The preseason SEC standings and all-conference teams are now out following SEC Media Days in Tampa, giving fans an early look at how the league is viewed before the season begins. As expected, Georgia opened at the top of the conference projection, with the Bulldogs chosen by the media as the preseason SEC champion.
Georgia was once again the favorite in the media vote and drew 88 first-place votes, underscoring the program’s strong position entering the new campaign. The result keeps the Bulldogs in the spotlight as the team many around the conference expect to beat.
Along with the preseason standings, the SEC also revealed its preseason all-conference teams. Those selections serve as another snapshot of which programs and players are generating the most respect ahead of kickoff, even though preseason honors do not always match how the year ultimately unfolds.
The release of the SEC media poll and all-conference teams is one of the final major talking points to come out of Media Days. It sets the tone for the weeks ahead, with Georgia leading the conversation as the conference favorite and the rest of the league trying to close the gap once games begin.
