Bulldogs Early Favorites

Oddsmakers are siding with the two-time defending National Champions in the early Georgia vs Alabama odds. UGA is priced as a favorite over the Crimson Tide after DraftKings released the opening SEC Championship Game odds.

It isn’t hard to see why oddsmakers love Kirby Smart’s team here, as the Bulldogs are 9-0 on the season and haven’t lost a game since 2021. When UGA and Alabama last played in the 2022 CFP National Championship, the Bulldogs won 33-18 for their first national title since 1980.

Alabama, on the other hand, has suffered an upset loss this season at the hands of Texas back in Week 2. The Crimson Tide have been near unstoppable since then, however, racking up eight straight victories, including a 49-21 win over Kentucky in Week 11.

This will be Alabama’s first SEC Championship Game appearance since 2021, while UGA is appearing in the title game for the third straight season. In the 2021 meeting, Georgia lost to Alabama 41-24 after beating them in the regular season. Alabama rallied from a 10-0 deficit, led by 421 passing yards and 3 TDs from Bryce Young.

Georgia is still seeking its first SEC Championship win over Alabama under Kirby Smart, and the odds are in favor of the slump ending. The Bulldogs exerted their dominance in Week 11 with a statement 52-17 win over Ole Miss.

How Will the Line Move?

Alabama has been the more public team of late, seeing the majority of spread money in recent games against LSU and Kentucky. Bettors have been less skeptical betting on Georgia, as the Bulldogs didn’t receive the majority of public ATS money against recent opponents Florida and Missouri.

If Alabama continues its upward trajectory and finishes strong against Auburn in the Iron Bowl, we expect them to see the majority of public money. The Tide are rewarding bettors with a 7-3 ATS record, while the Bulldogs have cost their bettors money with a mediocre 3-6-1 ATS mark.

Furthermore, when it comes to Alabama vs Georgia against the spread trends, the Tide have covered five straight as underdogs vs UGA.

Will the Georgia vs Alabama betting line shift dramatically, though? We might see some slight movement toward the Tide, but many experts have these two teams separated by just around a touchdown on a neutral field in their power rankings.
