SEC Week 8 Wrap Up


It was another BIG week in the SEC, some teams pulled ahead, while others dug a hole that might be to large to overcome for the remainder of the season. The MOST impressive team this week was the Kentucky Wildcats. Kentucky trailed by 13 points with four minutes left in the game and overcame the deficit with OFFENSIVE fire power. IF the Wildcats can take the offensive rhythm from late in the game verse Arkansas and carry it over, this could be a SCARY team to face down the stretch....The MOST DISAPPOINTING performance was the SEC West overall. #2 Alabama looked unimpressive against Ole Miss as the nearly blew a 14 point lead in the game...this teams struggles show that the HIGH ranking is weining on them and will soon result in a LETDOWN. LSU won as well, BUT could NOT muster any offense in the vicortory, the defense can only take a team so far and these guys look suspect to more losses down the stretch. And poor, poor Arkansas...a 13 pont lead and couldn't seal the deal with Kentucky...With a 3-4 record, the hole dug will be hard to overcome in the remainder of the season.
