SEC Media Days: Sportswriters crown Alabama

Sportswriters packed the Wynfrey Hotel this week for the 2013 edition of SEC Media Days, and this morning, on the final day of the annual media circus, the SEC “Prom King” and his runners-up were selected.

Below is the projected order of finish for each division, as well as the projected conference champion. The parenthetical numbers identify the total number of first-place votes placed for each team.
