GABACast

Listen, it's Friday the 13th. We know. The podcast has reverted to it's idiosyncratic ways. 

 

On a podcast recorded nearly a week ago, Sam and DC3 opine on basically anything but the travesty that was the Gamecocks' offensive performance Saturday night against the Texas A&M Aggies. 

Apart from the abysmal showing for the Garnet and Black (or white), the week was actually pretty interesting. From Virginia Tech an...

We finally got a stress free week of college football. Honestly here at The GABACast the bye week has become our favorite week because there's no stressing out about the Gamecocks. Let's dive in:

Winners and Losers

Does the PAC-12 actually know what they're doing?

Please stop overturning ridiculously fun plays in college football.

Well, in the same way that the win over Auburn was exhilarating, that game was a complete disappointment. But the Gamecocks are 2-3 going into the bye week and, if we're being honest with ourselves, that's right about what everyone expected out of this team record wise. Anyways, we had a GABACast record for Twitter questions this week so it's an action packed episode this week.

DC3's food opinions.

Winners and loser...

That was a hell of a win for the Gamecocks. We've seen the team fail to build on any kind of momentum all too many times but, after a slow start, really finished the game strong and got a solid win over Auburn for the first time since 1933. This week's episode is action packed as we discuss all things South Carolina and all things college football:

DC3's crazy food opinions (new feature!!!)

Looks like the Gamecocks won't be going ofer this year. That was a result this team desperately needed. Actually, I think the fanbase as a whole needed a game like that, particularly the second half. Once again, Bobo was very good in calling plays, the defense showed some improvement with different personnel in the secondary. Among this, we talk about lots of other stuff. Winners and losers Missouri's bandTop 25 weirdnessTe...

This season has started off about as bad as that Brad Scott Heinz Ketchup commercial...well, maybe not THAT bad. But it certainly has room for improvement. Missed opportunities have really set this team back and Will Muschamp's hot seat is about as on fire as this episode, so let's dive right into this week's content. Winners and losers, including: LSU and Ed Orgeron opening up in-game alcohol sales.Iowa State and the w...

Well, I don't know how else to say this...but that absolutely sucked. I mean, could there have a more South Carolina Gamecock way to lose a football game? Probably not. There's a lot to dive into this week. This episode we have: Joe Montana's still got it...especially when it comes to home invasions.ThE AiR RaId WoN't WoRk In ThE SeC.SEC refs are the worst people at their job that somehow manage to remain gainfully ...

Look, we know it's been a while. We're sorry about that. But hey, we're back and better than ever. Well, maybe not better than ever but we're definitely back.  Is the GABACast disappearing the reason 2020 went to hell? There's not scientific evidence saying otherwise...Winners and losers, including Tampa Bay and their geriatric rosterThe Pac12 being terrible at lifeSeason preview Thoughts on the QB battleBreakin...

A podcast recorded almost a week ago posted at a random time on a Sunday? Yep. That's us. The only South Carolina Gamecocks sports podcast that exists on the internet.    In today's episode, we try to put a bow on the football season, look ahead to basketball and other sports that may give us joy in the coming months, and wax poetic about the future. We're also fortunate enough to have been able to spend a little ti...

In one of our darkest hours, our longtime friend of the podcast joins us to talk Gamecock Football.    Many thanks to Connor Shaw for taking some time out of his day to wax poetic on the state of the South Carolina Gamecocks football program, Will Muschamp's future, Ryan Hilinski's status, locker room talk, and much much more! Spoiler alert, this is an unedited, on-the-fly, interview so management apologizes in advance fo...

Y'all are probably wondering, 'wow, it's Friday, what the heck is the podcast doing showing up on a Friday?!' You're Welcome is what.  We talk about DACOACHO and how he might be a watchword for Will Muschamp. We make fun of future offensive coordinator for the Gamecocks, Chad Morris. We talk about Illinois and their terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day that still somehow turned into a win. We also talk ab...

Hey there, South Carolina Gamecocks sports fans! Sports are good and entertaining sometimes. Saturday was not one of those times. Despite a fairly simple victory against a lackadasical Vanderbilt Commodores team, the boys in Garnet were less than promising under the lights in Nashville. What a better way to celebrate a [meh] WIN against a conference opponent than to do what we do best: talk a bunch about other stuff. Like how rid...

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 lo...

We're not going to beat a dead horse. Things were looking good last weekend against the Florida Gators, until things got sloppier than the weather in Williams-Brice. Instead of a second consecutive victory over a top ten opponent, the good guys came away with a rather disappointing loss.  That being said, we soldiered on. Nobody had a voice for a few days, so this week you get a #FRIDAY episode of the only South Carolina Gamec...

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 t...

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 mo...

Howdy folks! After some technical difficulties last week, which were pretty on-brand considering the offensive failure to launch against the Missouri Tigers, the only South Carolina Gamecocks podcast in existence returns to bring you the quality content you love and deserve. And so on. So...what do we make of Saturday’s convincing victory against a paltry Kentucky Wildcats team? Can we all just decide that chrome helmets are not ...

The outcome Saturday was not optimal. Would the outcome have been any different if the South Carolina Gamecocks were allowed to have the two touchdowns that the referees took away? It's difficult to say, but it would've been alot more fun. Oh well. I hope the SEC officials enjoy their fruit and nut assortments they'll get for Christmas.  Moving along, this week we break down the highlights and the lowlights from the ga...

After a disappointing loss to North Carolina, the Gamecocks bounced back in a big way with a blowout victory over Charleston Southern. In this week's episode we discuss: Why Tennessee sucksIs Jimbo Fisher the most overpaid person in the history of humanity?The beginning of the Hilinski era and how confident we should be in Ryan Hilinski going forward.Will the offensive playcalling carry over to the Alabama game?Will we actually...
