Published:
Three SEC teams were ranked in the latest Football Writers Association of America-National Football Foundation Super 16 poll, and they are the same teams that are widely ranked at the top among conference teams in other polls.
Undefeated Alabama and Georgia were ranked No. 1 and No. 8, while one-loss Auburn was ranked No. 14.
All three had strong showings on Saturday. Alabama handled Vanderbilt 59-0, Georgia beat Mississippi State, 31-3, and Auburn beat Missouri, 51-14.
Georgia was among the teams that made the biggest jump in the poll from last week, up four spots.
In somewhat of a surprise, there were three teams to receive first-place votes.
