When it comes to college football, nobody does it like the Southeastern Conference. The league has the best players, the greatest coaches, and have had at least one team play in the last four College Football Playoff National Championship Games. Needless to say, the SEC is the gold standard for success.

With SEC Media Days officially in the books, and ESPN College Gameday announcing their first stop of the season, it's time to see who the media selected to win the conference and for the 2019 Preseason All-SEC Teams.
