Undefeated South Carolina at Bama Tonight
- Thread starter Smashcat
- Start date
South Carolina probably wins, Bama may keep it close with a chance to win depending on what they get from Taylor. South Carolina being undefeated may get them a dose of the Kentucky treatment. Everyone will show up and want to celebrate the big win in football, may be a tough place to play
It will be interesting to see how far SMU and SC get before losing. Do they make the tournament undefeated?
100% chance that SMU will not make the tournament.
Agreed.
And is there a serious discussion of SC making the tourney undefeated by the other poster? LOL this is not some great or even good team. They will lose quite a bit coming up in SEC play and UK will finish higher than them in the standings.

Frank Martin might Reenact the scene from Full Metal Jacket tonight on his team when R. Lee Ermey went off on Private Pyle right before he blew him away
The word overrated comes to mind. Looks like they won't get through the night undefeated let alone the season.
Madison would get his buddy Paul Revere to help run the ball and beat them 3 TD's(one by land and 2 by sea)
Don't knock JMU. The upset #13 Virginia a couple years ago.
This is very predictable.
Always, always, always be skeptical of the power conference school that runs out to a great start against a steaming pile of nothing in the non-conference. Teams like that are, far more often than not, complete frauds. Especially if they're traditionally 2nd-tier teams (like SC).
USCjr's OOC schedule is rated 289th by Pomeroy.
Other strong candidates for major regression-
Pitt (14-1, schedule 323th)
Baylor (12-3, schedule 318th)
Ole Miss (12-3, schedule 313th)
The ville (13-3, schedule 300th)
Arizona (13-3, schedule 287th)
IU (14-3, schedule 278th)
West Virginia (15-1, schedule 276th)
A team can only play what's on its schedule, so sometimes a weak OOC means little. But having success against a 2 month run of almost nothing but bad teams often doesn't indicate any ability to sustain that success against teams with equal talent.

And with me picking, they'll upset the Patriots next.
This makes me feel better about USC though. I didn't think they were world beaters but I thought they were better than this.
I really believe that alot of fans and media experts were waiting to see what South Carolina would do on the Road vs. a decent team in the SEC. That is why at 15-0 they are only ranked #19 because they have a SOS at almost 200. They haven't played anyone all year and most of there games has been at Home. I do believe that they have a decent team but I don't see South Carolina winning the SEC this year like some of the experts have been talking about in last week or two. They have a terrible offense and I don't think its just South Carolina having a bad game tonight. They have a couple of good players but also USC has 4 or 5 seniors on there team so that makes them a decent team. I believe they will be lucky to go even at 9-9 in the SEC or 10-8 when its all said and done at end of SEC play. That will leave them around 23-8 or 22-9 heading into SEC Tourney and will probably end up with a double digit Seeding in the NCAA Tourney.
@Ole Miss, @Tn, @UGA coming up for SC...probably lose 2, if not all 3 of those. Oh and then @A&M, LSU and UK the next 3...good luck. The schedule is pretty cupcake after that, with @Ark the last game being the toughest I'd say. They will lose at least 6 SEC games.
The thing about the SEC is it has a bunch of good teams but in most years outside of UK and sometimes UF, it really lacks at the top.
So the SEC as a whole doesn't suck. It's just on the lower end of the power conferences in terms of talent on the top

I picked South Carolina buy only by 3 in OT, never had any idea that they would get a whuppin like they did
I really enjoy having Avrey Johnson coaching, in the league. Hopefully he sticks around Bama for a bit and helps build them up. I know his son transferred there and will play next year, so that should keep him there at least a couple years.
If some of these new coaches stick around and develop their recruiting the SEC could be a much improved, down the road.
