As bowl season inches closer, odds for each game involving SEC teams have been updated as the first game is now just two and a half weeks away.
The SEC is involved in 11 games, but nine of them are within single digit spreads, according to Bovada. Only Georgia (-11 against Texas) and Alabama (-14 against Oklahoma) are more than 7.5 favorites this season.
Alabama’s College Football Playoff line is just the third double-digit margin in the CFP’s history, though underdogs have performed well against the number, and five have even won outright.
Bowl season in general begins on Dec. 15, but the SEC will kick off Dec. 27 with Vanderbilt and Baylor in the Texas Bowl.
