SEC Schedule Week 8

GAME OF THE WEEK

Auburn at LSU, Saturday, 3:30 ET, CBS

Still the only SEC battle of Tigers (for now), it's also the only battle of ranked teams within the conference. Will the current distractions derail the Bayou Bengals, or will LSU hold serve at home against the overmatched Plainsmen?

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22

Jacksonville State at Kentucky, 12:00 ET, ESPNU

These Gamecocks beat one of the SEC's weakest teams in 2010. Will they do it again in 2011?

Arkansas at Ole Miss, 12:21 ET, SEC Network

Will this be the last Houston Nutt Bowl where Houston Nutt himself is on the sideline?

Army at Vanderbilt, 7:00 ET, ESPNU

The Commodores are looking to avenge their 2009 loss to the Black Knights, but bigger than that, a win here puts them two victories away from bowl eligibility.

Tennessee at Alabama, 7:15 ET, ESPN2

Nick Saban has yet to lose to Tennessee at Alabama and is 6-1 overall against the Volunteers. His run of success will likely continue with several key UT players out.
