6. Joe Milton II (Tennessee)

Previous Ranking: 6

It was a frustrating day for Tennessee on Saturday as they fell to Missouri 36-7. Milton was solid through the air as he went 22/34 for 267 passing yards, 36 rushing yards, 1 passing TD, and 1 INT. For the year, Milton has a 65.3% completion percentage (190/291 passing), 2,283 passing yards, 301 rushing yards, 21 total TD’s (16 passing, 5 rushing), and 5 INT’s.

While they can no longer win the SEC East, Tennessee will have the chance to play spoiler as they take on Carson Beck and Georgia at 3:30 pm Eastern on Saturday with the hopes of potentially costing Georgia a spot in the CFP. The Vols will also be trying to play themselves back into the NY6 discussion.

5. KJ Jefferson (Arkansas)

Previous Ranking: 4

It was a frustrating loss for Arkansas as they fell to Auburn 48-10 to eliminate the Razorbacks from traditional bowl eligibility. Jefferson was 10/16 passing for 116 passing yards and 50 rushing yards (no TD’s or INT’s). For the year, Jefferson currently has a 65% completion percentage (173/266 passing), 1,918 passing yards, 342 rushing yards, 18 total TD’s (16 passing, 2 rushing), and 8 INT’s.

Jefferson and the Razorbacks will dip back into non-conference play as they take on FIU at 7:30 pm Eastern on Saturday.
