Florida rose to No. 3 after beating Auburn, meaning three of the top five teams came from the SEC. Nine total SEC teams were ranked this week, with Texas A&M, Kentucky, Ole Miss, Missouri and Mississippi State rounding out the top 25 behind Auburn, Alabama, Florida and Tennessee.

The latest USA TODAY Coaches Poll is out. As expected, Auburn suffered a slight dump after dropping its first SEC loss of the season to No. 6 Florida last Saturday at Neville Arena. The good news is that Auburn slipped to just No.

It was all because the Florida Gators, another top SEC squad, toppled them down. One might think that a program suffering its first in-conference loss and having its 14-game win streak snapped would equate to being dragged down in the AP Top 25 Poll.
