In this era of bloated conference sizes, none of the other leagues can compete with the depth of the Southeastern Conference. The SEC has the No. 1 preseason ranked team in Texas and four total teams in the Top 10 as well as six other teams landing a spot in the Top 25.

Running back Quintrevion Wisner and offensive lineman were named to the first-team offense, and edge rusher Colin Simmons, linebacker Anthony Hill Jr. and defensive back Michael Taaffe earned first-team defense nods.

Texas A&M football's tight end room struggled in 2024. With new additions and a revamped offensive unit, the group expects a big jump this year.

Preseason projections have the Texas Longhorns among the national title favorites, but a panel of SEC experts flagged the Longhorns as the conference’s most overrated team. CBS Sports’ SEC preview led with a blunt assessment.

Texas is gearing up for a run at the national championship, and the Longhorns' defense will be led by one of the best players in the country.
