1. Alabama 6-0 (3-0 Southeastern Conference)
Once again, the Crimson Tide looked ordinary following a big win, as they eked out victory over Kentucky despite 10 penalties and three turnovers.

2. LSU 4-0 (2-0)
Coming off a bye, the stifling defense of the Tigers will face its first true test when it takes on Tim Tebow and the Gators in the Swamp.

3. Florida 4-1 (2-1)
Tebow, along with a promise to fix the economy and cure the common cold, swore after the Ole Miss loss he wouldn't let something like that happen again to the Gators. LSU will have something to say about it.

4. Georgia 4-1 (1-1)
The Bulldogs will be hungry this weekend to not only put the beating by Alabama behind them but also to avenge blowout losses to Tennessee the last two seasons.

5. Vanderbilt 5-0 (3-0)
With each passing game, the East-leading Commodores shatter years of futility and bad memories. Now for a real milestone: A win over Mississippi State would make them bowl-eligible for the first time since 1982.

6. Kentucky 4-1 (0-1)
Make no mistake; the Wildcats are a legitimate team with an excellent and opportunistic defense. They gave the Tide more than a scare in Tuscaloosa.

7. South Carolina 4-2 (1-2)
A road win over Ole Miss, strong defense and solid play by embattled quarterback Chris Smelley have the Gamecocks feeling good after a lackluster start to the season.

8. Auburn 4-2 (2-2)
Tony Franklin may have an open rebellion on his hands if the Tigers don't put some more points on the board and soon. As running back Ben Tate said, "As an offense, to be truthful, we're awful."

9. Ole Miss 3-3 (1-2)
The schizophrenic Rebels, who upset Florida last week but blew an early lead over the weekend to South Carolina, keep shooting themselves in the foot. They have turned the ball over 12 times in their three losses.

10. Tennessee 2-3 (0-2)
All Phil Fulmer could muster about his new quarterback Nick Stephens was that "he didn't disappoint him" in a 13-9 squeaker over Northern Illinois. It's getting desperate in Knoxville.

11. Mississippi State 1-4 (0-2)
Walk-on quarterback Tyson Lee impressed enough people to likely earn the starting job against Vanderbilt for the Bulldogs, who put up a good fight against LSU before a weekend bye.

12. Arkansas 2-3 (0-2)
The Razorbacks allowed over 46 points a game during a brutal three-game stretch of their schedule that they simply weren't equipped to handle.
