3) LSU Tigers (6-2)
The LSU Tigers have shown flashes all season long of being a dominant team under Brian Kelly. LSU’s offense has been lights out at times, but the team’s defense has struggled immensely at times, especially against mobile quarterbacks. Nonetheless, LSU is still a top team in the nation.

4) Ole Miss Rebels (7-2)
Ole Miss entered the season with high expectations after a huge offseason, but an early loss to Kentucky dampened their high hopes. However, Ole Miss bounced back and looked to find their rhythm again before falling to LSU a couple of weeks back. With a big test against Georgia looming, the Rebels could make a statement with a win.
