SEC Power Rankings – End of regular season: Razorbacks bring up the rear

The bad programs, like Arkansas, stayed bad. The good ones, like Alabama, stayed good. The SEC has become a cliche.

Oh, look.

Georgia, Alabama and LSU are among the league’s best teams.

Arkansas, Vanderbilt and Mississippi State are not.

It’s almost as though the SEC hierarchy is well established at this point. Sure, teams can jump up out of their tier every so often, but they’re ultimately going to settle where they belong.

And, boy, did 2023 ever show that.

Not a thing was surprising about the final power rankings. The best teams are the best. The worst are the worst. And the ones always in the middle are, unsurprisingly, in the middle.

College football, at least, SEC football, has become boring. Maybe Oklahoma and Texas can bring some life and shake up the old guard.

Or not.

Anyway, here are the final SEC Power Rankings of the season.
