0:00.0	Today's episode of Dog Nation Daily is brought to you by Pella Window and Door of Georgia, viewed to be the best.
0:09.1	Presented by Dognation.com.
0:11.4	This is Dog Nation Daily, the daily podcast for Georgia Bulldogs favorite.
0:15.6	Here's your host, Brandon Adam.
0:17.0	So at the end of SEC Media Days last week, you had the official votes tabulated by all the media members who were there, at least those that filled out their ballot, to be honest with you, I did not do that.
0:26.7	But of all the media members who were there that filled out a ballot, you had a kind of a tabulation of that.
0:32.4	We'll talk more about this later on in terms of the all SEC teams preseason and the predicted order of finish, which I
0:37.7	kind of find to be perhaps most interesting here. And Texas was, I don't know if you say

1:24.9	If you look at the last two seasons, if you look at the last two seasons, the team that has
1:33.4	been the most hyped to win the national championship during that offseason, the most discussed
1:40.2	team during the off season has frankly gone on to win the national championship in each of the
1:48.6	last two years. And I remember this pretty fondly, but not fondly. I remember this, you know,
1:53.9	very well is what I mean to say, because coming off of Georgia's national championship in 2022,
1:58.4	when we really felt like we saw Georgia vanquished a lot of
2:02.3	critics, silence a lot of doubters. That's a really fun storyline and really fun narrative.
