SEC post-spring power rankings
Now that spring practice has come and gone, why not tweak the SEC power rankings?
The teams always look a little different coming out of the spring. New players emerge. Injuries, suspensions and dismissals occur, and coaches bemoan depth issues at key spots.
The top of the league remains unchanged. Alabama’s the best team in the SEC until proven otherwise. Florida’s the second-best team until proven otherwise.
Yes, both teams lost great players. But both teams also have immensely talented players waiting in the wings behind those players they lost.
After Alabama and Florida, it’s anybody’s guess. Having been to most of the spring camps the past two months, I can see how a case could be made for Arkansas, Auburn, Georgia, LSU and South Carolina all to be ranked No. 3.
Here’s my best college try as we head into the summer:
