.RJ Youthful.FOX Sports National University Football Analyst.In the first season of the 16-team SEC, the organization has revealed to be much more complicated than our experts thought it could be. It's not only that Alabama dismayed Georgia back in Full week 5 to accomplish the No. 1 rank. It is actually that Vanderbilt dismayed then-No. 1-ranked Alabama. It's that the second best staff in the SEC-- certainly not the best staff in the Big Ten, Big 12 or even ACC, who all possess unbeaten crews in their games-- acquired the nod as the No. 1 crew in the country.There have actually been actually 3 No. 1 teams in the very first 8 weeks of the period, and they call coming from the exact same event: S-E-C!

There is an argument for Georgia taking back the No. 1 position it pursued start the time, as well as it begins along with the Bulldogs going on the road to safeguard a double-digit victory over the Longhorns.

This while the Dawgs have actually not participated in a complete video game on offense, protection or even exclusive groups this season.But gaining should be actually recognized, and also losing have to be reprimanded. Thus, Oregon is actually the No. 1 staff listed here-- for now.
