Ranking the 10 best football players in the SEC

Even in a league as deep and talented as SEC football, talent finds talent.

Maybe that's why Alabama and Georgia combine to have six of the top 10 overall players in the league, regardless of position, in a poll of 17 experts who cover the league for the USA TODAY Sports Network.

The Crimson Tide placed four players on the list. Georgia landed two, with the two schools that played in last season's national championship game combining to have the top four. Tennessee also placed two players on the list.

A total of 35 players from 11 schools received votes: Mississippi State, Missouri and South Carolina were the only schools without a player to get at least one vote.
