It seems like every week now the SEC is finding new ways to shock us. Last week took that to an extreme level, with the lower team in the overall conference standings winning every game.

Who could have predicted that?

The conference is exactly as deep as we expected it to be, and now we have a few new teams on a roll as we’re getting ready to bring you our Vegas SEC Predictions. Welcome to the show, Tennessee and Arkansas. They are the new trendy picks.

And wouldn’t you know it? They both play divisional games against ranked teams at home this week. The Vols play the Missouri Tigers, who are still first in the SEC East, and the Razorbacks play the Ole Miss Rebels, who still have an outside shot at winning the SEC West.

Can the SEC give us a repeat of last week? Well, with five teams playing non-conference games against either Sun Belt or FCS programs, it’s highly unlikely. Add in the Mississippi State-Vanderbilt game, and we have to give you a little straight talk: the SEC slate is simply not that great this weekend.

But those first two games could be very exciting, so don’t sleep on them.

And with that, here are our Vegas SEC Predictions for Week 12 of the college football season.
