I just think that 8-3 with a 2.22 era is very good but isn't amazing and his hitting stats might be 2nd team All SEC. The SEC is also the stronger conference and Rooker did this with very little protection in the lineup. If you look at total bases then Rooker had over 50 more total bases with 17 more stolen bases. I just think a season that you only see every 10 or so years and never in the SEC deserves it more than this years great dual position guy.
    That's probably a stretch... deichman is considered 2nd best sec hitter and here's his stats... .320/.431/.617. So his ops is 1.048 and McKay's is 1.161. McKay would also lead the sec in Ks (by 5 more) as a pitcher despite pitching 5 less innings than Lange

    Sorry, he would probably be 2nd team but Evan White was at 1B.

    .385/.460/.661 with his ops at 1.121 which is very comparable to McKay. So it would really be close to a toss up on which was 2nd team behind Rooker. White also was on the all Defensive Team so I might could see him getting the nod over McKay.
