Pro Football Focus senior analyst Steve Palazzolo put together a compilation of the top 101 players in college football ahead of the 2016 season, and the Southeastern Conference generates a good portion of the list.

A grand total of 27 players from the SEC make the cut. That’s … significant.

“With the college game being less quarterback-centric than the NFL, we have some leeway to give positional boosts for certain players who carry the workload for their respective team,” wrote Palazzolo. “The other challenge for the college game is the adjustment for competition, but we also wanted to be careful not to overlook outstanding small-school players. For that reason, the small-schoolers who made the list did so on the strength of excellent grades that were above and beyond their peers, often over a two-year sample.”
