Georgia picked to repeat as SEC champs ahead of Alabama, LSU

Georgia was the clear favorite to win the SEC once again according to the conference media poll, which was released Friday.

The Bulldogs, which are coming off back-to-back national championships, received 62.2% of all first-place votes (181).

Alabama (62) and LSU (31) were the only other teams to receive double-digit first-place votes.

Alabama was also picked ahead of LSU to win the West -- despite LSU winning the division and beating Alabama last season.

In the 31-year history of the poll, only nine times has the media correctly predicted the champion of the conference.
