What is happening?!?

Week 2 was very confusing to me. Trying to set up these power ranking was very head scratching. But here we go...

14. Kentucky- Just to clarify my stance, Kentucky WILL be here all year unless they beat someone of any significance. They are simply terrible.

13. Vanderbilt- This spot was very conflicting. But I think the Commodores have earned this spot. They are coming off 2 very tough games, but my problem is can they keep their heads up after a difficult 2 weeks. Getting back to a bowl game might be very difficult at this point.

12. Auburn- Take it from someone who watched this team play live this weekend: the Tigers are absolutely terrible. I mean atrocious. If Kiehl Frazier is the best option Aubrn has at QB they are in for a LONG year. They can't tackle on defense, their offense line can't block, receivers can't get open...well you get the point. Terrible. It will be nothing short of a miracle for them to make a bowl game.

11. Ole Miss- The rebels have not as much earned this spot as they have falling into. Now give credit where credit is due, Bo Wallace has done what any SEC athlete should do to 2 awful oppositions. But after the last 2 seasons from hell you can understand the excitement coming from Oxford. The offense is much much improved under Feeze, but the defense still looks awful. Going into SEC schedule, this could be a big problem.

10. Texas A&M- One half is all the Aggies had in them, against a not so good Florida team. I have terrible new for the Aggies: this was only the first of 8 games against this SEC, and this was probably the 7th worst tema you play. Uh oh...

9. Florida- The Gators only moved up because I couldn't put them below a team they beat on the road. They looked much better this week, but I'm still not sold. QB play is still way too shaky for me to have any kind of confidence in them.

8. Missouri- Mizzou did exactly as I predicted in last weeks blog (look if you don't believe). They gave Georgia a game for a half, then completely lost control of the game. I expect the 2 new SEC schools to struggle all year, which delights me to no end. ESS EEH SEE!!!!!

7. Arkansas- The most head scratching game of this early season. Did Bobby Petrino really mean THAT much to this team that the razorbacks can't even beat a Sun-Belt team? Well I really don't know how to answer that question. I think this was a fluke, but it really makes you question where the hell do the hogs go from here.

6. Mississippi State- The bulldogs start 2-0 for the first time since 1999. Take a minute and soak that in. This defense will be a defense that all the SEC will be talking about this year. The front 4 along with the defensive secondary could compete with any one in the nation. The offense is still a work in process in my opinion. Tyler Russell looks to finally give the dawgs a legit QB for the first time since...well, forever. The offensive line still looks somewhat shaky and Tyler is holding on to the ball a bit too long, but overall, one has to be pleased. Any win in the SEC, especially the West, is huge in the early season.

5. Tennessee- Probably the most surprising team in the SEC in this young season. The have a great QB, weapons on the outside and very solid defense. This is recipe for a good year in the SEC. I never thought I would say this, but expect the Vols to compete for the East this year.

4. South Carolina- The ole ball coach seems to remind us every year how great of a QB coach he is. The back up, Dylan Thompson, came in and looked like a new player after struggling last week. The only thing that concerns me is the struggle of Lattimore. Is the knee bothering him more than we initially thought?

3. Georgia- For a team that plays "old man football," the dawgs put on a clinic in Columbia. This might finally be Mark Richt's year.

2. LSU- After giving up 3 points on Washington's first drive, LSU woke up and looked like te team we thought they would be this year. Mettenburger is getting comfortable, they have 3 legit options and RB and the defense is killing people. They are who we thought they were.

1. Alabama- I love Nick Saban:
