The SEC played numerous cupcakes this past week. Now, the SEC Championship is officially set: the LSU Tigers will face the Georgia Bulldogs in Atlanta.
SEC Mike released his week 14 SEC Power Rankings after last week’s action. Is the criteria of these rankings the best team now? Or the best bodies of work?
SEC WEEK 14 POWER RANKINGS
#1 LSU
#2 Georgia
#3 Florida
#4 Alabama
#5 Auburn
#6 Tennessee
#7 Texas A&M
#8 Kentucky
#9 Ole Miss
#10 South Carolina
#11 Missouri
#12 Mississippi State
#13 Vanderbilt
#14 Arkansas— SEC Mike (@MichaelWBratton) November 24, 2019
Florida over Alabama is an interesting choice, especially since the Crimson Tide only have one loss. Even without Tua, Alabama would beat Florida on a neutral field. Both schools are playing excellent football with their back-up quarterbacks, but haven’t done enough to make the SEC Championship.
If Georgia loses to LSU, then the Crimson Tide may make the playoff despite SEC Mike’s low power ranking. Alabama will need to defeat Auburn and look impressive to make the playoff. It’d be the Crimson Tide’s only ranked win of the season. If the favored teams win out, then Alabama’s resume would be compared with the Utah Utes and the Oklahoma Sooners, who would boast conference championships.
