- LSU. Just flat-out dominant against whomever they play. Also the only SEC team to beat two BCS-league teams, though calling Mississippi State a "BCS-league team" is admittedly a stretch.
- Florida. Yeah, beating Troy by four TDs isn't bad. But it's not nearly as impressive as throttling Virginia Tech.
- Alabama. They really should have beat Vandy by more than 14 points. But they're more impressive overall this season than anyone below them.
- South Carolina. Beating Georgia doesn't prove anything in and of itself. But history says the Gamecocks are pretty good when they beat Georgia.
- Tennesseee. They're lower than South Carolina because both had a scare against a mid-major team (though Tennessee's was not as frightening), but Tennessee lost to Cal. But no homerism at all. No, sir. None whatsoever.
- Georgia. Still riding a bit on their win against Oklahoma State here, and the fact that I don't trust Arkansas until they beat an SEC team.
- Arkansas. Houston Nutty still bothers me, but we'll have our answers soon enough. Like, by Saturday.
- Kentucky. They've put up a lot of points, but have they really proven anything? Not yet.
- Auburn. So which one was the fluke: Beating Kansas State or losing to South Florida? Right now, I'm betting the former.
- Vanderbilt. They've done nothing to impress me, but nothing to make me think they're worse than -- or even as bad as -- the Mississippis.
- Ole Miss. Well, they'll beat Mississippi State, so they'll get one win in conference. Which means they're better than...
- Mississippi State. Beating Tulane means you have a program that could play Appalachian State close. Not much more.
