Alabama opens as a huge favorite over Florida in the SEC Championship Game
Published:
No surprise here, SEC West champion Alabama is a huge betting favorite to take home yet another SEC title next weekend over SEC East champion Florida.
The opening line for the 2016 SEC Championship Game was released Sunday morning and Alabama is favored by 21.5 points in Atlanta, according to Vegas Insider.
The two schools met in Atlanta last season for the league title in a game the Crimson Tide won 29 to 15 over the Gators. Alabama has won the last two SEC titles as well as three of the last four. The most valuable players in those games were running back Derrick Henry (2015), quarterback Blake Sims (2014) and running back Eddie Lacy (2012).
