The SEC East is anybody’s guess at this point.
Florida (4-3, 2-3) and South Carolina (5-2, 3-2) are the only two teams that control their own destiny. If either team wins out, it would win the East title and go to Atlanta.
The Gators and Gamecocks play on Nov. 13 in Gainesville.
The Florida-Georgia game Saturday in Jacksonville could also have a major bearing on the race.
A Georgia win would give South Carolina a nice cushion. In that scenario, the Gamecocks could lose one of their three remaining games (home against Tennessee this Saturday, home against Arkansas on Nov. 6 and at Florida on Nov. 13) and still win the division.
South Carolina owns the head-to-head tiebreaker over Georgia.
For the Bulldogs (4-4, 3-3) to win the East, they would need to win out against Florida this weekend and then at Auburn on Nov. 13 and have the Gamecocks lose two more games.
So, the Gamecocks appear to be in the best shape. But if Florida beats Georgia this weekend, the East race will almost certainly be determined on Nov. 13 when the Gamecocks and Steve Spurrier visit the Swamp.
