Clemson Tigers vs. South Carolina Gamecocks: How To Watch, Live Discussion, Online Streaming
Honestly it feels like it has been awhile since this one was really just for pride. Maybe 2010? After that it was about ending the Gamecocks winning streak. Or winning to ensure the Tigers maintained an undefeated season or playoff hopes. But now we’ve got two teams just playing out the string. The Gamecocks are […]
The Game Preview: Clemson Looks to Finish 25 Strong By Taking Down the Gamecocks in Columbia
Can Clemson Continue its Columbia Dominance? That feeling has returned. What feeling you ask? It is the one where you carry all kinds of nervous trepidation into the game some refer to as The Palmetto Bowl. It might be a little unfamiliar to the younger generation, especially those who cut their teeth during Clemson’s dominant […]
Scouting Report: South Carolina Gamecocks
The Palmetto Bowl brings out a different version of both teams, and Clemson knows better than to judge South Carolina solely by the numbers. The Gamecocks have been erratic all season—dangerous in spurts, frustrating in most others—but rivalry games reward volatility and punish mistakes. With Clemson patching together a makeshift offensive line and South Carolina […]
Clemson Basketball Preview: Alabama A&M
Date: Friday, Nov 28Tip Time: 7:00 PMGame Location: Clemson, SC – Littlejohn ColiseumTV: ACC Network Extra (ESPN3) Gauging Clemson So Far I predicted Clemson to finish 22-8 (12-6) and sneak into the NCAA tournament. That seemed optimistic at the time, given they’d lost all the contributors from last year’s squad but Dillon Hunter. So far, that optimism is […]
ACC Power Rankings Post-Week 13
Pittsburgh earned the biggest win of the weekend, giving them a real chance to win another ACC Championship. SMU dominated and is poised to return to the ACC Championship game if they can win out West. No Bowl for You! 17. Syracuse (3-8 [1-6] Prev 17): Syracuse has not won a game since their early-season […]
Clemson Crowned Charleston Classic Champions as they topple Georgia in OT.
The Clemson Tigers (6-1) defeated the Georgia Bulldogs (6-1) by a final score of 97-94 in thrilling overtime fashion to become champions of the Shriners Children’s Charleston Classic – Palmetto Bracket and capped off a statement weekend for the Brad Brownell led squad.

Clemson vs. Furman: Tigers Manhandle the Paladins 45-10
Clemson returned to Death Valley today, heavily favored to beat the Furman Paladins on Military Appreciation Day (and Senior Day). From all of us at STS, a big thank you to our veterans and active duty service members. We owe our ability to live in freedom and enjoy things like Clemson football to you, and […]
Clemson Tigers vs. Furman Paladins: How To Watch, Live Discussion, Online Streaming
I don’t know what last Friday in Louisville was. I’m not sure anyone can call that football. But hey it worked for Clemson and the Tigers somehow eked out a win. Sometimes special teams and playing disciplined football matters. The good thing I guess is the Tigers weren’t terrible, except for 3rd down on offense. […]
Clemson Basketball Rallies to Take Down West Virginia in Charleston.
Tigers Show Their Grit in a March Type Game If you haven’t been introduced to the 2025-2026 Clemson Men’s Basketball team, tonight was a good time to see what they are about. West Virginia had a large and loud contingent in the building and their athletic squad gave the Tigers fits for long stretches of […]
Clemson Basketball Preview: Charleston Classic
Basketball season is in full swing, and this weekend is a huge opportunity for the Clemson men’s team to pick up quality non-conference wins in the 2025 Shriners Children’s Charleston Classic, held at TD Arena in Charleston. The Tigers are paired with Georgia, West Virginia, and Xavier. Clemson’s opening round matchup with the West Virginia […]
Game 11 Preview: Clemson Celebrates its Seniors and the Military versus Furman
The Tigers will don their purple uniforms against a team routinely in purple, the Furman Paladins, as they look to build momentum. Clemson does a tremendous job with its military appreciation every year, and it is always a cool experience for fans even if the opponent is not the most compelling. It is also senior […]

Louisville Analytics Analysis: Overcoming Adversity At Every Turn
Clemson’s 20–19 win over Louisville becomes much clearer when you break the game down beyond the box score and into the underlying situational metrics. The Tigers were outgained and struggled on third down, but they quietly won critical margins such as points off turnovers, field position, discipline and high-leverage special teams plays. OFFENSE • Total […]
ACC Power Rankings Post-Week 12
Clemson beat a ranked team in the regular season! Virginia dominated Duke and Georgia Tech barely edged Boston College. Teams that are bad 17. Syracuse (3-7 [1-6] Prev 17): Syracuse was off this week. They’ll go to South Bend to face Notre Dame next week and it will probably get ugly. 16. Boston College (1-10 […]

North Alabama Lions (2-2) Conference: Atlantic Sun Coach: Tony Pujol KenPom Ranking: 249 Previous Game: 74-78 loss to Est Tennessee State Game Location: Littlejohn Coliseum Tip Time: 9 PM TV: ACC Network The vast majority of my previews will focus on the opponent, but let’s be real, this game is more about Clemson than the […]
Clemson Basketball Loses Physical Battle at Georgetown
Clemson traveled to Washington DC for their first major test of the young basketball season, and we were treated to a fun, physical basketball game. Georgetown came out swinging, playing extremely aggressive defense and seemingly flustering the Clemson offense. If not for a missed FT and missed open 3-pointer, the Hoyas could have built a […]
Clemson Basketball Preview: Georgetown
Three warmup games, three blowout victories. It’s been a thrilling start to the season for this new Clemson squad which has topped 80 points in each of its first three games. The offense has been humming, flexing a seemingly deep roster with five different players averaging at least 10 PPG so far. Ace Buckner has […]
Clemson vs. Louisville: Tigers Squeak by the Cardinals 20-19
Clemson traveled north to take on Louisville as a slight underdog. The first half was a back and forth affair with both teams making costly mistakes. The score was 10-9 Clemson at the half. Cade Klubnik was playing pretty well but some of his receivers were dropping passes that they should have been able to […]
Clemson Tigers vs. Louisville Cardinals: How To Watch, Live Gamethread, Online Streaming
I’m not sure that anyone had this game as the toughest on Clemson’s schedule back in August. Most would have picked LSU for that one. But here we are in November and #20 Louisville has one of the better chances of making the Playoff in the ACC, even with their loss to Cal last weekend. […]
Game 10 Preview: Clemson Travels to Take on Louisville
A Chance for a Shred of Redemption for the 2025 Team! Super happy to be back writing a preview coming off a win for a change. It wasn’t pretty in stretches and the Tigers definitely dodged more than one bullet on mistakes, but all the credit to a squad continuing to battle and finding a […]
Scouting Report: Louisville Cardinals
OFFENSE Summary: Louisville’s offense ranks 6th in scoring and 9th in total yardage, built on efficiency and balance. Isaac Brown (8.6 YPC) provides explosive runs, while QB production is solid but turnover-prone. Chris Bell accounts for over one-third of Louisville’s air attack, making him the focal point of their passing game. → Clemson Strategy (Defending […]
Clemson Basketball: Tigers Stand on Business – Clemson 83 – Morehead State 56

Game 3 for Brad Brownell’s Exciting New Squad When: Tuesday, Nov 11 – 7:00pmWhere: Littlejohn ColiseumTV: ACCNX It will be a bit before we truly know what this 2025-2026 Clemson men’s basketball squad can accomplish, but for a team with an almost entirely new roster, the engine has been humming relatively well to this point.
