FanNation's 2022 Preseason All-SEC List: Aggies in Abundance?

FanNation has revealed its Preseason All-SEC selections.

With the 2022-23 college football season less than two months away, the Texas A&M Aggies are now closer than ever to beginning one of the most anticipated seasons in program history. 

Coach Jimbo Fisher enters his fifth season in College Station with the expectation that anything short of qualifying for the College Football Playoff would be a disappointment. The Aggies have constructed an ultra-talented 2022 freshman class over the past year and are now ready to put out the product on the field.

But along with these newcomers are an elite set of veteran players that will look to be the driving force that gets A&M over the hump. 

Sports Illustrated's FanNation recently revealed its Preseason All-SEC selections and projected finishes for each team. There are clearly some shared high expectations for the Aggies. 

To no surprise, Alabama led all teams with 12 total selections, while Georgia had eight total. 

A&M and Arkansas were tied for third with five overall selections on the list.
