Press Box Sports Net South Carolina Upsets No. 3 Georgia in Double Overtime The South Carolina Gamecocks just pulled off the first major upset of the college football season. The Gamecocks pulled out a 20-17 victory over the Georgia Bulldogs. While it took South Carolina two overtimes to defeat the Bulldogs, they leave Athens in shock today. The loss could very well end the chances of Georgia reaching the college football playoffs this season as they trudge through the rest of their SEC schedule.  The game itself could be called somewhat sloppy by both teams. Neither team scored on their firs ..read more

Press Box Sports Net Penn State hangs on against Pitt 17-10 The Penn State Nittany Lions escaped with a 17-10 victory against the Pitt Panthers on Saturday. The low-scoring affair may keep this game from sounding like an exciting one, but it was to an extent. Especially on the defensive side of the ball. The Panthers threw several different blitzes at Penn State and it certainly helped keep this game within reach.  The Panthers held Penn State quarterback Sean Clifford to just 222 yards and their pass rush caused him to complete only 46 percent of his passes. The Nittany Lions scored both t ..read more
