DeVonta Smith & Patrick Surtain II are SEC players of the year

The Alabama Crimson Tide are two wins away from capturing yet another national championship. The Crimson Tide capped off another undefeated

The Alabama Crimson Tide are two wins away from capturing yet another national championship. The Crimson Tide capped off another undefeated season on Saturday by defeating Florida in the SEC championship game.

A big reason for that success was all of the stars Alabama has on both sides of the ball. Earlier on Tuesday, the SEC announced all-conference teams, and 15 members of the Crimson Tide received honors.

Also announced on Tuesday were the top honors: offensive and defensive player of the year and coach of the year.

As expected, the Crimson Tide took home those awards, too.

Wide receiver DeVonta Smith was named SEC offensive player of the year.

The 6-foot-1 senior from Amite, Louisiana, caught 98 passes for 1,511 yards and 17 touchdowns. He also rushed for a touchdown and returned a punt for a touchdown.

Smith’s biggest competition for offensive player of the year were teammates Najee Harris and Mac Jones and Florida quarterback Kyle Trask.

Cornerback Patrick Surtain II was named SEC defensive player of the year.

The 6-foot-2 junior from Plantation, Florida, started every game from Alabama in 2020, registering 32 tackles, 10 pass breakups, and one interception.

Alabama coach Nick Saban won SEC coach of the year for the fifth time.

Senior center Landon Dickerson and senior offensive tackle Andrew Leatherwood were both awarded the Jacobs Blocking Trophy.

Jones won SEC scholar-athlete of the year.

Alabama won five of the seven individual awards in the SEC on Tuesday.
