Despite losing a Heisman Trophy winner in running back Derrick Henry and several other key players to the NFL, the Alabama Crimson Tide are listed as a +175 favorite (bet $100 to win $175) to win their third straight SEC Championship Game at sportsbooks monitored by Odds Shark.
The defending national champions beat the Florida Gators and Missouri Tigers by double digits as double-digit favorites in the past two title games.
Last year, the Tide won the SEC West Division by one game over the Ole Miss Rebels with a 7-1 record after losing to them 43-37 as nine-point home favorites in their third game.
