Preseason picks are always to be taken with a grain of salt, but this year’s SEC Preseason Media poll has things right where expectations are for the Hogs. With so much roster turnover, and a team where more than half are freshman (and not the McDonalds All-American variety), the Hogs are picked to finish 10th in the SEC. Daniel Gafford was named to First Team All-SEC as well.
Not surprisingly, Kentucky was picked to be the champions once again. They were followed by Auburn and Tennessee, who are both primed to pick off where they left off last season.
