Our updated SEC Power Rankings (and after the top 3, does it really matter?)
Here are our updated SEC Power Rankings after the first week of October.
The season is half over, and it has become increasingly obvious that the SEC’s top three are a lot better than the other 11. It’s not a stretch to think that, like last season, 11 of the league’s 14 teams will win eight or fewer games.
14. Missouri (1-4)
Last week: 14th
The skinny: After a week off, the Tigers showed a pulse in a narrow loss at Kentucky. Does that say more about Mizzou or UK?
13. Ole Miss (2-3)
Last week: 13th
The skinny: If the Rebels don’t beat Vanderbilt this week in Oxford, an 0-8 SEC record beckons. Ole Miss last was winless in the SEC in 2008.
12. Arkansas (2-3)
Last week: 9th
