Final SEC Football Power Rankings
With the national championship between LSU and Clemson being the only game remaining in the 2019 season, its time to take a final look at the power rankings for the SEC heading into the offseason.
LSU finishes as the clear and obvious No. 1. Not only did the Tigers defeat Georgia soundly in the SEC Championship Game but they also defeated Oklahoma in the College Football Playoff semifinal 63-28. LSU dominated almost every team it faced, and finished the season on top.
Alabama made a statement in the Citrus Bowl that the Crimson Tide dynasty isn't done yet. A 35-16 victory over No. 14 Michigan secured the No. 2 spot for Alabama, and with many juniors rumored to return, the winning will continue in Tuscaloosa come fall of 2020.
Georgia completed its season with a win over Baylor in the Sugar Bowl. The Bulldogs dominated both sides of the ball, but didn't impress enough to warrant a rise in the rankings.

1. LSU (14-0)
