Brock Bowers, Christopher Smith lead Week 9’s top performers list

Who stood out in Week 9? Our SEC editorial team on the College Wire weigh in.

During Week 9 action in the SEC, the featured game on CBS pit the Georgia Bulldogs against the Florida Gators in the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party in Jacksonville, Florida. While the game was close for a time, UGA ran away with it.

In the early window, we saw the final game of the Bryan Harsin era as the Auburn Tigers fell to the Arkansas Razorbacks 41-27. That snapped a six-game skid in the series for the Hogs. On Monday, Harsin was fired after just 21 games on the Plains.

After a huge win for South Carolina in Week 8, they fell to unranked Missouri at home, 23-10. The blowout of the week featured the Tennessee Vols rolling past Kentucky, 44-6. In the night game, we saw Ole Miss hold off the Texas A&M Aggies in College Station, 31-28.

This week we will see all 14 SEC teams in action. The biggest showdowns will feature the Vols coming to Athens to face the No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs and the Alabama Crimson Tide heading to Death Valley to face off with LSU. Both games could determine the SEC Championship matchup.

With Week 10 on the horizon, our editorial team weighs in on the top performers in the SEC from last weekend’s action. Each editor voted on seven different categories.
