The Georgia Bulldogs enter next year's college football season with lofty expectations. Head coach Kirby Smart and his Bulldogs roster are eyeing a potential National Championship bid in 2021 with 12 starters returning from last year's squad that finished No. 7 in the top-10 rankings.

With such lofty expectations, Georgia is being disrespected by the latest college football odds on FanDuel Sportsbook. Currently, the Bulldogs have odds set at +180 win win the 2021 SEC Championship, well behind the Alabama Crimson Tide who are favored at -150 odds.

Georgia SEC Championship Odds

This past month, Georgia enjoyed the best draft class in program history after seeing nine different players called in the 2021 NFL Draft. Still, this team is loaded with returning talent at the major positions including the 2020 emergence of quarterback JT Daniels.

Daniels and the Georgia offense finished strong last year with the transfer throwing for 1,200+ yards and 10 touchdowns in just four games. The Bulldogs' offense is deep with young talent at receiver as well, including Kearis Jackson and George Pickens, who enter their junior and sophomore campaigns, respectively. The pair caught 72 passes and 9 touchdowns in 2020.

On defense, Georgia brings back the second-ranked defense in the SEC last year after giving up just 321 yards per game in 2020. It should be a fun year for Georgia fans despite the disrespect from oddsmakers.
