FAA Delay Grounds SEC Football's Week 11 Upset-Free Run
15 Nov
Summary
- FAA ground stoppage caused travel issues, postponing one game.
- Top-ranked Georgia dominated Missouri, securing a key victory.
- Alabama overcame a slow start to defeat Vanderbilt on the road.
The SEC's Week 11 experienced significant disruption not from on-field upsets, but from FAA-mandated ground stoppages impacting team travel. This led to the postponement of the Ole Miss vs. Oklahoma game to Sunday. Despite the travel headaches, the conference's top teams maintained their rankings.
Top-ranked Georgia demonstrated its dominance with a commanding 48-21 victory over Missouri, fueled by Nate Frazier's three rushing touchdowns. Alabama, with Keelon Russell starting at quarterback, overcame a slow offensive start to defeat Vanderbilt 21-6, with Russell accounting for all three of their touchdowns.
No. 8 Texas secured a vital College Football Playoff resume win against No. 22 LSU, with Arch Manning leading the team to victory on the final play. In other games, Auburn became bowl-eligible with a decisive win, and No. 9 Tennessee earned its eighth victory of the season.
