2024 SEC Football Championship Odds – Conference Winner Betting Futures

The SEC is almost always the conference that has the favorites to win the College Football Playoff in it, as this conference has become synonymous with college football success. The 2024 season is no exception, as there are multiple teams in this league that are among the favorites to win it all. Here, we look at the latest SEC championship betting odds, along with the odds to win each of its two divisions this year.

SEC Conference Odds Betting Preview

The new favorites to win the SEC championship are the Texas Longhorns. Texas has lost just once this season, with that loss coming against Georgia in their massive matchup earlier in the season. But the Longhorns have responded nicely to that loss and control their own destiny in the SEC title race.

Meanwhile, Alabama got off to a great start at home in their top-five matchup against the Georgia Bulldogs and were able to hold on to win that game despite a late comeback attempt from Kirby Smart’s team. Alabama’s lone loss came on the road against Tennessee, but the Tide are surging late in the regular season and can’t be counted out despite needing to make up a game to make the conference title game.

Other than those top-two contenders to win the SEC, there are several other squads with a shot to finish atop this conference in 2024. Georgia should bounce back from their losses to Alabama and Ole Miss over the coming weeks. Texas A&M is still in a position to win out and make the SEC title game themselves. And Ole Miss and Tennessee are looking to crash the party thanks to explosive offenses.

Texas is one of two teams to make the leap from the Big 12 to the SEC after last season. The Oklahoma Sooners also joined this conference starting in 2024, though their odds of winning the SEC are much worse than those of the Longhorns. Still, the SEC adding two of the best teams from outside of the conference into the league moving forward will only make things more exciting in the league where It Just Means More.

Are There Divisions In the SEC?

As of 2024, there are no longer divisions in the SEC. That is a result of Texas and Oklahoma joining the conference, but one could argue that it was for the best to ditch the division format in this conference anyway. As it stood, the SEC West was loaded with talent, while the East usually featured Georgia and maybe one or two other good teams per season. Now, we will see a ton of intriguing matchups every week, which is what the people want without divisions to get in the way.

SEC Conference Betting & Handicapping

The SEC has become a high-scoring conference over the last few seasons. It isn’t that there are bad defensive players, it is just that there have been a lot of great skill position players and a lot of aggressive head coaches, especially with guys like Lane Kiffin now in the mix. There are a lot of teams that really like to score points and put up stats and that has been a real big departure from the old defensive slugfests that we used to see around the league. Even a team like Alabama has become more of an offense-first program.

Life in the SEC is tough week in and week out, as you never really get a break from facing talented players, but there are some teams that are clearly at the bottom of the league and those can be some interesting games to handicap. Some teams thrive in a big underdog role and do well to keep games close. Others get blown out regularly because they provide very little resistance.

Now, with Texas and Oklahoma as members of the Big 12, handicapping this conference gets more interesting. How will those newcomers adjust to life in the SEC? How will the existing members of the conference perform in games against those new foes? All of those questions will be answered in the near future.
