DarthYoda2594 20 Quietly on a win streak, Tennessee win improves, Bama loss means nothing at this point. Could sneak up with attrition next week, even into playoff talk if they somehow beat Georgia.

GeauxTri 20 6-3. Wins over Tennessee and Texas A&M are highly valuable, and the schedule is difficult. Three losses prevent a higher ranking.

redrumsoxLoL 21 South Carolina is having a similar season as they did in 2024 with a late season string of wins that could get them into playoff contention if they can defeat Georgia in a couple of weekends.

sgtshenanigans 23 Gutty win for LaNorris Sellers South Carolina. After a rough start to SEC play the Gamecocks have managed to make the back half of the season fun for the fans.
smartkeg 23 The wins over TAMU and Tennessee are meaningful results. South Carolina has a strong enough collection of performances to move ahead of several teams with better records but weaker schedules.

Tarmacked 23 They're alive! If Lanorris can't play, this is trouble moving forward.

ArlyntheAwesome 24 SCar > LSU and i'm so willing to fight about it, LSU doesn't have any quality wins with the power of retrospect meanwhile SCar still has multiple upsets of teams that continued to be good after the fact.

MyAngelMiraidon 24 NEW - Win against Tennessee and a close loss to Kentucky but also ran over by Alabama and loss to Miss State. Then there's Florida and Oklahoma showing they are at least above average in the SEC. Very inconsistent but I guess they can show they are legit at times??
