The all-SEC coaches' teams were released Tuesday, and the SEC champion Crimson Tide was incredibly well-represented.

Alabama football led the league in appearances with 10 players (Will Reichard appeared twice) on the first and second teams. The staunch Alabama secondary was especially well-recognized, with three of five defensive backs hailing from Tuscaloosa.

Kool-Aid McKinstry and freshman phenom Caleb Downs were among the first-teamers, along with Terrion Arnold. SEC Defensive Player of the Year Dallas Turner was recognized among linebackers.

On offense, JC Latham was Alabama's lone offensive representative as part of the first team offensive line. Will Reichard, who broke the FBS scoring record this season, was also recognized as the first-team place kicker and second-team kickoff specialist.

Here's a full look at the Crimson Tide players recognized.
