Emphasizing the prediction part in ‘predictor’, here’s how we project each team’s chances to win the league title heading into the fifth weekend:

LSU (17 percent chance)

More Leonard Fournette, please. The Tigers will cruise to another win this week when they wear their purple jerseys for the first time this season against Eastern Michigan. The schedule gets tougher from there.

GEORGIA (17 percent chance)

We’ll know just how good Mark Richt’s team is late Saturday after the final buzzer has sounded against the Crimson Tide, who’s using the nationally-ranked showdown to get back in the SEC title picture with a win. The Bulldogs will likely jump into the Top 5 by defending their home turf.

OLE MISS (15 percent chance)

Chad Kelly overcame two interceptions against Vanderbilt to deliver the dagger scoring march midway through the fourth quarter of last week’s victory, which set up a highly-anticipated trip to The Swamp for the third-ranked Rebels. This team’s already proved it can go into a hostile environment and win, and the Gators don’t have as many weapons as Alabama.

TEXAS A&M (10 percent chance)

Christian Kirk might be college football’s breakout player of the year through the first month of the season, a great sign for the unbeaten Aggies as they host Mississippi State (3-1) at Kyle Field on Saturday. Kevin Sumlin’s 0-5 against ranked SEC teams at home during his tenure.

ALABAMA (10 percent chance)

Judging by the rest of the league schedule, we’re looking at Saturday’s game at Georgia as a must-win for Nick Saban’s team as far as Western Division title and College Football Playoff aspirations are concerned. It’s the first time Alabama’s been considered the betting underdog (+1.5 by most oddsmakers) since 2009.

FLORIDA (10 percent chance)

The Gators are 4-0. I repeat, Jim McElwain’s inexperienced and fringe bowl-eligible football team has won its first four games. Most importantly, Florida’s 2-0 in the SEC with a chance to gain the upper hand in the East with a win over Ole Miss couple with a Georgia loss to Alabama.

MISSISSIPPI STATE (8 percent chance)

The Bulldogs have improved thus far as the season’s progressed, winning three straight including last week’s victory at Auburn since losing by two points in the opener to LSU.

KENTUCKY (8 percent chance)

The win over Mizzou was a must for a Wildcats squad intending on reaching the postseason this fall. If Kentucky can avoid the injury bug and beat Auburn at home in a couple weeks, there’s no reason why this team couldn’t challenge for a second or third-place finish in the East.

TENNESSEE (2 percent chance)

All that momentum? Gone. The fan base’s love affair with Butch Jones? Fading. The Vols face a must-win this weekend against Arkansas after late-game collapse twice over the last three games.

MIZZOU (2 percent chance)

Now that Maty Mauk’s suspended, a struggling offense is turned over to true freshman Drew Lock, who many fans are excited to see play — for four quarters. He’s shown flashes of potential early this season and has a chance to win the job for good with strong outings during Mauk’s absence.

ARKANSAS (1 percent chance)

When will the Razorbacks win a close game? They haven’t under Bret Bielema and you can tell it’s beginning to wear on the coach who wears his emotions on his sleeve. Like Tennessee, Saturday’s game in Knoxville is a must-win.

AUBURN (0 percent chance)

Never thought I would be saying this on Oct. 1, but the Tigers are finished. I promise to apologize if Auburn catches lightning in a bottle with Sean White at quarterback and Will Muschamp’s defense magically improves overnight. The remaining schedule is too treacherous for a team that’s already 0-2 in league play.

SOUTH CAROLINA (0 percent chance)

The Gamecocks still have bowl hopes and Saturday’s matchup at Mizzou will go a long way in determining that placement, but upcoming contests against LSU and Texas A&M no longer look like winnable games considering how much the offense struggled in September. Lorenzo Nunez is a much-needed spark, however.

VANDERBILT (0 percent chance)

The Commodores are gunning for only their third win over an FBS opponent since Derek Mason’s arrival at Middle Tennessee this weekend. Here’s to hoping Vanderbilt comes through for the SEC.
