ESPN computer model projects entire SEC schedule for Week 2

The first full weekend of college football has come and gone, for the most part, successfully for the SEC.

Unless we’re talking about LSU or Texas A&M.

Week 2 will bring big games of all kinds.

Texas takes on Michigan in a clash of two truly elite teams.

South Carolina and Kentucky will play in the first SEC game of the season.

Tennessee has a tough trip to North Carolina State, while Mississippi State has an important postseason-qualifying matchup coming up against Arizona State.

So how does ESPN’s computer model, the Football Power Index (FPI), predict the second week of SEC play?

Here’s what they’re saying about each game this weekend.
