Berry, Moreno unanimous All-SEC picks by coaches
Posted by ESPN.com's Chris Low
Tennessee safety Eric Berry and Georgia running back Knowshon Moreno were the only unanimous selections on the coaches' All-SEC team, which was released Tuesday.
If either one of those players weren't unanimous, I would have some serious questions about the coaches doing the voting -- and I still do.
How can any coach in this league with a good conscience fill out an All-SEC ballot and not have Alabama offensive tackle Andre Smith among his top four linemen? The center position was voted on separately.
It makes you wonder what that coach was watching this season, if he was watching at all or if somebody else filled out his ballot.
Smith is one of the best left tackles the SEC has seen in a long time, and the NFL draft will bear that out come April -- assuming he comes out early.
At least the media got it right in the Associated Press voting, where Smith was a unanimous selection.
It was also noteworthy that Florida quarterback Tim Tebow was not a unanimous selection by the coaches. At least one coach must have voted for Georgia's Matthew Stafford, who also had a terrific season. It wasn't Mark Richt, either, because coaches can't vote for their own players.
Stafford is clearly a more highly thought of NFL prospect, but Tebow was clearly the best (and most valuable) player at the quarterback position in the SEC this season.
