2021 College Football Odds & Betting Picks
Best College Football Bets: Conference Champions
Georgia +225 to Win the SEC (DraftKings)
A -450 favorite to take down the SEC East, Georgia is +225 to win the SEC altogether. With Alabama in the SEC West, Georgia benefits from a winnable regular season schedule. The Bulldogs open against Clemson, but then play a relatively easy schedule. Their next most difficult opponent is Florida, while Alabama faces a slew of tough teams. The Crimson Tide face Miami Florida in non-conference play. They also draw road games against Florida and Texas A&M while drawing LSU at home. While a slip-up is more likely for Alabama, the Crimson Tide are -450 favorites to win the SEC West.
Luckily, the Bulldogs also return one of the top rosters in college football. J.T. Daniels will return as the starting quarterback after going 4-0 and throwing for at least 299 yards in every game. He also returns two of his top three receivers while adding former five-star Arik Gilbert as a wide receiver/tight end hybrid. In the run game, Georgia returns their top five running backs and three starters along the offensive line. Their defense only returns five starters, but transfers Tykee Smith and Derion Kendrick help ease the losses. With elite recruiting filling the gaps, Georgia continues to field one of the best rosters in all of college football.
With Alabama replacing six first round picks, Georgia looks like a sharp bet to take down the SEC in 2021.
