LAST WEEKEND
LSU obliterated Utah State in an effort to remind the world of College Football that they're really good even when most of the SEC isn't playing. Florida pulled out an impressive, ugly win over Auburn and Georgia just absolutely smited Tennessee.
THREE SUPERSTARS
Joe Burrow, quarterback of LSU; Put another five touchdowns up through the air and rushed for another last weekend as he continues his campaign for Heisman consideration.
The entire defense of Florida: Auburn had been averaging over 30 points a game coming to the swamp and then they turned around and held them scoreless in the second half and to only 13 points for the whole game.
John Rhys Plumlee, running back of Ole Miss, on 22 carries he nailed 165 yards and a touchdown up on the board. Give this kid the rock.
WHAT TO WATCH THIS WEEKEND
This is an obviously huge weekend in college football with great games all over the schedule but two of them happen to come right from the SEC. Texas A&M is hosting Alabama and A&M can't lose another game this season. Florida travels to LSU hot off their win over Auburn and they have a shot at a conference championship lined up directly in their sights with a win here, but LSU sees the same thing in their future.
PLAYERS TO WATCH THIS WEEKEND
Tua Tagovailoa, quarterback of Alabama, this is where Tua needs to sharpen up and start gearing up for this year's playoff run. If Alabama is going to win a National Championship, these are the level of games they'll need to be great in to win.
Joe Burrow, quarterback of LSU, this is an awesome game and it's going to be him or Florida's defense that comes out on top. Who wants it more?
D'Andre Swift, running back of Georgia, for the second week in a row the table is set for this guy to run through a lesser opponent. Yards, yards and touchdowns, keep an eye on the scoreboard for this game.
