4. Ole Miss Rebels

Previous Ranking: 8

Undoubtedly the biggest riser of the week in SEC Football was Ole Miss, as the Rebels were able to upset Kentucky last Saturday in a Top 25 matchup to remain undefeated at 5-0. Defeating the Wildcats 22-19, Ole Miss was able to force a Kentucky fumble late in order to seal the win, a game in which the Rebels held a 19-6 lead at one point in the second quarter.

The Rebels will now travel in week six to Vanderbilt for a matchup with the Commodores, a game in which Ole Miss will likely be a big favorite. Ole Miss should win that game by at-least one-to-two touchdowns at the least.

3. Tennessee Volunteers

Previous Ranking: 4

Tennessee rose a spot coming off their bye week, and now resumes SEC Football play Saturday afternoon with a trip to Baton Rouge where LSU awaits. This could potentially be the Volunteers toughest test yet this season, with Tennessee likely having to play one of their best games yet in order to leave Death Valley remaining undefeated.
