With spring practices all wrapped up, ESPN reporter Mark Schlabach has updated his preseason poll.

Schlabach isn’t feeling as much SEC fever as other analysts, but he does have defending champion Alabama on top. The way he sees it, along with many other SEC observers, LSU is not far behind and also a top-10 team.

Tennessee just misses the cut of making the Top 10, coming at No. 11, with Georgia not far behind at No. 13.  That’s it for the SEC East in Schlabach’s poll, with Ole Miss (No. 14) and Texas A&M (No. 21) the final two conference teams to make the cut.
