SEC recruiting: How Georgia and Florida do in retaining their state’s top prospects

When Georgia and Florida met this past October, it was clear Jim McElwain had the superior team.

The Gators manhandled Georgia, as McElwain & Co. cruised to a third consecutive victory against the Bulldogs, 24-10.

Even if Florida closes strong, it’s all but guaranteed to finish behind Georgia. This could be the third season in a row that McElwain’s team finishes outside the top 10 in the 247Sports composite rankings.

And as more and more of the players Will Muschamp recruited cycle out, and more of the Smart players cycle in, Georgia may not have too many losses in Jacksonville.

All rankings come via the 247Sports composite rankings.
