![]() Wow, that's pretty crazy! I know everyone wants championships, but had you told me the season would end up like this after week three, I wouldn't have believed you.

![]() Wow. A lot of people would argue, however, at least they provide reasoning and can back up their ranking with a formula.

![]() Wow at least the rest of the country is taking notice. Now these next couple years will be the difference because now people expect us to win and are putting us in elite company. We don't surprise anyone anymore and everyone will be gunning to play us. We will get everyone's best game and the pressure to perform will be great. But I think with our coaching staff and talent we can live up to the expectations. GO COCKS!!

IT'S MY GAMEFACE !

![]() I don't think anyone who is a true Gamecock fan will agree that we are the
"final" #2 team in the country, but it's nice to see us getting some respect in the final rankings that we haven't been getting from the national "experts" the past few seasons. I don't think even this poll's results are saying that we're the second best team in the Nation, but we are the second best "stats wise" and had a remarkable season when you compared to how the other nationally ranked teams played their individual schedules. We actually did a remarkable job with wins/losses vs our Strength of Schedule considering we were the team with the lowest number of seniors in the nation, and playing with a second level defense that was loaded with freshmen and first year starters. Said it a few times since the end of the season, and I'll say it again here for emphasis reasons... This (IMO) was Steve Spurrier's best coaching job (start to finish of the year) in his entire career as a head coach at any school !!

![]() No...nobody is arguing that we are the #2 team in America at the end of the season. However, based on the criteria they used, then we are the #2 team in their "final" rankings.
I absolutely love the fact that they give their formula instead of just throwing the rankings out there without any rhyme or reason. This one has a science behind it. |

![]() Says the man whose team is rated lower by the site. Coincidence? I think not.

I've seen you say multiple times how AU was one bad half away from being undefeated. Well guess what, we only had one bad loss, and it was basically because of one tremendous catch. So, again, quit trying to convince yourself and everyone else that AU was better than they actually were. Sure, you were one bad half away from being undefeated, but you were also one fluke play away from being a two-loss team, just like USC.

![]() Good for Auburn you won the SEC but please don't get on here trying to convince us you dominated everyone you played. Because if UGA can knock the ball down and Bama makes a tackle you don't go... Not to mention the loss the LSU. So please spare us if we don't agree.

![]() I wish we had played this year so we could have settled this. But looking at the common opponents I don't see how there is argument. SC lost to UTenn and UGA. AU whipped Tenn and beat, however luckily, Tenn. SC beat Mizzou, in miracle fashion * cough cough* in OT. Auburn whipped Mizzou. AU loses #1 FSU, @#14 LSU. SC losses @NR UGa, @ NR Tenn. AU>SC
