Last week Billy Napier got a taste of SEC Media Days. Part of the week is the media preseason polls, where the media predicts the winners of each division and a champion for the conference. It will come as little surprise that Alabama and Georgia were picked to win their divisions. However, Florida was picked to finish fourth in the SEC East behind Georgia, Tennessee, and Kentucky.
Fourth?!
Additionally, UF had five players picked to the preseason All-SEC teams. O’Cyrus Torrence was the only Gator picked to the first team. Brenton Cox was named to the second team.
