Southeastern Conference football individual awards

Coaches and media of the Southeastern Conference (SEC) bestow the following individual awards at the end of each college football season.

Player of the Year

A single award was issued for the 1933–2001 seasons, except for 1943 when no award was given due to World War II. Starting in 2002, an offensive and defense award is issued each season; a special teams award was added in 2004. In a few instances, different selectors have chosen different recipients, or two players have shared the award. Several players have won the award twice; Herschel Walker was a three-time recipient (1980–1982).

Only four defensive players were recognized during the single award era: Georgia safety Jake Scott, Tennessee defensive tackle Reggie White, Alabama linebacker Cornelius Bennett and Auburn defensive tackle Tracy Rocker.
