Another team on bye in this list, but considering the struggles offensively, a much needed one for the Volunteers. The Vols still are a talented squad, but they appear to be a tier below the true contenders for the conference. Knock off a 1-loss Kentucky this weekend and the narrative changes quite dramatically for Heupel's squad.

placid_salad 21 LW: #22 Little movement during a bye week after a close loss to now #41 South Carolina, should shuffle more up or down next week after a matchup with #29 Kentucky. A 7-point win over #100 Arkansas hurts.

ResearchFlaky5912 14 I flip Tennessee and Ole Miss after the latter's impressive game against Auburn. Tennessee did not have so easy a time. Plus, Louisville (unranked) and Missouri (#18) both move up, strengthening Ole Miss's resume.

Aggravating-Funny569 15 A win over Alabama is good. Need to get more of those kinds of wins, though.
AoA_nB1 15 Like the Vols, winning out would probably lead to a discussion for the #11 seed.
