We recap the Akron game and first month of the season for the Gamecocks and give out grades for the month of September. How would you grade Shane Beamer, Clayton White, and Dowell Loggains. And, how much criticism and/or praise does each deserve?

Next, we breakdown the first month MVPs for this team and talk about the standouts that led the Gamecocks to a 3-1 start. We also look at where USC ranks statistically in several key areas so far this season. 

Finally we close the show with some long term projections with bowl picks and way too early basketball bracketology.
