Preseason SEC Football Media Poll, All-SEC Team Announced

 

BIRMINGHAM, Alabama (July 19, 2024) — Georgia has been predicted to win the 2024 SEC Championship, according to a preseason poll of media covering SEC Football Media Days.

 

The Bulldogs received 165 votes to be crowned SEC Champion on December 7 in Atlanta at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, with Texas being picked to be the Bulldogs’ opponent in the Longhorns’ first season in the league. Texas received 27 votes to win the SEC Championship.

 

This will mark the first season since 1991 with no divisions in SEC Football. The participants of the game will be determined during the eight-game regular-season conference schedule as the teams with the two best overall SEC

winning percentages.

 

Only nine times since 1992 (32 years) has the predicted champion prior to the season at SEC Media Days proceeded to win the SEC Championship Game.

 

The SEC Championship Game has been the most watched conference championship nationally for 15 of the past 16 seasons, including 12 in a row from 2008-2019. The only year it was not No. 1 was 2020 when the SEC did not have a traditional schedule due to the pandemic. The 2023 SEC Championship Game averaged 17.519 million viewers, +61% vs. last year’s game, and peaked with 22.350 million viewers. It was the most-watched Conference Championship Game on any network in five years.

The DISRESPECT for Georgia Football is CRAZY

 

 

 

 

The DISRESPECT for Georgia Football is CRAZY! Kirby Smart’s Georgia Bulldogs are the preseason, odds-on favorites to win the College Football Playoff National Championship in 2024, but it is Ohio State, Oregon, Ole Miss, Alabama, and Texas that are the sexy picks everyone seems to be talking about during the aphelion of the college football offseason. I talk about a few reasons why that is in this episode.

cover 3 podcast – College football experts pick Georgia to win the National Championship

“Is it a 4-peat if Georgia wins next year?”  – Bud Elliott

Chip Patterson: Who would be your title pick next season Bud?

Bud Elliott: Georgia. They return the best QB of all of the…what we would consider the immediate contenders. From the chatter it sounds like Dumas Johnson was gonna get Wally Pipped. He got dinged up and it was like “Oh! CJ Allen is a future ten year pro.” Wilson is coming along. It seemed like Georgia got the right guys to not declare. They have the QB coming back, so I would pick Georgia.

Tom Fornelli: I would also pick Georgia. And then the question is if Michigan’s title gets vacated is it a three peat for Georgia.

Bud Elliott: Is it a 4-peat if Georgia wins next year?
Georgia’s schedule is certainly tough as the chat is pointing out. But you have to consider things differently in this new era.

Chip Patterson: 12 team expansion

(They discussed other possible teams)

Ohio State- Dog backed into the corner mentality. “Desperation Day………..Part III”

Texas- If Arch lives up to being Arch Manning (Isn’t Ewers back? Weird comment unless he changed his mind.)

Michigan- Got enough coming back to make a run. Perhaps even more run heavy. Defense is gonna be great.

Arizona- 18 starters back and easy conference

Oregon- Have to put them up there. Roster is rapidly improving. Dylan Gabriel is a vet.

Penn State- Chip doesn’t like. Tom doesn’t like. Conference is tougher. May make the playoffs, but no real chance.

Alabama- Milroe may not be likely to improve, but certainly a possiblility he does.

Bud: I like that there are so many teams we can’t rule out. If Georgia plays so well it’s a foregone conclusion, you still have to go win three tough games in a row.

Washington- losing too much off the roster. Not in the playoff.

If Harbaugh goes NFL would Kalen D. pull a Kevin Durant?

Alabama Fans Are OBSESSED with the Georgia Bulldogs

 

 

 

 

Alabama Fans Are OBSESSED with the Georgia Bulldogs! My recent interactions lead me to believe that the majority of Alabama Football fans are suffering from a massive inferiority complex and are wrestling with a severe identity crisis. I can see no other reason they would be so drawn to the Georgia Bulldogs and the content about Kirby Smart and his program. I suppose it’s because now that Nick Saban is gone they know things will never be the same and coping with this new reality is not going to be easy.

GEORGIA FOOTBALL and the Transfer Portal BROKE Alabama Fans! Alabama fans are obsessed with the Georgia Football and Ohio State head coach Ryan Day says, “F*ck it!” After spending $13+ million to build an ELITE roster for the Buckeyes, it is national championship or bust in Columbus in 2024.

If You’re a Georgia Football fan You Need To Watch This

 

 

 

 

If You’re a Georgia Football fan You Need To Watch This. Georgia Football is a MONSTER Under Kirby Smart. Nobody in college football works harder or is more relentless than Kirby Smart and with the changes happening at Alabama due to Nick Saban’s retirement, Smart is taking no prisoners, offering no quarter, and making every move to put his foot on the throat of college football and improve his program in every way possible regardless of the mechanism. Whether it’s recruiting, coaches, roster management, etc., no one is moving quicker or making more power moves than Kirby Smart.
