Kirby Smart successfully reloaded after losing 15 players to the NFL Draft off Georgia's national championship team. The Bulldogs are positioned to repeat as champs. Josh Heupel has Tennessee in playoff contention in his second year on the job. LSU won the SEC West in Brian Kelly's first season, a rapid ascent considering the Tigers had a makeshift roster as recently as January.
These three coaches form the shortlist of candidates for SEC coach of the year.
On this episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and John Adams debate the merits of each before making a selection that's subject to change based on how the next few weeks unfold.
Later, they supply a couple of names for consideration for SEC "Turkey of the Year," and they re-examine the debate of whether Lane Kiffin should job-hop from Ole Miss to Auburn.
Finally, they deliver their Week 12 picks against the spread!
