Poll Patrol


Kentucky had a so-so week with the loss to Alabama but rebounded nicely to win at South Carolina.  This week sees a quick rematch with Georgia as Kentucky looks to avenge their first loss of the SEC season on Saturday.  This week Kentucky is 14th in the AP and 16th in the Coaches Poll.  Last weeks numbers are in parentheses.

Team                    RPI             Pomeroy           Projected Record
                                                                           (Total and SEC)

Florida                  19 (16)              33 (37)               21-9         10-6
Georgia                 42 (41)             51 (59)               20-10         9-7
Tennessee           17 (25)             52 (51)               18-13         8-8
South Carolina      81 (94)            76 (80)                17-12        8-8

Alabama                136 (173)          50 (58)              19-11       11-5
Arkansas               107 (106)          114 (83)             18-12        7-9
Mississippi             73 (88)             73 (81)               20-11         8-8
LSU                       184 (175)          187 (151)           13-18       5-11
Miss St                  176 (195)          171 (147)           13-17        5-11
Auburn                   307 (315)          264 (248)            8-22        1-15

The big mover this week was Alabama as they move to 136 in the RPI and 50 in Pomeroy's ranking.  It's going to take at least 12 wins, but their schedule sets them up to be 10-3 going into their last 3 games. 
Locks: Kentucky, Vanderbilt, Florida, Tennessee, Georgia
