How The SEC Looks After Five Weeks – Team by Team

By: Larry Burton

Overall the SEC appears a much better conference top to bottom than in previous years. While the win/loss categories may not show a significant difference, the play on the field has.

It would be safe to say that the SEC has regained much of it’s lost luster from recent seasons when it was say two or three good teams and others.

Case in point is Vanderbilt, who has a 3-2 record after five weeks, but came within five points of upsetting number 8 Notre Dame. So while the record may not show it, their play has been gritty and tough.
