As the regular season begins to wind down, the pressure on Southeastern Conference programs continues to rise, entering a stacked Week 12 slate where the results could make or break chances of reaching the league championship and CFP.

Looking ahead to how things could look after this weekend, Texas A&M and Alabama must continue to play consistent football and not get caught looking ahead if they want to stake a claim at the top of the SEC heading into December. For head coach Kirby Smart and the Georgia Bulldogs, defending home turf against the Texas Longhorns will be key in staying in the hunt for a spot in the SEC title game and a higher-seeded playoff bid. After many believed Texas was out of the race following their loss to Florida, Steve Sarkisian has his crew playing at a high level with much momentum heading into Athens this weekend.

For the Ole Miss Rebels, the mission is to keep winning. As long as Lane Kiffin's squad wins out, they will be a lock for the playoffs with their sole loss against Georgia. Oklahoma and Vanderbilt are on the brink of securing their own spot in the CFP, but the Sooners are faced with a massive challenge in Tuscaloosa against quarterback Ty Simpson and the Crimson Tide. The Commodores are on BYE after a closely-contested overtime victory over Auburn in Week 11.
