ESPN released its College Football Power Rankings after Week 5, which included ten teams from the SEC.

Ole Miss, which knocked off LSU last week, moved all the way to No. 4 in the Power Rankings as the highest-ranked SEC team. Here's what Bill Connelly had to say about the Rebels:

4. Ole Miss Rebels
Previous ranking: 11


Nothing can derail your season faster than a quarterback injury, but since Austin Simmons got hurt for Ole Miss, Ferris State transfer Trinidad Chambliss has stepped in and delivered three consecutive 300-yard passing games and three wins. He has thrown for 974 yards and four touchdowns in his starts while rushing for 245 yards and two more scores, and the Rebels have not only survived Simmons' injury, but thrived. In Saturday's 24-19 win over LSU, Chambliss completed passes to nine different receivers and finished with 314 passing yards and 71 rushing yards. Ole Miss nearly doubled the Tigers' total yardage (480-254) but needed a late fourth-down conversion to ice the win and remain unbeaten. Chambliss threw a strike to Dae'Quan Wright, and that was that. -- Bill Connelly
