Previous rank: 14

Last week: 68-21 WIN vs. Idaho

This week: @ UCONN

Missouri rolled through Idaho last Saturday to gain some confidence for now. The Tigers must get a win against UCONN this weekend, because there may not be a win in the SEC column this year.

Previous rank: 13

Last week: BYE

This week: @ South Carolina

The Commodores have used their rest week prepping to pull off an upset at South Carolina this weekend. They have gone through the nasty part of their schedule, and should be able to pick up a couple more wins.

Previous rank: 12

Last week: 52-20 LOSS vs. Auburn

This week: @ Ole Miss

It’s getting uglier by the week for the Razorbacks. Bret Bielema is pretty much a done deal as the head coach, unless a miracle finish is awaiting Arkansas. The upcoming game against Ole Miss is one of the few winnable games remaining.

Previous rank: 11

Last week: 45-7 LOSS @ Alabama

This week: @ Kentucky

Amongst all the ugly losses, there is hope arising for Volunteer fans. Rumors on John Gruden coaching for Tennessee are swirling, and that would probably be a major victory in the end for Tennessee. But for now, the Volunteers are suffering and must win against Kentucky.

Previous rank: 10

Last week: 40-24 LOSS vs. LSU

This week: vs. Arkansas

Things were starting to look good for the Rebels, and then they lost quarterback Shea Patterson for the season. Still, this weekend’s game against Arkansas is a must-win if Ole Miss wants to keep their name out of the last place conversation.
