After the conference was at the center of a chaotic weekend in college football, the Horns have the best odds to win the SEC title game.
After a weekend during which five of the top 11 teams in the AP Top 25 lost, including the former No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide, the No. 1 Texas Longhorns not only head to Dallas as the nation’s top-ranked team for the first time since 1984, but also as the favorite to win the conference title game, according to FanDuel.
Coming off the first bye week of the season, Texas is +145 to win the SEC title in its first season in the conference, ahead of Alabama (+390), Georgia (+450), Texas A&M (+700), Ole Miss (+1000), and Tennessee (+1800).
Remarkably, the Longhorns remain the only undefeated team in the conference with the Crimson Tide losing to the Commodores after beating the Bulldogs last week, the Rebels dropping a game to the Wildcats last week, and the Volunteers losing to the Razorbacks this week. Texas A&M is the big mover with its 41-10 win over then-No. 9 Missouri.
