Locked On Gamecocks - Daily Podcast On South Carolina Gamecocks Football & Basketball Locked On Podcast Network

There aren't a lot of games on the South Carolina schedule that many have circled as a potential upset in favor of the Gamecocks. We discuss why Missouri could be THAT team/game for South Carolina to pull an upset this season. Between Mizzou's record on the road under Eli Drinkwitz and Luther Burden's massive drop off in the 2nd half of last season, there are a lot of reasons why USC can pull off the upset.

After discussing the potential upset for segment 1 & 2 we close the show discussing UGA's latest off-field embarrassment and whether or not Kirby and the Dawgs have a culture problem in Athens.

On today's show we start with Lane Kiffin and former USC WR Juice Wells trolling South Carolina Wednesday on Social Media. What was the point and why it could come back to haunt Kiffin considering his track record in road games as a head coach.

In segment 2, we break down the post from freshman Edge Rusher Dylan Stewart that came out after summer workouts heading into Fall Camp. The freshman looks SEC ready from a physical standpoint but what should be the expectations for him from a production standpoint.

Finally in the last segment we discuss the current and former Gamecocks headed to Paris for the 2024 Olympic Games.

ALSO - HAPPY TO SAY ALMOST ZERO INTERNET ISSUES WITH THIS EPISODE. BOUT. DANG. TIME.

The 3 biggest threats to South Carolina in the month of September and is one of them currently on the Gamecocks staff? Chris Marler deep dives through the September slate and tells you the 3 biggest players/coaches that are a threat to the early success of the 2024 season. Can Carolina's O-Line stop Deone Walker in Lexington, can the secondary slow down LSU QB Garrett Nussmeier in Week 3, and can Clayton White's defense be a strength and not a liability.

Also we review what CFB analyst Greg McElroy said about South Carolina being much better than people anticipate and why (like we said on this show) fans and media are incorrectly sleeping on the Gamecocks this season.

Lastly we close the show with some audience Q&A about which game I would most want to go to this season if you could only choose one from the 2024 schedule.

Day 4 of 2024 SEC Media Days is in the books and we ask a simple question...is the SEC and national media sleeping on South Carolina this season? Short answer: Yes.

We also discuss some of the things that were said that stood out most from SEC Media Days Day 4 including what Hugh Freeze said about the current CFB calendar in the sport.

Lastly we discuss why South Carolina is one of the 5 SEC schools Chris Marler thinks the media isn't talking enough about this offseason.

We recap Days 2 and 3 of SEC Media Days in Dallas and answer the question is Williams-Brice Stadium basically Jordan-Hare 2.0 for SEC opponents? We discuss more from Shane Beamer and company's remarks from Monday as well as things said about the program and what to expect from the Gamecocks this upcoming season from Day 2 and 3 in Dallas. PLUS we have 2 great interviews in segment 2 and 3 from Chris Gordy from LockedOn SEC who sat down with current Gamecock players Alex Huntley and Luke Doty.

HUGE episode recapping Day 1 at SEC Media Days in Dallas. We discuss what Shane Beamer said at and away from the podium as well as the reaction from the media to him and this year's South Carolina team. What players were highlighted, what position units were discussed, and what did Shane Beamer AND Nick Saban BOTH say about how far South Carolina is from where it wants to be. The answer was surprising to say the least.
