Arkansas is the top team in the SEC this week, and LSU falls out of the top spot, and it's the "why" that matters. And is Florida perhaps better than both? Why are Alabama and Auburn higher than you'd expect, and Vanderbilt lower than you'd think? Health has a lot to do with that, as well as South Carolina. Is Tennessee ready to bust out? Is Kentucky underrated? Who's better, Ole Miss or Mississippi State? That, and much more, in our power rankings, which are designed to hint at what might be around the corner for each SEC team.

Arkansas, behind a complete-game effort from Hunter Hollan, took the series from South Carolina and moves into first place overall. Mississippi State, in perhaps the stunner of the college baseball season, comes from nine down to beat LSU in extra innings and take the series in Baton Rouge as LSU continues to struggle on the mound after Paul Skenes. Vanderbilt, without Carter Holton and Hunter Owen, was swept at Florida, which suddenly found pitching, and that included a fantastic Sunday outing by Jac Caglianone. For the second-straight day, Missouri walked off Georgia; on Sunday, that came via Cam Chick's two-RBI single that vaulted the Tigers to a series sweep. Kentucky and Tennessee each get 17 runners on in Sunday's game, but the Vols somehow manage to get shut out as Kentucky slugs five home runs in a 10-0 win. Alabama's Jacob McNairy and Alton Davis II combine on an 11-0 shutout of Texas A&M as Andrew Pinckney and Tommy Siedl slug home runs. Missouri walks off Georgia thanks to Cam Chick's single that leads to a series sweep. Finally, Auburn, behind another great outing from Tommy Vail, finishes a sweep at Ole Miss on Saturday.

Texas A&M football recently added transfer quarterback Jaylen Henderson to its roster. Henderson comes from Fresno State. Henderson does not have a ton of experience or stats compiled in his college career. However, he is a fourth scholarship quarterback for the Aggies and a Dual-Threat piece for Bobby Petrino to have in reserve for Connor Weigman.

The addition of Henderson has several impacts on the Aggies in 2023. Blayne Gilmer of Southeastern 14 examines those.

Kirby Smart and the University of Georgia football program have accomplished a lot over the last seven seasons, including back-to-back national championships and two SEC championships. All of that has been done without the receiving weapons that Smart and Offensive Coordinator Mike Bobo will have at their disposal in the 2023 season.

Blayne Gilmer of Southeastern 14 tells you why this is the deepest receiving corps that Georgia has had in the Kirby Smart era and why the 2023 UGA offense is going to be scary for opposing defenses.

Returning: Brock Bowers, Ladd McConkey, Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, Dillon Bell, Arian Smith, Jackson Meeks, Oscar Delp, De'Nylon Morrisette, Cole Speer, CJ Smith (Roughly 60% of Georgia's receiving production in 2022)

Additions: Dominic Lovett & Rara Thomas (1472 yards & 14 TDs at Missouri & Mississippi State combined in 2022). Lawson Luckie, Yazeed Haynes (4.3 40), Anthony Evans (10.27 100m), Tyler Williams (6'3" 205).

It was a wild weekend in the SEC, one that was unkind to road teams unless you were Arkansas, which swept Mississippi State and now sits tied with Vanderbilt atop the SEC's overall standings. Kentucky sweeps South Carolina and climbs into the No. 1 RPI spot, thanks to pitching from Zack Lee and outstanding offense. Auburn surprises LSU thanks to unexpected great pitching from Christian Herberholz and Drew Nelson, while LSU's Christian Little doesn't get an out on Sunday. Georgia takes the series from Tennessee after its bullpen is terrific on Sunday and Charlie Condon slams three home runs. Texas A&M wins on a balk-off over Florida, damaging the Gators' overall title hopes and putting the Aggies in position to make a regional.
