After a long summer of endless waiting for the College Football season to get here, it finally came.  13 of the 14 teams in the SEC got to play meaningful football games on Saturday, with all but one team winning their season debut.  Sorry, Vanderbilt.  LSU, you get to play this week.

It’s still insanely early to put a lot of stock in games against mostly teams in Non-Power 5 Conferences, but if you look closely enough, we can see a glimpse of what is in store for each SEC team.  The SEC should again have around 10-12 bowl caliber teams.  The Conference featured eight teams ranked in the initial AP Top 25 poll: 5 in the West and 3 in the East.

While there has been not a major power shift in the divisions thus far, we might see a little shuffling in the perceptions of the 14 SEC teams.  Our Georgia Bulldogs looked good in their Week 1 home opener against the ULM Warhawks, winning 51-14 in a shortened game.  Only the Alabama Crimson Tide, the South Carolina Gamecocks, and the Texas A&M Aggies played non-conference games against a Power 5 opponent in Week 1.

So did we learn anything new about the SEC in the first week of the season?  Mostly re-affirmations of things we already new, but maybe a few subtle things we weren’t aware of.  Entering the second week of the College Football season, I will once again attempt to power ranking the division our Georgia Bulldogs are a part of.  Here’s how the SEC East stacks up entering Week 2.
