re: Who is the SEC coach of the year so far?

My list and order, and explanation why:

1. Saban - Undefeated, keeping the team motivated after back to back NC's and likely headed to an undefeated season.

2. Pinkel - Probably the least talented of the three teams listed here, and doing the most with them.

3. Malzahn - Doing an outstanding job and worthy of top 3 consideration, working with one of the higher ranked classes, shouldn't be a total shock that they have only one loss and can finish with probably just 2 during the season.
