The Southeastern Conference released its players of the week following Week 9 action that caused some notable changes in the rankings as Tennessee moved up to No. 2 ahead of its upcoming game against No. 1 Georgia.

There were several standouts across the board and many were recognized by the conference for their efforts this past week. Here’s a look into who garnered recognition:

  • Co-Offensive Player of The Week: TE Brock Bowers, Georgia
  • Co-Offensive Player of The Week: RB Raheim Sanders, Arkansas
  • Defensive Player of The Week: S Chris Smith, Georgia
  • Freshman Player of The Week: RB Quinshon Judkins, Ole Miss
  • Co-Offensive Lineman of The Week: OL Nick Broeker, Ole Miss
  • Co-Offensive Lineman of The Week: OL Darnell Wright, Tennessee
  • Defensive Lineman of The Week: DL Isaiah McGuire, Missouri
  • Special Teams Player of The Week: P Reid Bauer, Arkansas

Bowers was among those who really turned heads on Saturday, reeling in 5 catches for 154 yards with 1 touchdown in the 42-20 win over the Florida Gators. He’ll continue to be one to watch in the much-anticipated matchup between Georgia and Tennessee that could very well determine the top seed in the College Football Playoff on Saturday.
