​Although they started slow, by the end of the game, Kentucky football stood tall after a 34-17 victory over Vanderbilt, and quarterback Kenny Minchey was a big reason for that, as he has been all season.Minchey has been one of the nation’s most efficient quarterbacks this season. Outside of a tough second half against the Alabama Crimson Tide, he has avoided turnovers, and his clean performances are a big reason why Kentucky has pulled out so many close wins. Against Vanderbilt, he was 19-of-26 for 203 yards and a touchdown. He also ran for a score.Around the rest of the SEC, the best performance came from LSU Tigers QB Sam Leavitt. Meanwhile, there were struggles among the top guys. Trinidad Chambliss tossed three interceptions, Byrum Brown was held in check, while John Mateer avoided turnovers, and Arch Manning got Texas back in the win column.So, how do the quarterbacks of the SEC stack up after week eight of the season. Here are all 16, including Kenny Minchey, ranked from No. 16 to No. 1.16. Jared Curtis – VanderbiltLast week: 15As a freshman, there was always going to be growing pains. He shows flashed of brilliance, but two more turnovers helped Vanderbilt fall to Kentucky on Saturday.15. Marcel Reed – Texas A&MLast week: 13It was been a tough season for both Reed and the Aggies, who expected to be a playoff team. In their loss on Saturday, Reed threw two more picks, and fumbled three times. 14. K.J. Jackson – ArkansasLast week: 14Jackson and the Razorbacks were on a bye in week eight. It hasn’t been an ideal season so far, but he’ll try to close the season strongly.13. George MacIntyre – TennesseeLast week: 11Tennessee’s running game carries their offense, and it has worked very well. When it’s not working, though, MacIntyre struggles. His fumble in the closing minutes against South Carolina cost the Vols the game.12. John Mateer – OklahomaLast week: 16Oklahoma doesn’t need Mateer to be spectacular to win. They just need him to play clean football, which he did on Saturay. He threw for 283 yards and a couple of touchdowns with no intercpetions.11. Byrum Brown – AuburnLast week: 9Brown certainly wasn’t bad against LSU, but he was shut down by a very good Tigers defense. Auburn, as a whole, couldn’t get the offense going, and Brown has to be more consistent at that.10. Aaron Philo – FloridaLast week: 10The Gators were on a bye this week. Philo just needs to be a good game manager, and let Jadan Baugh go to work.9. Arch Manning – TexasLast week: 12Manning threw two interceptions, but he made some terrific throws, and led the Longhorns to another big win over a ranked team. When he’s on, Manning is very good, and has the tools to be even better.8. Kamario Taylor – Mississippi StateLast week: 8Taylor is an elite talent, but hasn’t played for a few weeks now, and Mississippi State is struggling without him.7. Gunner Stockton – GeorgiaLast week: 6Stockton and the Bulldogs were on a bye this week. He has had a great season, but is looking to
