Predicting if the South Carolina Gamecocks will make the top 12 in the newest college football playoff rankings.

In last week’s rankings, the committee slotted the trio in this order: No. 13 Alabama, No. 14 Ole Miss and No. 15 South Carolina. Since then, the Gamecocks were the only team to beat a ranked opponent, knocking off No. 12 Clemson.

Dawn Staley has challenged South Carolina with an extremely tough early season schedule. The No. 3 Gamecocks have already faced four opponents who have made appearances in the AP Top 25 and have two more this week with No. 8 Duke and No. 9 TCU on the schedule.
