Most analysts, coaches and fans agree that the SEC East title will come down to the Georgia Bulldogs and Florida Gators this year, with the Bulldogs holding a slight edge in most predictions.
However, Florida redshirt senior DB Marcell Harris isn’t ready to cede the division crown on his watch, especially after the Gators have won the past two SEC East championships.
At SEC Media Days on Tuesday, Harris said he’s sick of the preseason hype surrounding the Bulldogs, who haven’t won a division title since 2012:

The Missouri Tigers won the East in 2013 and 2014 and the Gators advanced to the SEC Championship Game in 2015 and 2016.
This year, though, the World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party on Saturday, Oct. 28, could end up deciding which team will represent the East in Atlanta on Saturday, Dec. 2.
