ESPN has updated its power rankings for each conference, and the Gators didn’t budge this week despite its defense finally showing up in an impressive beatdown of the Missouri Tigers on Saturday night.

UF held pat at No. 4 on the SEC power rankings, still behind Alabama, Georgia and Texas A&M, who handed UF its first loss on Oct. 10.

Florida has a chance to boost its standing this weekend when it takes on the Bulldogs in Jacksonville. There’s still a lot of conference football to be played, but the winner of the matchup will have the inside track toward winning the SEC East.

After losing to Auburn 48-11, LSU is 2-3 and has dropped all the way to No. 8 after winning the national championship last season.

Here are the full power rankings for the conference.

1. Alabama
2. Georgia
3. Texas A&M
4. Florida
5. Auburn
6. Arkansas
7. Missouri
8. LSU
9. South Carolina
10. Ole Miss
12. Kentucky
12. Tennessee
13. Mississippi State
14. Vanderbilt
