While the list was predominantly made up of members of the Alabama Crimson Tide, Auburn football had several representatives on USA Today’s SEC LB rankings (via Tuscaloosanews.com), which was the latest entry in the network’s ongoing reveal of their top players at each position grouping for the 2021 season.
Two Tigers made the list, with Zakoby McClain and Owen Pappoe coming in at #3 and #10, respectively.
The pair has been receiving accolades all offseason following a dominant 2020 campaign that saw the pair both land in the top 25 in tackles.
