The Southeastern Conference announced its 2020 preseason coaches All-SEC Football Team, featuring eight Florida Gators among the three tiers of teams used in the rankings.
Florida features two players on the first team, with quarterback Kyle Trask and tight end Kyle Pitts getting the nod from fellow SEC coaches. However, the Gators failed to place a defensive player on the First Team.
The second team, however, has a trio of Gators defenders on it, with linebacker Ventrell Miller, along with defensive backs Kaiir Elam and Marco Wilson receiving support. Much like the dearth of defense on the first team, there is a noticeable absence of offensive players on the second.
Another triad of Gators athletes made the third team, this time with a bit more diversity. Kadarius Toney gets the nod for his all-purpose play, while defensive lineman Zachary Carter and place-kicker Evan McPherson round out the members of UF’s squad on the 2020 preseason coaches All-SEC Football Team.
The full poll results can be viewed below.
