Week 11 SEC conference power rankings
7-1 (4-1 SEC). . Week 10 Result: 28-18 win vs. Kentucky. . 534. . . 3. . Tennessee
Last week: 4 (+1)
Tennessee continues to rely on winning battles in the trenches for the defensive front seven and the ground game with star running back Dylan Sampson to win games in the SEC. Kentucky tested Tennessee for about two and a half quarters in Knoxville in Week 10, but the Vols rode two Sampson rushing touchdowns to a double-digit win over the Wildcats.
The Vols and head coach Josh Heupel have what should be a very easily winnable game this week in Week 11 against Mississippi State at home.

Texas maintains the No. 2 spot in this week's SEC power rankings after the bye week. This spot got even more sured up for the Longhorns after the double-digit upset loss by Texas A&M on the road to South Carolina last weekend.
Quinn Ewers and the Longhorns face another SEC team with injuries at the quarterback position against the Gators in Week 11 in Austin.
Week 10 Result: 34-20 win vs. Florida. . . . . Georgia. . 7-1 (5-1 SEC). 1. 527

Despite another off week for quarterback Carson Beck, Georgia came back from a multi-possession first-half deficit to defeat rival Georgia in the Cocktail Party in Jacksonville. Had it not been for Lagway leaving the game due to a lower-body injury in the second quarter, Georgia was very much in danger of losing that game to the Gators last weekend.
Beck threw three interceptions in a game for the third time this season against Florida.
Georgia likely needs a much cleaner game, especially from Beck at the quarterback position, to defeat Ole Miss on the road in Week 11.
