ATLANTA (AP) — After meeting in the Southeastern Conference championship game, Georgia and Auburn split the top awards on The Associated Press All-Southeastern Conference team released Monday. Record-setting quarterback Drew Lock, from the University of Missouri, was named the All-SEC first teamer at QB, becoming the first Tiger signal caller ever named All-SEC first-team, and the first at the school in that position since Chase Daniel with the Big 12 in 2007.
Auburn running back Kerryon Johnson was picked as the offensive player of the year, while Georgia linebacker Roquan Smith was selected as the top defensive player. Smith was MVP of the title game, coming up with two fumble recoveries in the Bulldogs’ 28-7 victory .
There were no unanimous selections to the team. Fitzpatrick and Auburn offensive guard Braden Smith came the closest to a sweep, each picked on all but one ballot.
