2024 SEC Football Championship Odds: Georgia Bulldogs enter season as favorites

The Southeastern Conference welcomes two new programs - the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners - for the 2024 football season, but the Georgia Bulldogs enter the season as favorites to win the SEC.

Georgia won consecutive College Football Playoff National Championship games to cap off the 2021 and 2022 seasons, but they fell to Alabama in the 2023 SEC Championship game.

Who will come out on top of college football's toughest conference in the first season after conference realignment?

Alabama	+750
LSU	+900

The Georgia Bulldogs enter the 2024 college football season as the favorites to win the SEC.

Georgia QB Carson Beck has a year of experience as a starter under his belt - he completed 72.4 percent of his passes for 3,941 yards and a 24-6 touchdown-interception ratio - and the team brought in former Florida running back Trevor Etienne, former Vanderbilt wide receiver London Humphreys, and former Missouri receiver Dominic Lovett to boost the offense.

The Texas Longhorns - new additions to the SEC - are second in the odds. Quinn Ewers returns as the starting QB, and coach Steve Sarkisian brought in some pass-catching transfers to make up for the loss of the team's two top receivers, who entered the NFL Draft.

The Mississippi Runnin' Rebels - more commonly known as Ole Miss - are third in the odds as they also bring back last season's starting QB, Jaxson Dart.

Ole Miss lost star RB Quinshon Judkins to Ohio State in the transfer portal, but they brought in Logan Diggs and Henry Parrish to replace Judkins' production while also improving the talent and depth in the trenches on both sides of the ball - notably landing former five-star defensive lineman Walter Nolen from Texas A&M.

Alabama, who saw legendary head coach Nick Saban retire this offseason, is fourth in the odds. The Crimson Tide hired Kalen DeBoer - who led the Washington Huskies to the College Football Playoff Championship Game this past season - to replace Saban.

The team lost plenty of talent in the transfer portal, but the Tide still have QB Jalen Milroe, who proved last season that he can carry the team at times. The groups of running backs and receivers are young, but with plenty of Washington transfers coming in to join DeBoer, fans will hope things come together quickly in Tuscaloosa.

Fifth in the odds is LSU, who went 10-3 last year and lost star QB Jayden Daniels to the NFL. The Tigers brought in nine transfers, which is a small number compared to rivals who brought in double-digit transfers.

Garrett Nussmeier projects to be LSU's new starting QB, which should lead to a more pro-style offense in Baton Rouge.

Further back in the odds are Tennessee, Missouri, Texas A&M, newcomers Oklahoma, and South Carolina. Teams with odds longer than 100/1 are Kentucky, Florida, Arkansas, Mississippi State and Vanderbilt.
