The GABACast, Episode 137: VOLUNTEERED.
Life is all about seasons...   ...it's becoming pretty clear that this is NOT the season of the Gamecock.   LIsten, Saturday's collapse against the Tennessee Volunteers may have been gut-wrenching. Demoralizing, even. Yes. The Gamecocks allowed the creamsicle mafia to move the ball virtually at will throughout the second half. Yes, the Gamecocks allowed a blocked punt for a scoop and score. Yes, the Gamecocks offense looked like it had the flu for the majority of the game. Yes, the Gamecocks got [feigns Steve Spurrier voice] whalloped on Saturday.  LET'S PODCAST. The Three Amigos are back together once again for the latest installment of the only South Carolina Gamecocks podcast on the internet. And don't worry. We're here to help you with what ails you. Mainly we're here to talk about other stuff that happened last week and to look ahead to the fact that bouncyhoops season is quickly approaching. Also, good football names are just the best. Also, PJ Fleck is a crazy person and we can appreciate that. Also, Texas Tech might've pooped the bed. Also, Notre Dame definitely did. Also, Wofford might be the best football team in South Carolina. Don't judge us. Yeah, we could talk about how Wisconsin is suddenly a smoldering pile of tires. Yeah, we could talk for hours about how BMac should probably start updating his LinkedIn profile. Yeah, we could talk about how Greg Sankey is a total wimp. Instead, we talk about our reasonable expectations for the Gamecocks' Basketball program. Because, we will tirelessly give you exactly what you want: that good good content.   Hope you enjoy the show! Please CLICK HERE to find us on iTunes, or just mash the play button. Whatever. Don't cost nothin'.

The GABACast, Episode 135: ALL DAWGS GO TO HEAVEN.
Unless you 've been recently abducted by aliens you are aware that the South Carolina Gamecocks upended the Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday. In Sanford Stadium. Bushes were pruned. We're awaiting word on whether the invasive species that wraps Dooley Field is expected to survive. That being said, winners and losers this week are pretty focused on the showdown in Athens. From the unidentified player found running around with the Gamecock flag post-game, to a post-mortem analysis of UGA Football's Twitter account (update: they're acting like nothing happened.). We also dive into the x's and o's of the game: including the defense's commendable performance despite being on the field for 95 PLAYS. Also, DID YOU KNOW, that the more Jake Fromm throws the ball, the less likely UGA is to win the game? Well, now you do. And to add fuel to the fire, DC3's chaos theory for a path for the Gamecocks to a NY6 bowl game is still alive. We also know that while last week was fun, this week finds yet another stern test in a (formerly) top ten team, the Florida Gators. The Gamecocks tip off at Noon (again), but this time at WillyB. It's State Fair week, so you know something truly weird and wacky will happen. The guys try to decide what on earth to expect against Dan Mullen's pretty dang productive offense (that sounds weird to say), and do their best to predict what will happen this weekend. There's all that plus uniform predictions, x-factor players of the week, and your favorite new segment, 'One Pressing Question'. 'When was the last time a Gamecock Football game made you truly happy?' Hope you enjoy the show!

The GABACast, episode 134: GOIN' ON DOWN TO JAWJA
Hey there, sports fans!   The South Carolina Gamecocks spent the last 168 hours trying to battle the daunting invisible opponent known as ‘bye week’, and have arrived at the other side (mostly) unscathed. This is a good thing, because the team travels to Athens this weekend to face off against a top-five Georgia Bulldogs squad that looks mighty terrifying. That’s not gonna stop us from making ‘Jake Fromm State Farm’ jokes. Or more ‘Major League’ references. You get what you pay for. Just because because there wasn’t a game played in WillyB last weekend, it doesn’t mean it wasn’t an action-packed weekend FULL of winners and losers: DC3 injured himself in a remarkably dad way. An announcer made the most deadpan hail mary call ever. A D-3 team is beating its opponents so bad they got an invitation to jump straight into FCS. The Gamecocks have exactly one quality soccer program and that’s fine. Apparently SMU is also back. We also (with a fair amount of dread) look ahead to the impending matchup with UGA. Including our keys to the game, the folks we need to have show up in order to have a chance, and our best attempt at final score predictions. There’s also your favorite new segment: ‘One Pressing Question’, in which we pose the age old query: “If you could change one game in Carolina history, which one would it be??” Which, in true GABACast fashion, turns into a conversation about Blake Mitchell and how everything always relates back to Baylor.   We hope you enjoy the show!   Please click here to find us on iTunes,
