I said recent history shows

that if you win the SEC you will play in the NC. We could do "what ifs" all day long but it all boils down to South Carolina wasn't good enough to win the SEC that year. Hence the reason they didn't play for the NC. Auburn was and they played for it and won it just like every SEC champion has done since 2005. Hell the SEC even had two teams in there last year lol. Right or wrong that's what happened. I think it's safe to say that if SC ever wins the SEC they have a great shot to play for the NC, damn near a shoe in. I don't think that is reaching at all. Now saying that SC will win the SEC this year would be reaching lol. It's a dumb convo because it's likely never to happen..
