Here’s a look at the SEC’s top position groups by team from Week 1:

QUARTERBACKS  — Texas A&M: Sophomore Kenny Hill was one of only three FBS passers to eclipse the 500-yard barrier and did so with a school-record 44 completions.

RUNNING BACKS — Georgia: Todd Gurley’s Herculean 198-yard, three-touchdown effort on the ground was a league best during opening weekend. In the fourth quarter, Georgia scored on three consecutive offensive snaps — Gurley 18-yard run, Nick Chubb 47-yard run, Gurley 51-yard run — to bludgeon the opposition. The Bulldogs finished with 328 total yards on the grounding including 10 plays spanning 10 or more yards.

WIDE RECEIVERS — Texas A&M: During Hill’s record-setting performance, 12 different Aggies caught passes including senior wideout Malcome Kennedy who led the SEC with 14 receptions. A wide-ranging group featuring an ideal blend of speed, athleticism and size, Texas A&M’s starting wideouts caught nearly everything thrown in their vicinity during a smashing of South Carolina.

OFFENSIVE LINE — Alabama: The Crimson Tide gave up a league-low three tackles for losses against West Virginia and provided more than enough time for first-year starter Blake Sims, who wasn’t sacked, to operate. In Lane Kiffin’s debut as the play-caller, Alabama rolled off 538 yards of total offense and 30 first downs.

DEFENSIVE LINE — Mississippi State: This one’s debatable as several teams were solid up front, but the Bulldogs were the SEC’s only squad to post a shutout in Week 1. Mississippi St. limited Southern Miss to just 71 yards rushing on 33 carries. Chris Jones and Nelson Adams posted two tackles for loss and a pair of sacks while Preston Smithp picked off a pass and blocked a kick.

LINEBACKERS — Georgia: Defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt turned the Bulldogs loose in the second half as Georgia gave up just 15 yards of offense and one first down. Linebackers Amarlo Herrera and Leonard Floyd combined for 19 tackles and four sacks.

DEFENSIVE BACKS — Ole Miss: Three of the Rebels’ weekend-high four interceptions came from the secondary including Cody Prewitt’s first of the season. Seven passes defended was second only to Mississippi State’s nine.
