It’s time to take a new look at the odds for the SEC Football Championship! Due to COVID-19, there is a new schedule recently released by the SEC. Gone are the puff games used to build winning records.
Those games have been replaced with battles against previously unscheduled SEC foes.
It’s a trimmed-down schedule with some twists – but one thing remains the same – Alabama is the favorite to win the SEC Championship outright. Alabama and Georgia seem to be the contenders with a few other obvious programs coming in +1400 and lower.

2020 SEC Championship Top Contenders
Alabama Crimson Tide -130
Georgia Bulldogs +240
LSU Tigers +700
Florida Gators +800
Auburn Tigers +1400
Texas A&M +1400
The eye-opening part of the odds list is the gap between the favorites and the other teams in the SEC. Texas A&M comes in at +1400 with the next school, Tennessee, sporting a +10000. That’s a huge gap!
But it’s also a window for a huge sports betting payoff if somebody takes one of the teams after Texas A&M and that school pulls out the miracle season.
Complete odds with predicted win totals for the fourteen SEC football teams are listed below following schedule breakdown.
