The Week 8 SEC Power Poll is finally out, and it has Florida in a predictable spot: No. 3. The Gators once again take the bronze in the Power Poll, marking their second straight week at No. 3.
And any gain on No. 2 — Alabama, this week, as the Tide slide back to No. 2 and allow LSU to take the top spot — was really incremental: Florida picked up 130 points two weeks ago, and 142 points this week. The difference, one of 12 points, is fully explained by a new voter giving the Gators a third-place vote.
