MONTGOMERY, Ala. — With several SEC teams reeling from opening-week flops the Southeastern Conference didn't look like "top to bottom" the best league in the country as its coaches have long proclaimed.
Only the top teams did their part.
SEC teams in the bottom portion of the standings are looking to rebound after embarrassing setbacks, lowlighted by Tennessee's loss to Georgia State . So yes, the top of the SEC is still mighty with Georgia and Alabama and a handful of other teams looking formidable in their openers.
For the bottom half, after a weekend that was mostly just mighty painful there's a lot of work to do.
