A linebacker will not lead the Southeastern Conference in tackles, a cornerback won’t top the league in pickoffs and the newly established single-season rushing record might not last long.
There are still more than 200 days until the start of the 2016 college football season, and a lot of players will need time to adjust to the numerous new coaches and coordinators, but the SEC already has some clear front-runners when it comes to who will eventually lead the league in its individual statistical categories.
Granted, a few of them will be obvious, but if nothing these are the established players everyone else will try to top.
