that Deebo Samuel wouldn't have made all that much of a difference outside it not being a shutout maybe. Of course, there is a lot to...

Things I've heard in the last week as Clemson makes their fourth consecutive appearance in the College Football Playoff.... "Clemson wouldn't win nine games in a real conference like the SEC"; "Notre Dame is too big for a conference and therefor too big for Clemson"; "if they played a real schedule...

The Braves weren't quite as ready as I had thought, the Dodgers were FAR more ready than I anticipated and the Astros reminded us all...

The glorious month of October is upon us and as a sports fan, there really isn't a dull moment. NFL and College Football seasons are in full swing, the NBA and NHL have returned and...most importantly, playoff baseball. As a baseball-first guy, I'm obviously most interested in the MLB Postseason,...

The 2018 South Carolina Gamecocks' season began with a cakewalk. The Coastal Carolina Chanticleers came to Williams Brice Stadium last Saturday as something of a tune-up for the Gamecocks before their big match-up with division rival and third-ranked Georgia this week. Of course, when a team blows...

The first round of postseason hockey has come and gone and for the most part, the results were what most people were expecting. However, there were some standout performances and it changed most people’s opinions on who might be the favorites to win the cup. So, with the second round getting...
