Shortened, but ask me for explanation if need be. This is what I think the power rankings should be.
1. Auburn- Defense still is not there, but still dominant enough to beat any team in the country by 10 points or more. (Any given Saturday). Oh, hey Cam Newton
2. LSU- Did not get up for MSU coming into the Bayou but their toughest test lies @Auburn. Wanted: A quarterback
3. Alabama- Did not look supremely good against Ole Miss, but good enough to win by 13. I still like their chances to go 11-1, but their offense (McElroy) has to perk up
4. Mississippi State- Looked good enough to beat a Florida team that still has enough talent to go around. MSU is 1 win away from BOWL ELIGIBILITY (5-2)
5. South Carolina- Should not have lost to Kentucky. Dumb calls at the end of the game helped the Wildcats big time.
6. Arkansas- Bobby P's offense can still function without Mallett if he can't go next week, but that is a pretty tough loss. The defense was lit up by Newton, but still very solid as a defense.
7. Kentucky- Randall Cobb and Mike Hartline are playing above their heads right now. Cobb is a runner up for the SEC player of the year behind Newton at this point and that Kentucky defense is decent enough to get to a bowl.
8. Georgia- And just like that, Georgia is back in the SEC East division race. It didn't take much against Vanderbilt, though. 43-0 is pretty damn telling.
9. Florida- Offense = Bad. Defense is extremely good but Brantley is NOT the answer Gator fans thought he would be.
10. Mississippi- Looked O.K. against Alabama, but still a long way to go until they can fight for 8 wins again.
11. Tennessee- Tennessee had a bye, but they still looked pretty bad. Alabama will have no mercy. Good luck Vols
12. Vanderbilt- Shut out against Georgia. Lost to Connecticut. But, they did beat Eastern Michigan!
