Denny Hamlin called his shot ahead of Dover, guaranteeing a win on his podcast, then followed through on his bold boast that would have made the Bambino proud and held off Kyle Larson down the stretch to park his Toyota in victory lane.  Hamlin wiggled past lapped traffic and never let Larson squeak by him over the final laps in […]

Clemson defensive back Nate Wiggins was selected with the 30th overall pick by the Baltimore Ravens in Thursday night’s opening round of the NFL Draft. Wiggins, known for his speed and ability to break on the ball, had two interceptions (including one run back for a touchdown against Florida Atlantic) and nine passes broken up this past season.  In 2022, […]

As it turns out, USC receiver Xavier Legette’s pre-Draft intuition that the Carolina Panthers would select him early proved to be correct.

The No. 1 pick in the NFL draft already has traded hands, with Carolina sending it more than a year ago to Chicago in a trade to move up to take Bryce Young first overall in 2023.  Based on recent history, plenty more first-round picks should change hands on Thursday night with teams either looking to move up a spot […]

Tuesday night’s road game at Georgia had the look and feel of a postseason contest, and a full moon kept watch over the center field wall. The moon and a season-high 4,183 fans saw No. 17 Georgia defeat No. 5 Clemson 4-3 in the 15th inning at Foley Field.  Clemson falls to 32-8, while Georgia improves to 30-10.  Clemson stays […]
