SEC Power Poll Ballot: Week Nine

by Gamecock Man on Nov 1, 2011 12:15 AM EDT in SEC Football

Here's my final ballot. As you'll see, I did place Ark. above USC. As underwhelming as Ark. has been lately, they have a couple of things going for them: 1., they beat Auburn, a common opponent USC lost to, and 2., their only loss is to Alabama, meaning they've only lost to a really, really good team. I also swapped Auburn and Georgia after realizing I had Georgia higher in the SBN blogpoll and that I do, in fact, think UGA is better.

1. LSU Tigers
2. Alabama Crimson Tide
3. Arkansas Razorbacks
4. South Carolina Gamecocks
5. Georgia Bulldogs
6. Auburn Tigers
7. Florida Gators
8. Mississippi St. Bulldogs
9. Vanderbilt Commodores
10. Tennessee Volunteers
11. Mississippi Rebels
12. Kentucky Wildcats

I checked on every major media sports site

and couldn’t figure out if any other SEC teams besides LSU and Bama were playing this weekend, or if they even existed at all.

Thank you for this list to reassure me that we still have a first place SEC team!

Braves.
Falcons.
Gamecocks.

I wouldn't be too offended by that. LSU-'Bama is deservedly one of the most anticipated SEC games in years. They're truly the class of the league. Don't forget that, as good as Arkansas might be, 'Bama completely abused the Hogs.

Good Call

I think Ark. should be ranked ahead of the Cocks for the reasons you mentioned. This is another hurdle for the program and this weekend will determine where we are as a team and a program.
