The Florida Gators are currently preparing for a clash with the Iowa Hawkeyes in the Outback Bowl. Before Florida can move onto the next chapter of the season, however, they must revisit what’s already transpired.

After winning a second consecutive SEC East title, six different players were honored as members of the 2016 All-SEC Teams.

Florida finished the 2016 college football regular season at 8-3 overall and 6-2 in the SEC. Florida reached the SEC Championship Game for the second consecutive season and finished two games ahead of the No. 2 team in the SEC East.

In order to achieve that extraordinary success, the Gators needed individual players to rally and build around as the season progressed.

Florida enters its bowl game against Iowa with an 8-4 overall record after dropping the SEC Championship Game. The fact that the Gators got to Atlanta is an achievement unto itself, however, and the voters seemed to agree.

The question is: who were the six individuals who were honored for their outstanding seasons in Gainesville?
