SEC Power Poll Week Two

Sec_medium 

Full ballot will be at Garnet and Black Attack.

1. Georgia- Knowshon Moreno: 18 carries, 168 yards, 3 TDs. And the Dogs converted 9 of 12 on third down. Of course, they get the OBC next. We know how well UGA does against him.

2. Florida- They should have scored a lot more, but the FG at the end for the cover was nice. Also, the student section started a "S-E-C S-E-C" chant at the end of the game. So please don't hate us. KTHXBAI.

3. LSU- Moves to three despite bye because Auburn and Alabama made me very uncomfortable this weekend.

4. Auburn- They needed two picks late to secure the game as their four turnovers kept Southern Miss alive. This offense needs to start gelling quickly.

5. Alabama- How do you dominate Clemson, then let Tulane outgain you 318-172 and allow 18 first downs to your 11? All of this during your home opener too.

6. Tennessee- Not much to go on here, but I think we all agree they are more talented than the teams that follow.

7. Vanderbilt- A road win (granted, against Miami-OH) combined with a comeback victory over South Carolina puts them at 7 by default.

8. Ole Miss- Simply ran out of time against a better Wake Forest. While they are 1-1, they'd defeat every team below them on this list. Houston Nutt just might build a winner.

9. South Carolina- I should drop them lower because they were clearly overrated. But Spurrier always plays Georgia tough and wishful thinking keeps the Gamecocks artificially high.

10. Kentucky- Almost 300 on the ground for the ‘Cats, even if it was against Norfolk State.

11. Mississippi State- Showed why they were so highly thought of as they allowed only 148 yards and eight first downs against SE Louisiana.

12. Arkansas- Ugliest 2-0 record in college football. Their next four opponents are at Texas, Bama, UF and at Auburn. Bobby Petrino is reconsidering this whole college thing.

Vandy > Tennessee.

That said, The Conference has looked less deep and weaker overall that it has in years…

I agree. Unless Tennessee shows something against the Gators, they should be lower.

I still feel like the top half + 1 of the SEC is probably a lot stronger than any other conference, but the whole conference maybe a little bit better than the Big 12.

Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
