This week the calendar turns to November, bringing new urgency to conference and playoff races and putting Week 10's biggest games under an intense spotlight. The results of Week 9 have turned Georgia-Kentucky and West Virginia–Texas into pivotal battles for spots in the SEC and Big 12 title games: Next Saturday’s winner in Lexington will represent the SEC East in Atlanta, while the loser between the Longhorns and Mountaineers will fall from the Big 12’s three-way tie for first place that both teams share with Oklahoma. For now, let’s celebrate Mark Stoops’s death-defying run to 7–1 and Will Grier’s recovery from two nightmarish starts and see what the postseason looks like if Kentucky and West Virginia keep themselves steered toward 10 wins or more this season.
