SEC Power Rankings following Week 11 of 2019: Vols still top half
Once again, the Missouri Tigers lost on the road. They are on a three-game losing streak, all away from home, and have yet to win on the road at all or lose at home. This team is crazy, and Barry Odom’s program is now completely out of any potential SEC East race. But let’s be honest, they were going to be anyway.
What made Saturday worse for them was the fact that Kelly Bryant didn’t play. Now, though, they could be in trouble. Even if they do have a bowl ban, they still would like to reach bowl eligibility. And with Derek Dooley’s offense coming completely undone in road games, that could be a problem going forward.
This team is clearly next to last in our SEC Power Rankings right now since we base those on how you’re playing at the current moment. Even if being on the road is the factor, Mizzou is playing very poorly at the current moment. You can’t excuse a 27-0 loss to the Georgia Bulldogs.
And now, falling under .500 is a danger. Their next game is back home, but it’s against the Florida Gators, and we don’t know how healthy Bryant will be. Then they host the Tennessee Vols, who have completely turned things around and will be coming off a bye. Their most winnable game left is against the Arkansas Razorbacks. But that one’s on the road. So they could be in trouble.
