SEC Power Poll: Week 9

1. Ole Miss: Top defense in the nation. That wins championships in the SEC. In 2004.
2. Mississippi State: Can they sustain the momentum after three straight huge wins?
3. Auburn: If South Carolina beats Auburn this week, THAT would be a Clemsoning on Auburn's part.
4. Alabama: Maybe that Texas A&M game from 2012 has been eating at Nick Saban.
5. Georgia: The Dawgs are probably the least respected one loss team in the nation. I've heard rumors that GameDay is picking the bye week to give the Dawgs a good game this weekend.
6. LSU: Showing that there is still a significant gap between the East and the West.
7. Arkansas: Maybe being due isn't the best cure for no depth.
8. Kentucky: Kentucky is still a young team looking for answers. And LSU is better than they've shown the past couple of weeks. Alternatively, Les Miles won a bet with a voodoo woman and the SEC West better watch out.
9. Texas A&M: Now that's the Texas A&M we thought we were getting from the Big 12.
10. Tennessee: The Vols bowl chances are firmly placed on their ability to keep Worley from getting sacked less than 50 more times this season. I'd take the over on that, by the way.
11. Missouri: Somewhere in Columbia, a Missouri defensive player has just scored on Florida again.
12. South Carolina: Steve Spurrier to Florida wouldn't be the worst thing to happen to South Carolina this season.
13. Florida: Five years ago, who would have thought that Mike Bobo was the best head coaching candidate from Georgia's 1994 team?
14. Vandy: Bye week bump, but still just 14th in the conference.
