As the calendar flips to November, the SEC Championship race is a dead heat at the top with a massive logjam right behind the leaders. The Kentucky Wildcats are longer in 1st place all by themselves thanks to Georgia absolutely routing Florida.
Much like the rest of college football this year, the SEC is set up for a wild finish.
Georgia and Kentucky control their own destinies, sitting tied for first place. If Kentucky and Georgia both win out, they will be in Atlanta.
But a crowded six-team cluster
of two-loss teams is breathing down their necks and ready to pounce. Alabama, Ole Miss, LSU, Missouri, Tennessee, and Texas remain firmly in the hunt.
Here are the standings and what each team has left in the conference.
