ChBass 5 Kentucky sits atop the SEC and sits at the conference's highest point here, despite an offense and defense that don't crack the top 35. The win against LSU is appreciating every week, and the loss to Alabama hurts less and less.

Tornadohunter24 8 [7-1, 5-1 SEC] (+1) | SOR: #1 | Notable Results: L 17-45 vs #13 Alabama [6-2], W 35-34 (OT) @ HM South Carolina [5-3], W 35-34 (OT) vs #15 LSU [6-2], W 21-13 @ Oklahoma [4-4] |

The Wildcats were on bye this past weekend, and so nothing notably changed about their previous assessment - a team with great coaching and the offensive talent to go far if they can maintain their performance against their backloaded schedule. They do jump up a place despite their inaction, thanks in part to the winning ways of Beamerball and Kiffin's wild ride, but they're limited until they can add some additional ranked wins to their collection. However, I would be a fool to count out Stein's squad from their potential to earn not only a spot in Atlanta but a position to seriously challenge for a national title... just don't look at how they collapsed in the 4th quarter against Alabama. Tennessee this weekend will tell us a lot about how feasible those hopes are.
