DALLAS — In a week where the temps have been in the upper 90s here in Texas, Alabama came to SEC Media Days packing heat. Georgia will probably be the preseason pick to win the league. Texas and Oklahoma have sucked up lots of preseason oxygen. Even Ole Miss, Missouri and Tennessee have been among the sport’s biggest offseason darlings. But the Tide remain the sun of the SEC, and the league’s solar system will revolve around Alabama until proven otherwise. Despite losing the Greatest Coach of All-Time in Nick Saban, the 2024 Tide have no plans on fading into oblivion with a new sheriff in town...

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay was impressed with what he saw from backup quarterbacks Stetson Bennett and Jimmy Garoppolo during offseason workouts. While speaking to reporters in June, McVay shared his assessment of the two QBs as they get ready for training camp. “They’ve done a really good job. I think Dave Ragone’s leadership from that room has really been on display,” McVay said. “I’ve known Dave for a long time, but seeing the way he commands the room, the clarity, the way that he’s with them every step of the way and how much they trust him and he’s got the credibility from as ...

After Alabama’s SEC Championship upset over Georgia last season, the College Football Playoff committee found itself facing a major decision. It could’ve put the one-loss Crimson Tide, the one-loss Bulldogs or undefeated ACC champion Florida State in the four-team field – ultimately choosing the former. That move led to plenty of debate about whether the four “best” teams or four “most deserving” teams made the CFP. Florida State became the first undefeated Power Conference champion to miss out on the national semifinals, and Georgia didn’t get a chance to defend its two straight titles after ...

DALLAS — How many SEC teams can make the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff this fall? Three? Four? Five? The SEC dominated the four-team field, winning six of the 10 championships, so naturally, the new format has spawned one of the topics du jour at SEC Media Days this week. Every July, the league’s coaches and players alike take to the podium and talk about the ultimate goal of winning a title. Previously, the talk was mostly gibberish for the majority of schools. Yet suddenly, the yearly pablum is no longer nonsense. While the pressure remains the same, more teams now have an oppor...

For multiple reasons, Kirby Smart and Nick Saban will always be compared to one another. The two worked together for years at Alabama, with Saban as the head coach and Smart as the defensive coordinator. And then when Smart left for Georgia, there were plenty of high-stakes matchups between them, mostly won by Saban. The one difference that’s easy to point out is the age factor. Saban recently retired and took over at Alabama in his late 50s. Smart has yet to reach the half-century mark and has already climbed the college football mark, twice. ESPN’s Paul Finebaum believes when factoring in ag...

After Georgia fell short in last year’s SEC Championship against Alabama, one of the big questions was Carson Beck’s future. The Bulldogs quarterback impressed in his first season as the starter and was eligible for the NFL Draft, which featured plenty of depth at the position. Beck announced his decision to return to Georgia in mid-December. But he made the call much earlier than that. Georgia entered the SEC Championship with an undefeated record – and on a 29-game winning streak. That came to an end that Saturday night in Atlanta as Alabama punched its ticket to the College Football Playoff...

While serving as a host and SportsCenter anchor at ESPN, Elle Duncan has worn her Georgia fandom on her sleeve. An Atlanta native, she saw first-hand as her Bulldogs struggled against Nick Saban and Alabama before eventually beating the Crimson Tide for a national title in 2021. Now, Duncan and Saban are co-workers. The legendary coach joined ESPN in March as an analyst, starting with the NFL Draft and this week’s SEC Media Days. Saban has done multiple interviews throughout the week, and he appeared on SportsCenter with Duncan Tuesday evening. After his interview wrapped, Saban decided to hav...

Alabama and Georgia have bigger SEC rivalries to worry about than each other. Both share a dislike for Auburn, while the Third Saturday in October is loved by Crimson Tide fans and the Florida game is circled every year in Athens. But over the years in the SEC, there has not been a matchup with a more consistent big-time feeling than Alabama-Georiga. The chess match of Kirby Smart facing off against Nick Saban certainly played a part. However, Saban is no longer at Alabama and is instead a member of the media. Kalen DeBoer has taken over and personally went further than either Alabama or Georg...
