An SEC Six-Pack

   Vanderbilt made it an even half-dozen in the AP Top 25 rankings today by emerging at No. 21.  A 23-17 win over Ole Miss assured the Commodores their first 4-0 start since 1984.

   Same as for LSU, the loss of a starting quarterback (Chris Nickson) to injury did not spell doom. Mackenzi Adams came to the rescue.

   Vandy, 2-0 in the league with an earlier win over South Carolina, speaks to the power of the SEC. When your traditional 98-pound weakling cracks the polls, you can further lay claim to the nation's primo conference.

   How good are the 'Dores? Can they make one of the Big Five sweat? We'll have to wait until Oct. 4 against Auburn.
