PFF ranks 8 SEC schools in preseason top 25

Eight SEC teams are in PFF’s preseason top 25 rankings. Georgia is PFF’s No. 1 team, but how is the rest of the SEC ranked?

Pro Football Focus ranks the Georgia Bulldogs as the No. 1 team in PFF’s 2024 preseason top 25 rankings. PFF ranks eight SEC schools in the top 20.

“With the best coach (Kirby Smart), the best quarterback (Carson Beck) and one of the best rosters in college football, the Bulldogs are one of the favorites to win it all this season,” said Max Chadwick and Dalton Wasserman of PFF.

The college football season is under two weeks away. Georgia is a preseason national championship favorite according to just about any metric out there. Some experts rank Ohio State higher than Georgia, but that’s the only team we’ve seen ranked over Georgia with much consistency entering the 2024 season.
