SEC Power Rankings following Week 4 of 2018: Vols still near bottom

Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs have already had two tough tests on the road in the SEC. And they have aced both of them with flying colors. Their last win on Saturday proved they can dominate even when not playing their best.

That was basically the case as the Georgia Buldogs were able to put away the Missouri Tigers. This is a dangerous team at home with a high-powered offense, and the Dawgs are talented but very young on defense. So that opened the door for lots of issues.

However, these guys were able to handle anything that came their way, and they still managed to dominate. The offense showed it is still rolling as well, and the dominance of these guys show that there is no drop-off for them from last year.

On top of that, things are going to get easier for a brief period of time in Athens. Georgia’s next two games are at home against the Tennessee Vols and the Vanderbilt Commodores. They should win both to easily get to 6-0.

Then they have their most brutal test of the year. UGA has to travel to Baton Rouge to take on the LSU Tigers in what could be a battle of two undefeated teams. The Kentucky Wildcats are on the road this year, and the Auburn Tigers are still on the schedule. So they have lots of work to still do. But for now, they belong at No. 2 in our SEC Power Rankings.
