Today we look at the new Moral Victory! power rankings, as well as the best and worst scenarios for each team. (At least we don’t have to travel to a bowl and freeze our butts off this year.)

How come Bama is #1 if you predict UF to be 13-0 and Bama to be 12-1 (which infers UF beats Bama in SEC championship game)?
The rankings are based on teams performances so far this season. Alabama has been No. 1 in the MV! power ratings since its win over Va Tech the opening week but we're still predicting UF to win it all.
Gotcha, thanks
Yes, I tried to incorporate the past, present and future into one power ranking post. When your team stinks, you've got to generate some excitement somehow.
