ATLANTA–It's been a few years since the SEC had four teams ranked in the Associated Press top 11.
And it's been an especially long time since Kentucky was part of that cluster of elite national programs, but here we are.
On Sunday, the Wildcats garnered a No. 11 ranking from the AP voters, properly setting the stage for next week's showdown with No. 6 UGA.
At stake: It's a winner-take-all scenario for SEC East supremacy.
It's a big game for Georgia and Kentucky fans, obviously; but next week, it'll warrant second billing nationally, with top-ranked Alabama and No. 4 LSU squaring off in Baton Rouge.
