Rivalry week may have brought us a lot of intense and exciting matchups, but it didn’t bring us more than one really solid performance.

Minutes before the Egg Bowl kicked off in Starkville, the Rebels found out No. 2 Alabama had already clinched the SEC West, but they didn’t let that disappointing news keep them from an impressive performance against Mississippi State.

Here are the updated Top 10 team performances of 2015:

10. OLE MISS 38, MISSISSIPPI STATE 27

Date: Nov. 28
Star Player: QB Chad Kelly
Key Stat: Ole Miss sacked Bulldogs QB Dak Prescott 6 times
Why: The Rebels left the gate sprinting, scoring 21 points in the first quarter alone. Kelly passed 21 of 30 for 236 yards and 2 TDs, and he ran another 74 yards for a third touchdown. Two Bulldogs offensive tackles were out with injuries, and the line just couldn’t stop the Landsharks from reaching Prescott. This was the first time Ole Miss has won in Starkville since former QB Eli Manning led them to a victory in 2003.

9. ARKANSAS 53, NO. 18 OLE MISS 52 IN OT

Date: Nov. 7
Star Player: QB Brandon Allen
Key Stat: Allen threw for 442 yards and 6 TDs
Why: Allen had the game of his career, going 33 for 45 for 442 yards and 6 TDs, and he played with composure, slowing down the game to the pace he wanted. The Rebels and the Razorbacks traded scores for the entire game, right up until the Hogs’ possession in OT when they went for two after the touchdown. By the way, that touchdown was scored a few plays after Arkansas went for fourth-and-25 and got it with a blind lateral pass TE Hunter Henry tossed over his shoulder. The Arkansas win pretty much took Ole Miss out of the SEC West title picture.

8. NO. 13 ALABAMA 38, NO. 8 GEORGIA 10

Date: Oct. 3
Star Player: WR Calvin Ridley
Key Stat: Alabama’s 21-point lead at halftime
Why: Ridley hauled in 120 receiving yards, QB Jake Coker continued to show why he is Alabama’s starting quarterback and the Crimson Tide spanked Georgia in Athens despite not being favored by many odds makers. The defense made Georgia QB Greyson Lambert look terrible before he was yanked for his backup. Alabama owned this game and showed it is still SEC royalty.

7. No. 2 ALABAMA 31, NO. 17 MISSISSIPPI STATE 6

Date: Nov. 14
Star Player: CB Cyrus Jones
Key Stat: The Tide defense amassed 12 sacks on QB Dak Prescott
Why: Alabama made big plays at every position. Mississippi State had allowed only 13 sacks all season, but the Alabama defensive line had their way with the Bulldogs, sacking Prescott 12 times, according to ESPN (nine times according to CBS). Special teams shined, too, with Jones returning a punt 69 yards for the first Tide touchdown. Jones’ explosive touchdown got the Tide rolling, and it never gave the Bulldogs another chance. RB Derrick Henry also had a big night, accumulating 204 yards on 22 carries. Coming off a big win against LSU, Alabama proved it was still focused.

6. TEXAS A&M 38, NO. 15 ARIZONA STATE 17

Date: Sept. 5
Star Player: DE Myles Garrett
Key Stat: The Aggies had14 tackles for loss
Why: There’s just something about the Aggies and early-season games against ranked foes. A year after winning a big game at South Carolina, a new-look Texas A&M held Arizona State QB Mike Bercovici to just 199 yards and 1 TD. Texas A&M rotated QBs Kyle Allen (198 passing yards) and Kyler Murray (49 passing yards, 69 rushing) throughout the game, making the team’s convincing win all the more impressive.

5. ARKANSAS 31, NO. 9 LSU 14

Date: Nov. 14
Star Player: RB Alex Collins
Key Stat: LSU RB Leonard Fournette was held to 92 rushing yards
Why: For the second week in a row, the mighty Fournette was suffocated while the opposing team’s running back exploded. Collins had 16 carries for 141 yards and 2 TDs. Before the game, there was much debate about whether or not LSU could recover from the disappointing loss in Tuscaloosa just a week earlier, and it seems the Tigers just couldn’t get over the hump. Though Arkansas did present quite a formidable hump. The Razorbacks offense exploded, amassing 440 total yards. And unlike some of the Hogs’ most recent games, this one did not need any extra time to decide the winner.

4. NO. 10 ALABAMA 41, NO. 9 TEXAS A&M 23

Date: Oct. 17
Star Player: DB Minkah Fitzpatrick
Key Stat: Alabama returned 3 INTs for TDs
Why: The Crimson Tide entered a raucous Kyle Field with a mission to stop undefeated Texas A&M’s high-powered offense. They did just that, making Aggies QB Kyle Allen look terrible, forcing 3 INTs while limiting his completion rate to just 50 percent. Alabama RB Derrick Henry (236 rushing yards) continued to establish himself in the national awards picture, QB Jake Coker managed the game well, and perhaps most importantly, the Tide offensive line was able to fend off Aggies DE Myles Garrett and the Texas A&M pass rush.

3. NO. 15 OLE MISS 43, NO. 2 ALABAMA 37

Date: Sept. 19
Star Player: QB Chad Kelly
Key Stat: Ole Miss had 2 touchdown receptions of 60-plus yards
Why: This win was one for the ages. Ole Miss hadn’t won in Tuscaloosa since 1988 and hadn’t beaten Alabama in consecutive years in the program’s history. Behind Kelly’s 341 passing yards and WR Quincy Adeboyejo’s miracle 66-yard deflection touchdown, the Rebels did enough to upset the Crimson Tide in a back-and-forth contest. The Ole Miss victory snapped Alabama’s FBS-long 17-game home winning streak.

2. NO. 25 FLORIDA 38, NO. 3 OLE MISS 10

Date: Oct. 3
Star Player: QB Will Grier
Key Stat: Grier threw 4 TDs in the first half
Why: Grier supposedly had the flu entering Florida’s eventual upset of the Rebels, but he sure didn’t play like it. He was close to perfect (24 for 29, 271 yards) while cutting up the Ole Miss defense. The Florida offensive line did a great job of handling the Ole Miss defensive front, and the Gators defense forced 4 turnovers in The Swamp. This game was even more lopsided than the score indicated, and Florida made its case as a legitimate SEC contender.

1. NO. 4 ALABAMA 30, NO. 2 LSU 16

Date: Nov. 7
Star Player: RB Derrick Henry
Key Stat: Alabama held LSU RB Leonard Fournette to 31 yards
Why: The Crimson Tide asserted its SEC West dominance in this game, and it proved the College Football Playoff Committee was right to put them in the Top 4 of the initial poll. Henry had 38 carries for 210 yards and 3 TDs, QB Jake Coker completed his first home game without an interception, and PK Adam Griffith regained his confidence after hitting a 55-yard field goal just before halftime. The Tide defense held the Tigers to 182 total yards, and Tigers QB Brandon Harris threw his first pick of the season. This win gave Alabama the lead in the division.
