Boos reign down upon The Gamecocks after a 3 and out with a loss of yardage.

The Gamecocks defense looks awful.

Not completely Clayton White’s fault, he doesn’t have the players to compete against OU.

Gamecocks looked awful. If this keeps up this game will be over in the first half.

Gameday has jumped the shark and Pat McAfee is an oaf. I swear Saban wants to punch him in the throat sometimes.

It's on video. The ISP moved in and brutalized peaceful protesters.

What are you going to do about that @govpritzker.illinois.gov ?

I'll leave the sun behind me
And watch the clouds as they sadly pass me by
Seven miles below me
I can see the world and it ain't so big at all
Yeah

That Mark Twain was in a feud with Arthur Conan Doyle because Twain accused Doyle of being a lazy writer and ripping off Edgar Allen Poe for his Sherlock Holmes stories is really everything.

A feud between two of the greatest writers of the 19th Century. Bring it on!

Lynne Ahrens was a 22 year old guitar-playing secretary/copywriter at the advertising firm of McCaffrey & McCall when she was asked by producer George Newell if she’d like to contribute songs to the new Schoolhouse Rock project.

She wrote and sang “No More Kings.”

Think of her this weekend.

Ever since Jane Goodall died the left has relentless with their compassion and empathy towards animals. It's sickening!

UGH. Thanks for the information.

Birds of a feather.
