Sad News painful action Auburn Tigers just confirm removed from All champion due to……..
Outside of fellow Heisman Trophy-winning quarterbacks Johnny Manziel and Tim Tebow, former Auburn football dual-threat star Cam Newton dealt with the most media pressure during his playing days. Newton, the 2010 Heisman Trophy winner and leader of Auburn’s last title-winning team, faced immense pressure as the first overall pick by the Carolina Panthers in the subsequent draft. Already on the heels of a well-documented college career, Newton mostly shined at the next level, winning an MVP and earning three Pro Bowl nods.
Newton last played in 2021 and has since transitioned into media, hosting his own podcast titled “4th & 1.” Newton has done well as a media talking head but also believes he can lend a hand to the new crop of passers in the NFL, mainly current Panthers signal-caller Bryce Young. On Tuesday, according to NFL insider Ari Meirov, Newton has “made himself available as a resource for guidance” to Young this offseason.
Georgia received 3,330 polls points overall, ahead of Texas (3,041), Alabama (2,891), Ole Miss (2,783), LSU (2,322), Missouri (2,240), Tennessee (2,168) and Oklahoma (2,022). Texas A&M (1,684) leads off the second “half’ of the SEC projections in ninth, with Auburn (1,382), Kentucky (1,371), Florida (1,146), South Carolina (923), Arkansas (749), Mississippi State (623) and Vanderbilt (293) rounding out the field.
SEC media has gotten its preseason pick correct only five times in the last 10 years. Alabama was picked to win the SEC in 2014 and every year from 2016-22 — and won the title in 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020 and 2021. Auburn was the preseason pick in 2015.
