As the 2017 season comes to a close, rivalry week is once again upon us. Here are three SEC football teams on upset alert in Week 13.

Before we get into Week 13, let’s run through a quick recap of Week 12. Alabama, Auburn, South Carolina and Florida all played out of conference and found big wins within those match ups. Alabama beat Mercer 56-0. Florida took out UAB with a 36-7 win and Auburn took out UL Monroe with a 42-14. South Carolina beat Wofford 31-10 as they prepare for Clemson in the coming week.

Inside the conference, Texas A&M took out Ole Miss in Oxford. They won 31-24 to guarantee another winning season for the Aggies. The game also brought with it SEC Player of the Week honors for true freshman safety Derrick Tucker. LSU dismantled Tennessee 30-10 in the torrential downpour that was Rocky Top, earning their punter SEC Player of the Week honors.

Missouri took down Vanderbilt to push the Commodores to 0-7 in SEC play. Not exactly the season that the Commodores wanted after starting as strong as they did. Mississippi State survived a fighting Razorback team 28-21 and Georgia obliterated Kentucky 42-13 a week after losing to Auburn.

Now that we are caught up, let’s look at the SEC upset alerts in Week 13.
