A "B+". I thought Carolina was ok,but not among the nations best. But wait,they did win the state championship and some lamecock Bowl Championship Bowl trophy. Just disregard this message.

Seems like they forgot that Auburn lost to LSU. Not saying they didnt have a great year but they didnt just have the one loss to FSU

The nations best ???

FSU - Checks out . National Champs. Sackerlina - not hardly. Lost to a team that missed out on the bowl season completely ( kind of hard to be that bad these days with with like 109 bowl games, but the Vols were that poor.) Calling the Dirtpeckers the nations best is an insult to the "bests" of anything. USA Today has got to read more into what it prints.

The nation voted them the #4 team in the country. Not exactly mediocre.

USuC beat 3 teams that won a BCS game. Too bad they had that cocking to Tenn or they could have at least played in the SECCG.

I believe SoCar beat 2 teams (not 3) that won BCS games

in Clemson and UCF. They like to claim Missouri too but the Cotton Bowl is not a BCS game.
They did not beat any of the other 3 BCS winners: FSU, OU, or Michigan State.

You bring up a good point.You could make the argument that the Cotton Bowl was once a Major Bowl,and was ,imo,trying to regain some lost status,but it was not a BCS Bowl. But,on another note, not counting BCS Bowls,the coots beat six teams that participated in,and " won" their bowl games.

they were all soooo pizzed about losing to the coots (like us), that they stepped it up & won their bowlgames...simple
SCU backed into #4!!! don't they like to say we packed into the OB???
it's OK though...we'll take the great press for ourselves!
screw the ceewts!!!

I hate sounding like a coot but we should have won that game. Clemson is clearly the better team.
Key Dabo saying we'd have won 8 of 10 had we played them multiple times.
