COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - While Steve Spurrier says South Carolina doesn't pay much attention to college football polls, he would rather his Gamecocks be in one than out.
For the first time this season, the Gamecocks are ranked, reaching No. 25 in The Associated Press college football poll following their 38-14 victory over South Carolina State of the Football Championship Subdivision.
The Gamecocks (4-1, 1-1 Southeastern Conference) have been ranked at least one week in four of Spurrier's five seasons with the program. The Gamecocks were 24th last Nov. 9 but dropped out the following week after a 56-6 defeat at Florida.
Spurrier had not heard about the ranking when he talked to media members Sunday.
The top four in the ranking is unchanged. Florida is No. 1, followed by Texas, Alabama and LSU. The Gators play at LSU on Saturday.
