The schedule this season is clearly tougher than last. Well at least on paper (thanks a bunch South Carolina). Some elements are the same but some are different. If Carolina can find a way to win most to all of their games there is a great chance they will be play for a berth in the third annual college football playoff. Since championships and Carolina are synonymous with college sports, this just makes for another feather in an already full cap.
