College Football Week 12 Rankings - SEC Power Poll
by Mike Rose
After 11 weeks of play in the ncaa football betting season, several teams from the SEC have looked great for sports bettors. Find out how BetUS rates them against each other in this week's college football power rankings...
1: Alabama Crimson Tide (7-3 ATS, 10-0 SU) (LW: 1) If anyone expected a letdown for the Crimson Tide in their trip to Starkville, they were sorely mistaken. The Tide rolled to a very impressive 31-3 victory, and now just has one cupcake left before the Iron Bowl on Thanksgiving weekend. Regardless, a spot in the BCS should be sewn up even with losses to both the Tigers and Gators.
Up Next: Home vs. Tennessee-Chattanooga (OTB)
2: Mississippi Rebels (6-4 ATS, 7-3 SU) (LW: 4) Football bettors were all over the Rebs from the start of the week, and justifiably so! RB Dexter McCluster rolled off 325 yards of total offense on a very good Tennessee defense, marking the best victory for HC Houston Nutt since winning in the Swamp last season.
Up Next: Home vs. LSU (-3.5)
3: Tennessee Volunteers (6-4 ATS, 5-5 SU) (LW: 2) The Volunteers had better be careful, or they may not be able to go bowling in HC Lane Kiffin's first season calling the shots on Rocky Top. Tennessee was destroyed by Ole Miss in Oxford last week. A loss at home to the Commodores would be fatal in the final home game of the season.
Up Next: Home vs. Vanderbilt (-17)
4: Mississippi State Bulldogs (5-4 ATS, 4-6 SU) (LW: 3) It's going to take an unbelievable effort over these next two weeks to send the Bulldogs bowling. Still, considering that MSU gave LSU, Georgia Tech, Houston, and Florida all they could handle, HC Dan Mullen has nothing to be ashamed of even though his squad was demolished by the Tide on Saturday.
Up Next: Away @ Arkansas (+11)
5: Arkansas Razorbacks (5-4 ATS, 6-4 SU) (LW: 5) If there was any thought that the Razorbacks would be in for a letdown against the Trojans, those thoughts were dismissed in a hurry. QB Ryan Mallet threw for 405 yards and five TDs against the Men of Troy, earning the Hogs their third straight victory and a spot in a bowl game. That position could improve greatly with wins in these next two weeks.
Up Next: Home vs. Mississippi State (-11)
6: South Carolina Gamecocks (6-5 ATS, 6-5 SU) (LW: 6) South Carolina stuck stride for stride with the #1 team in the land for three full quarters, but a fluky interception really took the wind out of the Gamecocks' sails. The season has been a disappointment for HC Steve Spurrier and the gang, but it should still end in a bowl berth regardless of the outcome against Clemson in two weeks.
Up Next: Bye
And the rest…
7: Kentucky Wildcats (5-5 ATS, 6-4 SU) (LW: 10)
8: Florida Gators (4-5 ATS, 10-0 SU) (LW: 7)
9: Auburn Tigers (5-6 ATS, 7-4 SU) (LW: 8)
10: Vanderbilt Commodores (4-6 ATS, 2-9 SU) (LW: 9)
11: LSU Tigers (4-6 ATS, 8-2 SU) (LW: 11)
12: Georgia Bulldogs (3-7 ATS, 6-4 SU) (LW: 12)
