00:00The rankings could have looked a lot different had South Carolina been able to close out their

00:06game against Texas A&M, one of the wildest games of the season. A&M dominates the entire first

00:13half. Somehow A&M comes back in this thing and wins by a final of 31 to 30. I was watching this

00:21game, Bill, and even with A&M and that miraculous comeback that they had, I was stunned that South

00:26Carolina just completely fell apart. They got the ball back on offense several times even after A&M

00:32had the lead. Sellers, I saw at the end of the game, taking a sack on fourth down. My gosh,

00:38like, I mean, you talk about a bad loss for South Carolina, not the worst loss for them this year,

00:43the worst loss for them in years. Right. It cuts both ways for Texas A&M. What a horrible first

00:49half they had with the red zone turnovers, the missed field goal, getting down by 27 at home.

00:55But like you just said, it was the lightning speed in which they came back. I mean, Marcel

01:00Reid in the third quarter was nine of 12 with three touchdown passes over 200 yards. They even

01:06ran a bad play down by the goal line and they're able to make the plays to stop Sellers and pull

01:12out the victory. It does get Texas A&M in the playoff. If they beat Texas, they're in the SEC

01:17championship. I guess if you feel like the Longhorns will upset and play spoiler against the Aggies,

01:22that would set up a probable Alabama Georgia SEC championship game. But all three of those

01:27teams are in the playoffs anyway. So yeah, that was the wildest part of a very wild Saturday. No

01:33question.
