Former Kentucky all-SEC defensive back Van Hiles offers analysis on social media as well as his podcast with former UK all-SEC running back Anthony White. It’s often from a more technical standpoint than others might but he never sugar coats what he thinks.

He believes the SEC Eastern Division is a three-team race this season between Georgia, Kentucky and Tennessee.

“Florida has fallen off. They have lost a lot of talent. They just are not at the talent level they are used to being at,” Hiles said on WLAP Sunday Morning Sports Talk. “But I think they will be batting Missouri for fourth and fifth in the East. I think one, two and three are just above them.”

Georgia is the defending national champion and just had 15 players picked in the NFL draft, including the No. 1 overall pick. However, Hiles does not think Georgia is unbeatable this year.

“I don’t trust Georgia offensively and they lost a lot on defense,” Hiles said. “They will reload but it is hard to replace that much talent immediately even for a team like Georgia.”
