Ranking SEC Programs

[Dave Hart]

Josh Pate is one of the only national guys I pay attention to. He did his Top 10 SEC program rankings the other day based on a 4 year rolling blend of talent acquisition, on-field results (with more weight to recent success), resource pool, and organizational stability including coaches/administration. His list was:

1. Georgia

2. Texas

3. Alabama

4. Tennessee

5. LSU

6. Ole Miss

7. Texas A&M

8. Missouri

9. South Carolina

10. Florida

 

Thought this would be a cool discussion and would love to hear the OTF community’s rankings

Pate’s kind of a UGA homer (from Georgia).

He hyped up Gunnar Stockton beyond belief before the CFP last year.

”He brought Georgia back FROM BEHIND vs Texas” 

“From behind” in a 6-3 hole

That seems about right to me. I'd probably change the order of the bottom four:

7 Missouri

8 Florida

9 South Carolina

10 A&M

Georgia Homer or not Georgia beat us twice last year to win the sec title, have averaged a recruiting ranking of 2 over the last four years. Georgia has the crown until we take it. 
 

Im surprised he has Florida so low. With all the DJ Lagway buzz and NIL money spent I figured they might be a couple places higher and I think Missouri is fools gold

UGA (until otherwise)

Texas 

LSU (those guys will figure it out)

Bama 

Tenn

Ole Miss 

 Big drop off 

Aggy

Florida 

South Carolina 

Missouri (good success but not sustainable)

Auburn (can jump into top group by Ole Miss if they get their stuff together)
