The No. 1 ranked Alabama Crimson Tide held onto the top spot in the latest AP Poll after a bye week. However, other SEC teams were not as lucky to survive week 7, including previous No. 4 LSU and previous No. 5 Georgia.
LSU's road loss against Florida dropped it to No. 9, while Florida rose to No. 4.
Meanwhile, South Carolina's dominating win over Georgia forced the Bulldogs out of the top 10 and down to 14. South Carolina benefited from the win, climbing to No. 3.
While Alabama, South Carolina and Florida remain undefeated, the fourth undefeated team in the SEC is Mississippi State, who won a road game on Saturday over Kentucky. The win improved their ranking to No. 19 in the nation.
