2023 Week 9 AP Poll Top 25: Every SEC team’s highest, lowest spot on ballot
Another week of SEC play is in the books, even though we are in the midst of bye week season with several teams not playing each week. However, there are still 6 SEC teams featured in the top 25 of the AP Poll with two others among the group receiving votes (they were featured on at least one ballot, but did not pick up enough points to make it in the top 25).
This list shows every team’s actual ranking in this week’s poll, their ranking from last week’s poll, plus their highest and lowest on any given voter’s ballot.
