The college football season is at the quarter pole and four games in, the SEC is not the best in the sport.
It’s an unsual spot for the league, which has been the most dominant for a bulk of the last 20 years. Occasionally, conferences like the Big Ten, ACC or Pac-12 have emerged to challenge for the top spot. Now, at least two of those three are markedly better. And the Big 12 may be, too.
A lot of it has to do with quarterback play. The SEC has the bodies at the position, but for whatever reason, past successes have not turned in to current ones for most.
Enter our Week 4 SEC Quarterback Power Rankings. The initial one of the season, this one takes into consideration a number of factors. A quarterback’s passing totals, rushing totals and his team’s record are major, of course, but so is past success.
That said, for each game that passes, past success becomes less important to the overall ranking.
So, here they are. You’ll disagree wildly, probably. Go for it.
