SEC Power Poll Ballot


  1. LSU - At a cupcake and remain the anointed ones.
  2. Georgia - Wow. A dark, dominating performance during most of the game. Knowshon, Stafford, Baily, and Curren all looked great against the Aubs, who turned in a strange performance. The crowd, the jerseys, the noise. It was magical night in Athens.
  3. Florida - South Carolina is a shell of their former self, but Tebow could have broken down anyone Saturday. He turned in the performance of the season so far (sorry DMac). Maybe the Gators should kick Harvin off the team if that is how Tebow plays in his absence.
  4. Tennessee - Phil is holding steady. I admit I thought that the Hawgs would beat the Vols, but the Big Orange gently etherized the pigs with a solid, workmanlike performance. It helps when the opposing coach seems not to want to use his best player in the first half. The Vols should be making hotel reservations for Atlanta.
  5. Auburn - That was a weird game for the Aubs. I understand the momentum and the atmosphere was strongly against them, but they crawled back in it to take a lead. Then, they promptly fell apart. Without penalties, it would have been worse. Maybe they just ran into a buzz saw, but it was an uninspired game from the Aubs.
  6. Kentucky - Struggled through an ugly game in Nashville. Be glad it wasn't on your TV. UK needs to clean up its play before it runs the SEC East championship gauntlet in the next two weeks.
  7. Arkansas - What was that? Listen to me, Nutt, run the ball. First and second half. Over and over. You may pass once every ten plays and then only play action to Monk. Don't be cute. You only have a few games left to listen to me.
  8. Mississippi State - Start saving now, State fans. You can gamble it all away in December when you visit Memphis or Shreveport. A big win over Bama is what you get when you combine a solid D, a battering ram running back, and a pressured John Parker Wilson.
  9. South Carolina - Yikes. Could Jasper have been this important? The offense is decent enough, but their defense is rotted out.
  10. Alabama - Saban will build a great program in Tuscaloosa, but he is predisposed to embarrassing first year losses. It should frighten Bama fans that their mood is dependent on the play of John Parker Wilson. Prozac is being rationed in Alabama.
  11. Vanderbilt - Hung with UK but committed too many goofs to win it.
  12. Ole Miss - Two weeks aren't enough prep for the Oge to pull off a win against LSU.

the box score makes it look like a weird game for auburn, but the box score doesn't take the officiating into account. you take away some truly baffling calls, and you're left with a 52-6 victory, which is exactly what it looked like in the 4th quarter.

I like the list, think I would switch USC and Bama though, if for nothing other than Carolina's collapse seems so huge to me.
