Jumbo Package: SEC SIDs vote Alabama preseason favorites for the 10th straight season

Happy Monday, everyone. The SEC SID offices have spoken, and Alabama is once again the favorite to win the league.

The Crimson Tide was the pick by 11 of the SEC’s 14 football information directors to win the league championship in 2022, in voting compiled by AL.com/The Birmingham News for the 76th straight year. Alabama — which, we must remember, beat Georgia for the SEC title last year before falling to the Bulldogs in the national championship game — is the preseason favorite in this poll for the 10th consecutive year.

Alabama has made good on that projection in six of the nine thus far.
