The Spiders head into the holiday stretch with a perfectly uneven weekend: both the men and women split their Thanksgiving trips, showing flashes of brilliance mixed with “let’s forget that happened” moments. Tom and Porter break down the Furman frustration, the Charlotte bounce-back, and why Daughtry going downhill should be a mandatory possession every game. On the women’s side, Maggie Dugan continues her national takeover while the Spiders regroup after running into TCU’s buzzsaw before absolutely torching Green Bay. We preview a winnable A-10 opener for the women, a massive early-season road test at Belmont for the men, and—most importantly—discuss Mooney’s wardrobe strategy.
