SEC Media Days are behind us, summer workouts are coming to an end, and fall camp is about to begin. It will be time for college football in 36 days and 43 days until Georgia's first game! That is when it's time to put up or shut up. In the meantime Tennessee fans will still think their high-powered offense will somehow vault them over the Dawgs, South Carolina fans will sing the praises of Shane Beamer and scream that this is the year they put a trophy on their empty shelf, Florida fans are hoping for a record over .500, and Alabama fans will continue to pretend like not having a quarterback doesn't matter.

The new King of the Mountain in the SEC, the Georgia Bulldogs, have been picked to win the SEC East for the sixth time in seven years. Georgia is also the pick to win the SEC Championship for the second year in a row. Kirby Smart and company received 265 out of 291 votes to win the SEC East.
