Didn't Alabama mollywhop South Carolina?


And Creighton beat Alabama so does that mean they should be ranked ahead of Bama?



You're going to have to forgive them, some bama fans struggle with how things like this work. There's a large handful of them that still can't comprehend how on earth UGA finished ranked higher in football even though we had half as many losses as they did.

15. South Carolina


shite's wild. Aside when they had to rank us high in the final poll after the Final 4 run, we haven't really been close to this since the '90s.

Here's how things work, Ala is 33 spots higher in the Net than SCar, the rankings they actually use.

Nah man, I'm cool with SCar, enjoyed watching the run. I hope they win it if we don't.

Fans of sorry basketball teams don't need to interject themselves into grown people basketball discussions.

For whatever its worth, coaches seem to broadly agree with my opinion that Alabama is a little bit better than South Carolina right now.

Nobody is winning anything in early February though, so we'll just see how it goes...

I do tend to think South Carolina played an especially outlier bad game v. Alabama...so the 30 point win is a bit of an aberration but I'd still pick Alabama in a rematch because there seemed to be some matchup issues there for USC.

I don't dispute that Alabama is the better team. They smoked us. But the AP poll isn't based on a head-to-head matchup or who the coaches think is better. It's about the resume up to this point and how the team is playing RIGHT now, and I think SC has the advantage in both of those areas.

Cocks ain’t losing at home to ole miss. Only chance they could drop one at home would be to UT and that’s probably a toss up.
