The SEC is the best conference in the country. Full stop. They’re
deepest at the top, they recruit the best, but most importantly the bottom
doesn’t drop off the face of the earth. The level of recruiting is the
difference top to bottom with all but Vandy and Missouri finishing above 200,
where the entire B1G West and half of the ACC fail to meet that standard. It’s
not merely the conference that has both participants of the 2017 NCG, but it’s
the best top to bottom.
The average
power rating for the SEC squads is 10.59.
The average
power rating for the SEC East squads is 8.11.
The average
power rating for the SEC West squads is 13.08.

Georgia, Alabama, and Auburn headline the SEC again
and for good reason. All three recruit at a level that no one, but A&M, can
compare to. Georgia brings back at 50% of it’s production at all five levels,
and the Alabama schools bring back at least 50% in 4 of 5 categories. On level
two LSU, MSU, USC, and UK all bring back a bunch of production and should
provide stiff challenges to their respective divisional incumbents. On the
bottom, only Vanderbilt and Tennessee are bad, but Tennessee has talent, and
Vanderbilt is an academic institution (shrug emoji).
