On Tuesday the SEC released their preseason media poll, a chance to see where people see the league stacking up as we’re set to enter non-conference play in only a few weeks.
From the release: “Points were compiled on a 14-13-12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 basis. Each media member also voted for a five-player All-SEC Team. Ties were not broken.”
Here is how the team voting shook out:1. Tennessee 2. Texas A&M
- Arkansas
- Kentucky
- Alabama
- Auburn
- Mississippi State
- Florida
- Missouri
- Ole Miss
- Vanderbilt
- Georgia
- LSU
- South Carolina
Florida’s 8th place finish in the poll mirrors much of what we’re seeing from a prediction standpoint with nearly every media member and algorithmically generated ranking having the Gators somewhere between 7th and 9th.
