Alabama and Georgia are widely expected to make the College Football Playoff once again this season. But several other SEC teams have high aspirations, and two of them will meet on Saturday in Oxford, Mississippi as Ole Miss welcomes Kentucky to town.
The Wildcats and Rebels carry matching 4-0 marks into this contest, but both teams were challenged more than most would have expected this past weekend.
Kentucky and Northern Illinois were tied at halftime before Big Blue took command with 17 unanswered points on the way to a 31-23 win.
The Rebels started fast but finished slow in their win over Tulsa. Thanks to a 28-point second quarter, Ole Miss led 35-17 at halftime.
