Georgia has passed every test this year in their bid for a three peat! At this point Georgia is in prime position to win the SEC East, and in the SEC West Alabama is in control, but Ole Miss is right behind them.
The Top 5 SEC teams stay the same, but move around a little bit. Missouri had a chance to move into the SEC Top 5, but a loss to Georgia will keep them out another week.

NOTABLE Week 11 GAMES
The season just continues to provide us with games to look forward to. There are lots of good games on the schedule for Week 11, and some of the most exciting games for Week 11 are listed below:
- #3 Michigan @ #11 Penn State – This game will go a long way in determining the Big Ten Champion!
- #18 Utah @ #5 Washington – This may be the toughest test left on Washington’s schedule in their march toward the Pac-12 Championship!
- #17 Tennessee @ #12 Missouri – Not only is this a ranked game for 2nd place in the SEC East, with a win Tennessee could have a shot at the SEC East crown!
- #10 Ole Miss @ #2 Georgia– We find out if Ole Miss is for real this week. They take on a tough Georgia team that is without Brock Bowers, but is still undefeated.
- #20 USC @ #6 Oregon – If Oregon hopes for a rematch with Washington in the Pac-12 Championship, then they have to get past a talented and motivated USC team.
Rivalry Sports Lock Pick of the Week – Oklahoma State over UCF 27 – 20
Rivalry Sports Underdog Pick of the Week – #25 Tennessee over # 12 Missouri
