Texas Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian looked at the SEC football standings after last week’s games and made a prediction.
“A lot of people are going to eat each other, here,” he said Monday.

Last week, Oklahoma and Missouri took their first losses at the hands of Texas and Alabama. That leaves only two unbeaten teams left in the league. One of them, Ole Miss, faces arguably its toughest test of the season this week at Georgia. The other, Texas A&M, will play four of its five remaining conference games on the road.

Ten of the league’s 16 teams are ranked. Which of them will emerge from that clump and stake a claim as the conference’s best as we begin the second half of the regular season?

Sort through the fog with our weekly power rankings:
1. Texas A&M
It’s time for the Aggies to test their fortitude. After cruising to three home SEC wins to begin conference play, Mike Elko’s team goes on the road for three straight, beginning this week at Arkansas. And Texas A&M will play that stretch without star running back Le’Veon Moss, who will miss “significant” time with an ankle injury. Is this the start of the annual Aggies’ faceplant, or can Elko erase that perception of his program?
Last week: No. 1, beat Florida 34-17

2. Alabama
Remember the first week of September, when Kalen DeBoer’s job status came into question following a season-opening loss to Florida State? Now he’s riding a five-game winning stretch that includes three consecutive victories over ranked teams. Coaching stocks can skyrocket or crater over the span of a couple weeks — just ask James Franklin.

Last week: No. 3, beat Missouri 27-24
This week: vs. Tennessee
3. Ole Miss
Apathy reigned in Oxford, Miss., over the weekend. Ole Miss students didn’t show up, and, for most of their game against Washington State, neither did the Rebels. But Ole Miss survived. This week, it has a chance to achieve something it hasn’t yet managed under Lane Kiffin: beat a ranked SEC team on the road.

Last week: No. 2, beat Washington State 24-21
4. Georgia
The Bulldogs didn’t play well at Auburn last week, but they played clean. Kirby Smart’s team didn’t turn the ball over and it stood aside while Auburn committed 103 yards worth of penalties. Georgia is not the planet-devouring steamroller it once was, but it remains a program that knows how to win, even if its coach has to steal a timeout to make that happen.

Last week: No. 5, beat Auburn 20-10
This week: vs. Ole Miss
5. Tennessee
Speaking of winning ugly, Tennessee’s quest to find out just how poorly it can play defense in a winning effort continued last week when it gave up 31 points at home to Arkansas and nearly threw away a 17-point fourth-quarter lead. The Vols have the top-scoring offense in the country, but they’re giving up nearly 32 points per game to FBS opposition.

Last week: No. 6, beat Arkansas 34-31
6. LSU
A 20-point effort against South Carolina won’t make any headlines, but LSU’s beleaguered offense moved the ball a bit better this week, undoing itself with three turnovers and bad red-zone play. It’s too late for QB Garrett Nussmeier to embark on the Heisman Trophy run many expect from him, but it’s not too late for him to lead the Tigers to the top of the SEC if he can clean up the giveaways.

Last week: No. 7, beat South Carolina 20-10
This week: at Vanderbilt
7. Texas
A resounding Red River Rivalry triumph for the Longhorns yielded two important conclusions. Texas’ uncharacteristic defensive problems two weeks ago against Florida were an anomaly, and Arch Manning is capable of playing at the level Texas needs in order to win big games. This season looks entirely salvageable for Steve Sarkisian’s crew, especially with a friendly schedule coming up.

8. Vanderbilt
How will the Commodores respond to having their illusion of invincibility smashed by Alabama two weeks ago? Clark Lea’s team is no doubt much more talented than the Vanderbilt teams that spent decades stinking up the league, but their outward confidence sits at the core of their team identity. Is it still intact? We’ll find out against LSU.

Last week: No. 8, did not play
9. Oklahoma
After its offense put together a grade school style showing against Texas, it’s time to question what looked like progress for OU on that side of the ball. In three games against Power Four foes, the Sooners are averaging 18 points. Their defense is elite, but let’s see the Sooners move the ball against a defense with a pulse before saving them a space in the SEC’s top third.

Last week: No. 4, lost to Texas 23-6
This week: at South Carolina
10. Missouri
Against Alabama, the Tigers didn’t get the quarterback performance they needed from Beau Pribula, who threw two interceptions and averaged 4 yards per attempt. The Crimson Tide clamped down on the SEC’s leading rusher, Ahmad Hardy, too. Still, Mizzou missed out on a program-changing win by just three points. It will have more opportunities later this year, and it will need more from its stars.

Last week: No. 9, lost to Alabama 27-24
11. Mississippi State
At 4-2, the Bulldogs have already doubled their 2024 win total. Can they parlay their progress into their first bowl game since 2022? They’ve got four ranked opponents among the six remaining games on their schedule. One of the two reprieves comes this week, when Mississippi State heads to Florida.

Last week: No. 12, did not play
12. Florida
A loss at Texas A&M moved Billy Napier to 0-10 on the road against ranked teams since he took the job at Florida in 2022. At 2-4, the College Football Playoff is out of the question, and Napier might have the warmest seat of any coach in the country.

Last week: No. 10, lost to Texas A&M 34-17
This week: vs. Mississippi State
13. South Carolina
Gamecocks coach Shane Beamer fired an assistant midseason this week for the first time in his tenure, sending offensive line coach Lonnie Teasley on his way. That’s a symptom of unfulfilled expectations. South Carolina began the season 13th in the AP Poll. Now the Gamecocks are back to SEC bottom feeding with a 1-3 league record.

14. Auburn
The Jackson Arnold experiment looks like a failure in Auburn, and Hugh Freeze might soon be branded with the same label. Arnold managed just 4.4 yards per attempt in last week’s loss to Georgia. Freeze is 14-17 in three seasons coaching the Tigers, with just five SEC wins to his name. Patience on the Plains is running thin.

Last week: No. 14, lost to Georgia 20-10
15. Arkansas
This is the section of the power rankings where moral victories hold value. The Razorbacks didn’t beat Tennessee last week, but they gave them a scare two weeks after their coach was fired. Can interim coach Bobby Petrino make Arkansas dangerous down the stretch? He has one of the league’s most dynamic quarterbacks in Taylen Green, after all.

16. Kentucky
Bad news, Kentucky fans. No more breaks. The Wildcats took their second bye week last week, giving them two weeks to prepare for a big home game against Texas. Normally that presents an advantage. But Mark Stoops and the Wildcats are 1-4 in their last five games coming off byes, and that victory came against an FCS team.
