Kansas State played three currently ranked teams, losing two of them by a margin of 110-62 and winning one 36-35. They also had a pretty awful out of conference schedule and didn't play a lot of teams with winning records.

South Carolina played in a terrible SEC East, played two currently ranked teams and went 1-1 (same as us, but we pantsed Nebraska on national TV), they also lost to Auburn at home.

Neither of those schedules scream "world beater" to me. I like our resume against either team.

They will end up a top 10 team maybe top 7-8.  Who would have thought that was a possibility at the beginning of the year.  It will also set up very nicely next year.  I honestly think we might be pre-season top 5 next year (Not that pre-season rankings mean anything)

This season has shown that preaseason rankings mean a lot.  It is much harder to climb up hill to the high rankings when you are unranked at the beginning of the season. Look at Virginia Tech going into this week. #3 team and losing to the only ranked team they played by 20 at home.

I have to think that the anti-rematch rhetoric is going to push OkSU into the MNC game.  Of course, they'll go there and be beaten by LSU (just like Alabama probably would), but everyone will instead say that it proves Alabama should have played for the title and how elite the SEC is compared to the rest of the teams in America.

UM should be 12th, so it is nice to see them ahead of a couple of other teams.  UM is probably a little overrated, but I definitely think it is one of the top 12-14 outfits in the country.
