Things Shaping Up

14. Kentucky- They kept things interesting for awhile against the Gators, but they are still several athletes away to play 4 quarters with the big boys. 

13. Tennessee- They struggled. But a win is a win...right?? For this team that is being rebuilt, it sure is.

12. Missouri- A gut check for the Tigers in the first half, but they came out to play in the second half. Mizzou continues to impress. The meat of the schedule is slowly approaching. We'll see what they're made of.

11. Vanderbilt- A solid performance against a sneaky good team. Defense still has to find a way to get off the field quicker.

10. Arkansas- Who is this team? I still can't read who they are. If they can play with the sense of urgency they did Saturday the rest of the year, they'll be tough team to beat.

9. Mississippi State- Bye week.

8. Auburn- Bye week.

7. Ole Miss- The fears and concerns I had about the Rebs came to fruition Saturday. This team is so young and going on the road to Bryant-Denney Stadium is just too big of a task to overcome when there is so much youth on one team. This team has to find some kind of consistent running game if they wanna compete in the SEC. I still think they are heading in the right direction for the future.

6. Florida- They took care of things on the road in the SEC with a backup QB. That's about all that can be said.

5. South Carolina- This team still doesn't care and until they do, they will continue to struggle with everyone, including scrub team like USF.

4. Texas A&M- Aggies found themselves on the road and in a dog fight. They played so poorly. But to get a win showed a lot about their character.

3. LSU- Tigers were there unitl the end and couldn't close the deal. This defense struggled which is so unlike an LSU team. The defensive line really struggled to get any kind of pressure on the QB. Very impressed with the offense, but defenses win games in this league.

2. Georgia- The Dawgs continue to roll. This was a gutsy performance by the Dawgs. It's very rare in the SEC, with two historically defensive programs, to get into this kind of shootout. They refused to lose control of this game. And when the defense needed to step up and make a play, they did just that. Don't be surprised at all if we see the Dawgs in the SEC Championship game and maybe even the National Championship.

1. Alabama- A decent performance by a team that seemed to not respect their opponent. We have yet to see the Tide's best performance. They are so much better than we saw Saturday, which is terrifying.
