South Carolina is a better team right now than Alabama. And they didn't lose to Vandy.


And their QB was hurt for multiple games. The committee has said previously that they take injuries into consideration

Alabama shouldn’t be in, but they will.

IMHO South Carolina is the second best SEC team at the moment.

I won’t disagree with that. I don’t see why so many posters (mainly Bama) think that’s such an outrageous comment.

That's asinine. They are playing well, though.

Seriously...it takes a football IQ bordering that of a dog turd to believe that USCe should go ahead of Ole Miss edit: don't just do a drive by downvote. Own up to your stupidity and explain your rationale for taking USCe over Ole Miss.


To start - I don’t unequivocally say that USC should go over Ole Miss. But to answer why one could make the argument.


Head to head competition is one data point among many.

It is not the be all to end all. ( Though it arguably should be very important.)

The objective of the CFP committee is to pick the best teams to play in the playoffs based on a number of factors.

If this was a case of Ole Miss OR South Carolina for the last spot, then I’d say it would be easy to pick Ole Miss. But when throwing a third team (Alabama) into the equation things get complicated.



When it comes to Ole Miss vs. USCe, isn't complicated at all. Ole Miss beat the shite out of them at Columbia six weeks ago. This QB that everyone suddenly is jacking off over couldn't even get the ball into the fricking endzone at home against Ole Miss. You want to talk "data points"? There's your data point, and it's pretty fricking big one. Adding a third team into the mix...Alabama...that also beat USCe doesn't complicate things at all as far as USCe is concerned. It's only complicated when choosing between Alabama and Ole Miss.

And as far as the 9 downvotes to my original post, as expected, not a single person has stated a case for including South Carolina instead of Ole Miss.

The fact that I’m saying they’re a better team right now means I’d rather play you than them, dumbass.

Alabama got blown the frick out against OU. They don't deserve to be in the top 15.

Are you high? South Carolina nearly lost to Mizzou 2 weeks ago, and needed the officials to scrape by.

If Bama played South Carolina tomorrow, who would be favored?

Yup. The same OU that just got their arse handed to them by LSU.

The SEC is a merry-go-round
