10. Jalen Milroe (Alabama)

Previous Ranking: 10

Milroe and Alabama are our first of four SEC football teams that were on a bye week this past week in our Power Rankings. On the year, Milroe still has a 64.7% completion percentage (99/153 passing), 1,617 passing yards, 142 rushing yards, 18 total TD’s (13 passing, 5 rushing), and 5 INT’s

In arguably the biggest game of the week, Alabama will look for revenge from last season as they host Jayden Daniels and LSU at 7:45 pm Eastern.

9. Devin Leary (Kentucky)

Previous Ranking: 9

Kentucky fans finally got a glimpse of the Devin Leary that they knew he had the potential be when they brought him in out of the transfer portal. Even in a losing effort, Leary was very good. He was 28/39 for 372 passing yards, 21 rushing yards, 2 passing TD’s, and 0 INT’s.

For the season, Leary now has a 57.3% completion percentage (134/234 passing), 1,749 passing yards, 17 total TD’s (16 passing, 1 rushing), and 7 INT’s. Leary and Kentucky will try to keep their positive offensive momentum going on Saturday when they travel to take on Mississippi State at 7:30 pm Eastern.
