not this year my friend. Not this year.


Now THIS poster, I don't know...I just can't quite find the words to adequately describe how misguided are his (or her) arguments, and I'm assuming he or she is incredibly difficult to look at as well.

I meant to release this like a week before the coaches poll came out so folks had time to vote without worrying about other polls, but I found out yesterday that it was coming out tomorrow.

Preseason...Oregon State #18...25 is way to low, but ssssssshhhhhhhh the "ASSASSIN" is coming!

I do too LOL

the only way Georgia will beat Clemson is to outscore them, because not much defense will be played

it has the feeling of a 55-48 game

Our defense can't be any worse than it was against NC State last year against UGA :L

How on earth are Clemson and UGA ranked above USC in these ballots? We've dominated both for 3-4 years and our talent loss is not as substantial as UGA's (who we beat by 4 TDs last year). Do you really think UGA is going to turn that far around relative to the Gamecocks? Makes no sense whatsoever.
As for Clemson, like UGA they're obviously living off the tradition of pre-season overrating. Gamecocks will beat both of them AGAIN this year.

You know why. Polls are subjective (except the few that utilize actual stats). Nothing to get your panties in a twist about :bawling:

You misspelled phonetically in your reason for editing... but coming from a Cock, I'm not surprised :clap:

And the joke sailed completely over your head because you're a tater.

But hey, ho, we're all one big happy family in South Carolina. And I mean that literally.

What's your county?

For the record I don't agree one more good year from Texas A&M. They will be better in 2014 than 2013 with or without Manziel. They have recruited some serious talent that just needs to mature. Manziel alone will keep them in the top 10 while the kids grow but I think they take a slight step back this year. Although not by much. Defense is about to be a serious strength in College Station going forward in 2014.

This poster, besides being extremely handsome, is incredibly intelligent and insightful.

I find no material flaws in his arguments.

I thought I read that South Carolina has more under classmen than any other team in the SEC. Is that correct?

So, person who moved my comment, how about you just delete it next time instead of moving it somewhere that makes it appear like I am strangely talking to myself. Thanks...

Slightly incorrect: more under classmen than any other team in the COUNTRY.

Phil Steele

7 returning offensive starters, including Shaw, Ellington, and Ace Sanders, and 5 returning defensive starters, including Clowney.

Biggest losses for Good Carolina are Lattimore (obviously), Kenny Miles, and all three starting linebackers.

We're uh...going to have to throw more...this year...that's a little scary.

under classman doesn't mean much these days when everyone who's good heads to the NFL after 3 years.

Someone voted Nebraska #1...

It's clear many don't take this thread seriously.

It won't hurt the overall rankings if a few people want to be homers(although I did put bama #1 lol). So, really don't care, I think it says more about them than anything.

also most do take it seriously though some are homers

when the final poll comes up at least 5 people will ask who in the world voted Nebraska number one

Alabama being ranked #1 is realistic though.

Yeah, that's pretty clean cut. Bama is #1 until somebody beats them and takes them off the throne. It is up to everybody else to dethrone them.
