SEC media members predict the Florida Gators will finish third in the East Division behind reigning conference champion Georgia and surging South Carolina.
Seniors Martez Ivey and CeCe Jefferson also were selected as members of the All-SEC first team — Ivey at left tackle and Jefferson at defensive end.
The Gators received four first-place votes to win the East, and even two to win the league. Georgia received 271, South Carolina eight and Kentucky and Tennessee one vote each to win the East.
Media picked reigning national champion Alabama to win both the SEC West and conference title by a large margin.
