SEC teams will play carrying CFP rankings for the first time this season on Saturday, and two of the six league games for Week 11 will match ranked teams. No. 3 Georgia visits No. 16 Ole Miss, and No. 11 Alabama visits No. 15 LSU. Twelve teams will qualify for the CFP field this season. Here are 10 stats from SEC Football by the Numbers, along with the schedule, TV and betting lines, to get ready for Week 11:

4 Consecutive Alabama coaches have lost their first game against LSU. Kalen DeBoer will be in his first LSU game as the Crimson Tide’s coach on Saturday. The most recent Alabama coach to win in his first meeting with LSU was Gene Stallings, who guided the Tide to a 24-3 victory over the Tigers on Nov. 10, 1990. Since then, LSU defeated Mike DuBose 27-0 on Nov. 8, 1997, Dennis Franchione 35-21 on Nov. 3, 2001, Mike Shula 27-3 on Nov. 15, 2003, and Nick Saban 41-34 on Nov. 3, 2007. All those games were in Tuscaloosa. The two Alabama coaches who took the Tide to Baton Rouge in their first seasons during the SEC era won – Ray Perkins 32-26 on Nov. 5, 1983, and Bill Curry 22-10 on Nov. 7, 1987.

5 SEC teams have held their first eight opponents to fewer than 20 points in a season this century, with Tennessee joining the list in 2024. The other teams – LSU in 2003, Alabama in 2011 and 2012 and Georgia in 2021 – went on to win the national-championship game. Georgia didn’t allow its first 12 opponents to reach 20 points in 2021, LSU didn’t allow its first 11 opponents to reach 20 points in 2003 and Alabama didn’t allow its first 10 opponents to reach 20 points in 2011 or first nine in 2012. This is the first season in which the Volunteers have held their first eight opponents to fewer than 20 points apiece since 1966, when Tennessee did so in all 11 of its games. The Vols have kept their past nine opponents from reaching 20 points, including their 35-0 shutout of Iowa in the Citrus Bowl to cap the 2023 season. It’s the longest stretch of games without any of Tennessee’s opponents reaching 20 points since doing so in the final nine games of the 1985 season. Tennessee’s Saturday opponent, Mississippi State, has averaged scoring 29.1 points per game this season and has been held to fewer than 20 points twice in nine games.

13 Victories without a loss for LSU in Saturday night games at Tiger Stadium under coach Brian Kelly. The Tigers also won their final two night home games before Kelly came aboard, so the winning streak is at 15 in a row at night at Tiger Stadium since a 16-13 overtime setback against Arkansas on Nov. 20, 2021. The wins include a 32-31 overtime victory against Alabama in 2022. Overall, LSU has a 14-game home winning streak that dates from a 40-13 loss to Tennessee on Oct. 8, 2022. That game is LSU’s only home loss in 18 games under Kelly. LSU hosts Alabama on Saturday night.

15 Consecutive victories for South Carolina against Vanderbilt entering their meeting on Saturday. The Commodores most recently defeated the Gamecocks 24-17 on Sept. 4, 2008. South Carolina leads the series 29-4. At No. 24 in this week’s Associated Press Poll, Vanderbilt is playing South Carolina as a ranked team for the first time. The Commodores’ most recently won a game while ranked in the AP Poll on Oct. 4, 2008, when No. 19 Vanderbilt defeated Auburn 14-13. The Commodores have played three games as a ranked team since then.

17 Consecutive victories have been tallied by Georgia in the game after its annual contest against Florida in Jacksonville, Florida. Georgia defeated Florida 34-20 last week and plays Ole Miss on Saturday. Since Kentucky beat the Bulldogs 24-20 after the Florida game in 2006, Georgia has defeated Kentucky five times, Missouri three, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, South Carolina and Tennessee once apiece in SEC games and also beaten five non-conference opponents on the Saturday after playing the Gators.

20 Rushing yards are needed for Tennessee RB Dylan Sampson to become the first SEC player to reach 1,000 for the 2024 season. Sampson enters Saturday’s game against Ole Miss with 980 yards and 19 TDs on 171 rushing attempts. There have been 19 1,000-yard rushing seasons recorded by Tennessee players, with Johnnie Jones in 1983 and 1984 as the Volunteers’ only two-time 1,000-yard rusher. Sampson’s TD total for this season is a school record, and he’s run for at least one TD in every game this season. The Ole Miss defense has yielded four rushing TDs this season, tied with Tennessee for the fewest in the SEC.

25 Victories and seven losses for Missouri coach Eliah Drinkwitz on Faurot Field at Memorial Stadium entering Oklahoma’s visit on Saturday. Drinkwitz’s .781 home winning percentage is the best of any Missouri coach with at least four seasons with the Tigers. Missouri is 5-0 at home this season with two games left at Memorial Stadium on the 2024 schedule. The Tigers haven’t completed a season without a home loss since they went 6-0 in Columbia in 2007. Missouri has won eight consecutive home games since a 49-39 loss to LSU on Oct. 7, 2023.

36 Yards of total offense are needed by Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart in Saturday’s game against Georgia to reach the top 10 on the SEC’s career list. With 562 yards of total offense in last week’s 63-31 victory over Arkansas, Dart passed Bo Wallace as Ole Miss’ career leader with 10,805 yards of total offense – 9,548 passing yards and 1,257 rushing yards. Georgia QB Eric Zeier (1991-94) ranks 10th in SEC history with 10,841 yards of total offense (11,153 passing yards and minus-312 rushing yards). The SEC career leader in yards of total offense is Georgia QB Aaron Murray (2010-13), who had 13,562 yards (13,166 passing and 396 rushing).

100 Years since the first Florida-Texas game and the Longhorns’ first game at what is now Darrel K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. On Oct. 25, 1924, Texas and Florida tied 7-7 in the Longhorns’ final game at Clark Field. In its next home game, Texas lost to Baylor 28-10 at Texas Memorial Stadium on Nov. 8, 1924, in a Southwest Conference game attended by 13,500 fans. The Longhorns and Gators played in Austin again on Sept. 30, 1939, with Texas taking a 12-0 victory. Saturday’s game will be the programs’ first meeting since Dec. 7, 1940, when the Longhorns defeated the Gators 26-0 in Gainesville.

1,300 Games in South Carolina history when the Gamecocks take the field against Vanderbilt on Saturday. South Carolina has a 639-616-44 record. The Gamecocks’ 1,300th game could be doubly notable for South Carolina with a victory over Vanderbilt. The Gamecocks have road victories over Kentucky and Oklahoma in 2024 and have not won three SEC games on the road in the same season since 2013, when South Carolina defeated Georgia, Mississippi State and Tennessee away from home.
