Palmetto Series
Mar 5, 2018, 7:16 PM
|
|
In all the messages about the 4 peats someone mentioned the Palmetto Series.
I had never heard of it, so I looked it up.
It started in 2015 and SCU has won the past 2 or all previous.
I had to see how it was scored and here are the 2016-2017 results:
South Carolina (8 points)
women’s soccer
women’s volleyball
women’s golf
women’s basketball
women’s diving
men’s tennis
women’s tennis
academic point
Clemson (7 points)
men’s soccer
football
men’s basketball
baseball
men’s golf
women’s cross country
food drive point
What a joke. Don't mess with those SC women.

I'll let them have the palmetto thing every year so long as we keep stomping them in the major mens' sports. Sorry ladies!

Academic Point?
Mar 5, 2018, 7:32 PM

So the school where student-athletes “have to try to fail” had a higher GPA than our student-athletes?
Shocker.

ACADEMIC POINT?!

I'm sure there's some breakdown of what this is, but at the end of the day you would have no way of convincing me, or any other rational person with half a mind that we don't win this one automatically.
For the sake of curiosity - APR?

The Palmetto Series is about 15th on my list of goals accomplished in Clemson Athletics.
I kid you not, most folks have never heard of it.

I found 2017-2018 will be worse because they won the food drive. Everything else unchanged so far.

Sorry. Even worse as they won food drive and women's cross country.
currently 7-5 with only men's tennis and academic point left.

It’s a bunch of crap! I’m not sure why DRad even brought it up yesterday.

To make it relevant, football should be worth 10 pts,
Mar 5, 2018, 10:16 PM
|
|
men's basketball and baseball, about 5 pts each and men's soccer about 3 points. Two points for men's golf and only one point each for any of the others. That would put Clemson ahead, about 25 to 7.

Does Clemson even have a diving team anymore? So all the usuc divers had to do was hit the water to win a palmetto cup point?

Any coot would gladly trade that women's diving win

(how is that a sport?) or any of those other audience-less events for a win in football.
