Many apologies for not posting, the work travel schedule had me away all weekend, but figured I'd post my SEC Power Poll (compiled by Garnet and Black Attack):
- LSU - Nutt's last game? D-Mac with one last Heisman push? Don't believe the 12-point spread; all signs point towards this one being another LSU nailbiter.
- Georgia - No doubt it's their own fault that their SEC Title hopes rested in Vandy's hands last week, but what a gut wrenching way to have to wait it all out again in another week, this time rooting for Kentucky.
- Florida - Other than the loss to Auburn, they've scored 49 in every home game this year.
- Auburn - Miles to Michigan, Tuberville thinking "Screw College Station, gimme Baton Rouge"??
- Tennessee - Given the way their season started, they've put together a pretty impressive string in winning 7 of 8, even if they needed Lady Luck to beat Vandy.
- Arkansas - You know, other than one blowout loss to Tennessee, they're awfully close to being undefeated in all their other games. Once again, that 12-point spread at LSU is just too high.
- Mississippi State - A lot of folks, us included, will be happy for Sly Croom if he gets this team their 7th win of the season against Ole Miss.
- Kentucky - Still has the firepower to ruin Tennessee's season this weekend. Regardless, they'll be off to their best bowl in years.
- South Carolina - After a 6-1 start, it's bizarre to think that a win against Clemson is necessary to secure that bowl berth. And even then, it'll be something on par with Shreveport.
- Alabama - That chuckling sound is NOT coming from Baton Rouge. No how, no way.
- Vanderbilt - Now THAT would have been a signature win. Always seems like "Coulda Woulda Shoulda" for the Commodores.
- Ole Miss - "Coulda Woulda Shoulda" would be a step UP for the Rebs, though they have a silver lining for next year in QB Brent Schaeffer (charter member of the "I can't believe he's not white" department; don't blame me, blame The Sports Guy).
