What a wild week to start off college football.
Four FBS teams lost to FCS schools. There were seven top-25 teams that lost, including four in the top 15. The ACC and the Pac 12 combined to go 13-13 over the weekend. The Big 12 went 9-1 in the ugliest way possible. Big Ten football looked like, well, Big Ten football. Then there was the SEC going 12-2 and looking the most complete out of every conference. Per usual.
It wasn’t the most impressive showing, by no means. The SEC West has some serious figuring out to do. However, the product that the SEC put on the field (with the exception of LSU and Vanderbilt) was better coached and better prepared than the majority of college football.
Here are my SEC power rankings after week one. Keep in mind this is not ranking the teams from best to worst, this is ranking essentially how each team’s performance looked.
