6. Joe Milton III (Tennessee)

Previous Ranking: 6

Milton was efficient once again as Tennessee picked up a very important win in the East as they knocked off Kentucky 33-27. Milton ended up going 17/20 for 227 passing yards, 26 rushing yards, and 1 passing TD (no INT) in the win.

For the season, Milton now has a 64.6% completion percentage (157/243 passing), 1,762 passing yards, 258 rushing yards, 17 total TD’s (13 passing, 4 rushing), and 4 INT’s. Tennessee will play their final non-conference game of the year this week as they host UConn at Noon Eastern.

5. Carson Beck (Georgia)

Previous Ranking: 5

Even without his best weapon, Beck was still productive in Georgia’s 43-20 win over Florida in the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. Beck went 19/28 through the air for 315 passing yards, 2 passing TD’s, and 0 INT’s. On the year, Beck now has a 73% completion percentage (192/263 passing), 2,462 passing yards, 17 total TD’s (14 passing, 3 rushing), and 4 INT’s.

Georgia will have arguably their biggest test to-date as they host Brady Cook and No. 12 Missouri at 3:30 pm Eastern on Saturday.
