Big win for South Carolina, but the most impressive thing about it was that they won big despite some major blunders that looked like they were going to cost them.
The safety to start the 2nd half was huge ,the dropped ball INT that eventually led to the Bama fake field goal attempt could've killed them (especially since it should have been a big 1st down catch), and that 50-yard TD pass off blown coverage was a big momentum swing as well.
Alabama got flat out outplayed by a wide margin today. It could have been a blowout had SC played mistake free. I'd say that has to count for a lot in the rankings - Alabama looked untouchable and that they'd only lose if they beat themselves. Clearly this isn't the case and they lost by two TDs.
