Graph is incorrect, just like every time SECN puts it up. South Carolina 2013.
South Carolina was #11 in the AP Poll when they lost to Tennessee.

Not according to the AP Poll. They were 11th and that is what the SEC Network looks at.

They had a CFP ranking the year before the playoff began?

Meant to say coaches poll, get fricked

It's still a shitty record, but yeah. It's not like any other programs not named Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson, Oklahoma and SC/Oregon have been lighting it up in the wins-against-top-10 department. All that graph tells me is if you have to play one of those programs annually, you're going to have a shitty record.
Look at other teams that play 'Bama annually:
LSU 2-8 (including BCSNCG)
Auburn 2-7
Ole Miss 2-7
Texas A&M 1-8
Miss State 0-9
Arkansas 0-9
Two of those programs have been national championship caliber and another one was ranked #1 for a little while. Not sure what any of their records are against top 10 during that period, but it ain't pretty.

You're wrong, they beat #4 South Carolina in 2013.

When you put it in graphic form, it really hits home that we came within a mere 59 points of breaking our streak.

There was not a single poll that had South Carolina ranked #4 when they played Tennessee. They were #11 in the AP.

Oh okay, you think gametime rankings are more important than end of season. Carry on.

And you think OP made the graphic lol

I wouldn't think that plain English and a rather simple graphic could be this hard to understand, but you've made it clear that I'm wrong.

There is no graphic in the OP. Nice try though.

To be fair, that probably is heavily made up of Bama and UF games.
So, you get multiple shots at the same 2 teams, and still can't figure out a single tack to beat them?
Thanks goodness (and JFF) we are a total bitch to only one team since we got here.
