Rumors of the SEC’s demise may have been greatly exaggerated. After a poor start for the conference (for past SEC standards) in week one, SEC Football managed to bounce back by winning all of their out of conferences games for the week.

Arkansas and Tennessee in particular boasted strong wins over non-conference opponents after shaky week one wins. Not only did week two represent a resurgence for SEC Football, but it also marked a comeback for my predictions record. After a putrid and unacceptable week one performance, I managed to bounce back with an 8-4 record against the spread and a 11-1 record straight up.

Now things will get a little trickier as we enter a week that features our first great conference match-ups. Can Alabama finally find redemption against Ole Miss? Is Texas A&M ready to make a run for the SEC West with a road win over Auburn? Can I boost my predictions record out of the deep, dark pit of mediocrity after a bounce back in week two? I can’t wait to find out.

Next: Alabama at Ole Miss
