The SEC championship picture remains unchanged heading into Week 13, though the odds for the championship winner have slightly adjusted. The race has now narrowed down to four teams: the Georgia Bulldogs, Ole Miss Rebels, Alabama Crimson Tide, and Texas A&M Aggies, all of which still have a chance to compete for the SEC title.
As Rivalry Week approaches, both Alabama and Texas A&M find themselves in control of their playoff fates. A victory for Texas A&M against Texas guarantees their spot in the SEC championship game, while Alabama must secure a win against Auburn to also advance.
On the other hand, Georgia’s hopes hinge on a loss by either Alabama or Texas A&M, while Ole Miss must see both teams lose alongside needing a win over Mississippi State to stay in contention. Notably, Georgia is set to face Georgia Tech, a game that won’t affect their championship aspirations.
Despite not having control over their destiny, Georgia boasts the second-best odds for winning the SEC championship, following Texas A&M. Alabama is just slightly behind in the odds race, with Ole Miss considered a long shot.
As fans prepare for Rivalry Week, the SEC matchups add an extra layer of excitement. Key games on the schedule include Ole Miss at Mississippi State, Georgia against Georgia Tech, and Texas A&M visiting Texas on Friday, Nov. 28. The following day will see Alabama face off against Auburn, alongside several other notable games across the SEC and beyond.
With the championship stakes high, this Rivalry Week is set to deliver thrilling college football moments, keeping fans engaged and hopeful as the season draws near to its conclusion.
