Here we give our SEC Football power rankings after eight weeks of the season. Auburn football remains among the top three after a big win against Arkansas.

We are about halfway through the SEC football schedule with just about everyone having four SEC football games under their belt.

We have a much clearer pitcher of how every team stacks up now, and because of that there isn’t much shake-up in our power rankings. That, and the fact that I’ve pretty much been spot on for weeks now.

Alabama remains at the top after a big win at home over Texas A&M, but the Aggies hung around and made it a game in the second half for a minute.

Auburn absolutely dominated Arkansas at home showing they deserve to be in the conversation for the SEC Football Championship.

LSU did the same by taking care of an Ole Miss team that seems to be giving up – hopefully that’s the case this weekend.

In an exciting game that nobody saw, Kentucky came away with a much needed win over Mississippi State to keep their bowl chances alive.

In out-of-conference games, South Carolina hung on to beat UMASS, and Vanderbilt took care of Tennessee State, but Missouri embarrassed the conference with a loss to Middle Tennessee.

This week gives us four SEC matchups, but none include two ranked teams, which opens the door for some upsets.

Let’s see where everyone sits going into week nine.
