SEC Power Poll, Week 11

Alabama vs. Florida in the SECCG, eh?  The more things change, the more they stay the same.

By the way, it’s a power poll, so don’t waste your time making transitive property arguments about my rankings.  That way lies madness.

1. Alabama.  The Tide sacked Dak Prescott nine times in three quarters, which was only four fewer times than Prescott had been sacked before in his entire career.  Good Lord.
2. Florida.  I wonder if Spurrier watched the Florida-South Carolina game.  And if he did, which team he rooted for.
3. Arkansas.  Hey, the Hogs have won five of their last six, including four straight conference games.  They’re hot.
4. LSU.  Leonard Fournette can only do so much.
5. Mississippi State.  At least you got Alabama out of your system, Bulldogs.
6. Mississippi.  Technically, Ole Miss still has a shot to win the West, but who are we kidding here?
7. Tennessee.  All that’s left for the Vols are the two most offensively challenged teams in the conference.
8. Georgia.  The Dawgs played an opponent with an even more dire quarterback situation than theirs.
9. Auburn.  The Gus Bus is in serious need of an engine overhaul.
10. Texas A&M.  If you’d have told me before the beginning of the season that the Aggies’ trip to Nashville might prove to be something of a challenge, I’d have laughed.  Now?  Not so much.
11. Vanderbilt.  Two conference wins are probably two more than most people thought this team was capable of this season.
12. Missouri.  A rough week ends with a satisfying win.
13. Kentucky.  You could argue that over the last two seasons, the Wildcats have turned out to be the SEC’s most consistent team.  That’s not a compliment.
14. South Carolina.  There are plenty of sad stories in the SEC this year, but the ‘Cocks may be the saddest.
