Rivalry week went as most expected. Some games were closer than expected. Some were indicative that some rivalries should no longer be saved for rivalry week.
1. Georgia (12-0)
Georgia Tech shouldn’t be their last game of the season.
(Last week: #1, beat Georgia Tech 45-0)
2. Alabama (11-1)
“WE JUST BEAT YOUR HURT BACKUP QUARTERBACK BY 2 IN 4OT!”
(Last week: #2, beat Auburn 24-22)
3. Ole Miss (10-2)
This is the first time Ole Miss has finished with a regular season with 10 wins. Meh.
(Last week: #3, beat Mississippi State 31-21)
4. Texas A&M (8-4)
Jimbo Fisher has four losses and 80 billion dollars. Wasn’t Kevin Sumlin cheaper?
(Last week: #4, lost at LSU 27-24)
5. Arkansas (8-4)
Sorta tired of the whole “wow what a great job by Pittman to resurrect this program” business.
A. they weren’t THAT bad.
B. Auburn (6 losses), Mississippi State (5 losses), and Texas A&M (4 losses) are their best wins.
(Last week: #5, beat Missouri 34-17)
6. Mississippi State (7-5)
They can’t play in the rain. They can’t play anytime really, but they couldn’t miss a thing in Auburn of course.
(Last week: #6, lost to Ole Miss 31-21)
7. Auburn (6-6)
They should be higher than this after taking the #2 team to 4OT, but I’m trying to at least appear respectable. But say something. I dare you.
(Last week: #7, lost to Alabama 24-22)
8. Kentucky (9-3)
Any SEC East team with 9 wins and a rivalry game outside the SEC is immediately docked 2-3 wins.
(Last week: #8, beat Louisville 52-21)
9. Tennessee (7-5)
You gave up 21 points to Vandy? Hmmm… maybe you won’t start next season in the Top 15.
(Last week: #9, beat Vanderbilt 45-21)
10. LSU (6-6)
Has LSU gotten better since they fired Coach O?
(Last week: #12, beat Texas A&M 27-24)
11. Missouri (6-6)
Missouri is 6-6 and 6-6 is Missouri.
(Last week: #10, lost at Arkansas 34-17)
12. South Carolina (6-6)
Of course you lay an egg this week…
(Last week: #11, lost to Clemson 30-0)
13. Florida (6-6)
I knew Mullen was holding you back.
(Last week #13, beat Florida State 24-21)
14. Vanderbilt (2-10)
Well, there’s always basketball season… oops, nevermind.
(Last week: #14, lost at Tennessee 45-21)
