SEC Media Days have come and gone, and with it come the ever important wink wink preseason predictions.
LSU was just barely eeked out by Alabama as the favorites to win the West this season. Alabama got 165 first place votes, while LSU was just behind them with 117. Georgia, unsurprisingly, was picked to win both the SEC East, and the conference as a whole.
