UPDATE – Poll Results HERE Here is the SEC Hoops Power Poll Ballot from LOHD — 1. Kentucky Wildcats I am still in disbelief that 24,000 showed up for ESPN Game Day. 2. Vanderbilt Commodores Vandy is praying for a UK loss as they are within striking distance. 3. Tennessee Volunteers The Vols lost to the […]

Best phrase to describe this is “lost opportunity.” The Gamecocks got out to a ten point lead and then for some reason seemed to ease up a bit. The ‘dawgs fought back and showed their bite down the stretch. Carolina just could not muster up enough to fend off the attack and ended up losing […]

The Gamecocks head to Athens, Georgia tomorrow to face an improving Bulldogs basketball team. Coach Fox will have Dawg’s ready, after their last meeting in Columbia back on January 30th. Many have questioned Fox’s coaching in that game, as the Gamecocks pulled out the one point win, after Fox elected to pull all of his […]

By beating Florida on Wednesday, the Gamecocks have put themselves back in position to make a run at the NCAA tournament. For more on the game itself, see Flounder’s post here. Going into the game, no bracketologist had USC dancing. Had they lost last night, they would have been all but eliminated. Now they are […]

Well well… if I must say I think that was one of the better team outings the Gamecocks have had in a long time. Yes they have played good here and there but this seemed to be a little better of a team win than in the past. Oh and for the record, we predicted […]

A series that seems to come down to the last second or at least that is the way it has been 3 out of the last 4 meetings. Carolina is coming off its worst SEC lost of the season, while Florida has been “red hot” winning 6 of its last 7. Florida is 6-3 in […]

The Gamecocks entered Knoxville riding a high but that was quickly deflated due to better team play out of the Vols. Wayne Chism scored a career-high 30 points as No. 14 Tennessee routed South Carolina 79-53 on Saturday night. The Vols (18-4, 6-2 Southeastern Conference) won their sixth straight over the Gamecocks (13-9, 4-4). UT […]

Tonight Devon Downey and the Gamecocks take on UT in Thompson-Boling Arena at 6pm on ESPN. Can USC conquer “Rocky Top?” USC should be well rested after having the week off from SEC play, compared to Tennessee having to play 2 games in 3 days. Despite losing a couple players earlier in the season due […]

How big were last week’s wins against Kentucky and Georgia? Or rather how big was the win against Kentucky and not blowing the momentum against Georgia? Well, some prognosticators now think the Gamecocks are going to the Big Dance. Warren Nolan is the most optimistic about USC’s post season destination: he has the Gamecocks playing […]

In a game with numerous back and forths, the Gamecocks were able to muster enough up at the end to fend off the Bulldogs and avoid their bite. Georgia played tough as usual but the Gamecocks surged late in the game again thanks to their star guard Devan Downey, who carried his team to another victory. Downey […]

The pesky bulldogs come to Columbia tonight to take on “America’s Sweetheart” for the moment the University of South Carolina. The Gamecocks are still enjoying the spotlight of knocking off the Kentucky Wildcats earlier this week but they can not relish in ‘what was’ as they must continue to take care of business on the […]

In one of the biggest games to ever be played at Colonial Life Arena, the atmosphere was awesome. I don’t think I sat down the entire 2nd half. The Garnet Army was on their game, from chanting SAT when John Wall was on the free throw line to rushing the court after the final seconds […]
