Top 25 consists of...
5 SEC TEAMS
3 ACC Teams
3 Big 12 Teams
2 Pac-10 Teams
2 Western Athletic Teams
1 Big Ten Team
1 Conference USA Team
1 Independent Team
1 Mountain West Team
(after doing that, I realized that I missed about 5 or so teams...but this updated one has all 25)
That was before Saturday. Let's look at what has happened since...

SEC continues to show its strength, although #24 LSU is about to get bumped out. They have to go to the Swamp on Saturday. #25 South Carolina has an easy home game against Ole Miss. #6 Auburn has an easy home game against Lousiana Tech, and the Tigers, with Georgia are well on there way to two quality top 5 schools. The #17 Tennessee Volunteers will be traveling to face the #3 Georgia Bulldogs. It'll be a tough game for both teams, but here are my SEC predictions for week seven:
(bolded team favored)
Ole Miss at #25 South Carolina
Alabama at Kentucky
UAB at Mississippi State
Louisiana Tech at #6 Auburn
#17 Tennessee at #3 Georgia
#24 LSU at #12 Florida
Rutgers at Vanderbilt
Arkansas will take the week off and prepare to go play Auburn in week eight.
I expect for Tennessee to put up a real good game against Georgia. That game will be close. The Rutgers-Vanderbilt game will be close. The UAB-MissState game will be close. The 'Bama-Kentucky game will be close. South Carolina will win by at least 10 against Ole Miss. Auburn will win by at least 21 against LATech. Florida will win by at least one touchdown and a few missed LSU PATs.
A little further down the road: I expect Auburn and Georgia to be facing off in Atlanta for the SEC championship, and I expect seeing both of those teams, as well as Florida and Tennessee in some good bowl games. Arkansas and South Carolina probably won't make any January bowl games, but they'll definitely be going to a decent bowl. If Arkansas can replace Matt Jones, they'll have a solid team for the next few years.
