If the best pass rushers reside in the SEC West, the SEC’s best running backs, as a group, might be in the East. There might not be a lot of reasons to watch the Vanderbilt-Kentucky game in two weeks, but there’s a good chance it’ll feature the league’s top two running backs.

While Week 4 was not good for many pass defenses, several quarterbacks and running backs had big weeks.

Here’s this week’s grade of overrated, underrated, properly rated around the SEC:

Overrated

Arkansas pass defense: The addition of former Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads paid early dividends as Arkansas seldom gave up big plays in the passing game before Saturday. TCU hit some big plays, but overall, Arkansas had previously given up just three plays of more than 30 yards. That changed, of course, when Texas A&M hit a 92-yarder to Josh Reynolds, and a 47-yarder to Rick Seals-Jones. The 225 passing yards given up dropped the Razorbacks to seventh in the SEC in pass defense.

Quincy Wilson’s swagger: The trash-talking Florida cornerback saw the Gators’ 21-3 halftime lead evaporate faster than the logic behind a duck pulling a truck. He did have an interception in the loss at Tennessee, but the Volunteers still piled up 319 passing yards and four TDs.

Underrated

Armani Watts: The Aggies’ strong safety might not have been the best-known safety in the SEC West before the Arkansas game, but he did plenty to change that. Watts had nine tackles, 2.5 for a loss and a recovered fumble. His strip of Rawleigh Williams midway through the second quarter near the goal line was a game changer.

Trevor Knight’s rushing ability: At Oklahoma, Knight had 3,424 passing yards, but just 853 rushing yards. But against Arkansas, he had 157 yards and two TDs on just 10 carries. He had just 151 rushing yards entering Saturday on 28 carries. While his passing has been a bit inaccurate to start the season, his rushing ability adds another wrinkle to the already high-powered A&M offense.

Arden Key’s promise: The LSU’s defensive end had five sacks last year, but raised some eyebrows in the preseason when he proclaimed a goal of 20 sacks. But so far, he’s on pace to get close to that after another 1.5 sacks against Auburn. With 6.5 sacks to lead the SEC, Key is closing in on becoming the fourth player in LSU history with 10 sacks in a season, and the first since Gabe Northern in 1994.

Properly rated

Chad Kelly: The Ole Miss quarterback kept pace with Drew Lock among the top passers in the league. Kelly had his most efficient outing of the season, though he’s had two other games with more yards. Though Georgia’s defense has flaws, 18-for-24 for 282 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions, was better than solid.

Stanley Boom Williams: The Kentucky running back, when healthy, is among the best backs around, and he did it again against Gamecocks with 123 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries, including a 43-yard scamper. That moved him to second in the SEC with 464 rushing yards, and an 8.0 yards-per-carry average.

Ralph Webb: Against an above-average run defense on the road, the Vanderbilt running back still collected three TDs and 95 yards after a slow start when he didn’t get a carry on the first series, and had 18 yards by the end of the first quarter. He had 37 yards by halftime in the overtime win at Western Kentucky, and leads the SEC with 472 rushing yards. How much does Vanderbilt trust Webb? It gave him the ball on a score-or-lose play to force overtime. He scored.
