Only because the computers hate us. It’s the same thing with our NET ranking. I think everyone knows we have a better chance than that. Not saying we will win, but no one who actually pays attention thinks we only have a 10% chance to win.

On SEC Nation this AM ESPN analytics give Gamecocks a 3% chance to win the conference.I hope Lamont is using this disrespect as a motivator.In fact I’d be shocked if he wasn’t.
