No. 1 Louisiana State 41, at Mississippi 24: Trindon Holliday returned a kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown, the defense forced two turnovers during goal-line stands and the Tigers (10-1, 6-1) pulled away from the Rebels (3-8, 0-7) at Oxford. The victory gave LSU its first outright SEC West Division title. Craig Steltz had rally-killing interceptions at the end of each half for the Tigers.
at No. 8 Georgia 24, No. 22 Kentucky 13: Knowshon Moreno ran for 124 yards, quarterback Matthew Stafford had a 10-yard touchdown run and the Bullldogs (9-2, 6-2) overcame four turnovers to defeat the Wildcats (7-4, 3-4) at Athens. Georgia clinched at least a tie for first in the SEC East Division and will reach the conference title game if Tennessee loses its final game at Kentucky.
at No. 14 Florida 59, Florida Atlantic 20: Tim Tebow completed 25 of 34 passing for a career-high 338 yards and three touchdowns and ran for another score as the Gators (8-3) routed the Owls (5-4) at Gainesville. Tebow has 20 rushing touchdowns and 26 touchdown passes and is the first player in NCAA history to reach 20 in both categories in the same season.
at No. 19 Tennessee 25, Vanderbilt 24: Daniel Lincoln kicked a 33-yard field goal with 2:46 left to cap a 16-point fourth-quarter comeback and the Volunteers (8-3, 5-2) beat the Commodores (5-6, 2-6) at Knoxville.
at Arkansas 45, Mississippi State 31: Casey Dick threw a career-high four touchdown passes to help the Razorbacks (7-4, 3-4) give embattled Coach Houston Nutt a win over the Bulldogs (6-5, 3-4) at Little Rock.
Louisiana Monroe 21, at Alabama 14: Quintez Secka had two interceptions and the 24 1/2 -point underdog WarHawks (5-6) turned away three promising scoring drives by the Crimson Tide (6-5) in the fourth quarter at Tuscaloosa.
