In anticipation of the SEC releasing how the media predicted the races in the divisions and who will win the championship, let’s look at how badly we’ve guessed.

And let me say this — I think one reason is that too many media members vote based on what they remember of a team from the previous season or how it did in its bowl game.

In 23 years of voting, we were right five times. A 5-18 record puts you right on the hot seat if you are a coach.

Year Pick How fared Winner

1992 Florida Lost SEC title game Alabama

1993 Alabama Lost SEC title game Florida

1994 Florida Won SEC title game

1995 Florida Won SEC title game

1996 Tennessee 2nd in East Florida

1997 Florida T2 in East Tennessee

1998 Florida 2nd in East Tennessee

1999 Tennessee 2nd in East Alabama

2000 Alabama T5 in West Florida

2001 Florida 2nd in East LSU

2002 Tennessee 3rd in East Georgia

2003 Auburn 3rd in West LSU

2004 Georgia 2nd in East Auburn

2005 Tennessee 5th in East Georgia

2006 Auburn T2 in West Florida

2007 LSU Won SEC title game

2008 Florida Won SEC title game

2009 Florida Lost SEC title game Alabama

2010 Alabama 4th in West Auburn

2011 Alabama 2nd in West LSU

2012 LSU T2nd in West Alabama

2013 Alabama T1st in West Auburn

2014 Alabama Won SEC title game

So Florida has been picked the most with eight, followed by Alabama with six and Tennessee with four. We’ve picked the East 13 times to 10 for the West. Twice we picked a team to win that finished fifth in its own division. But we got it right last year.
