Kalen DeBoer, Jalen Milroe, and Alabama football have another naysayer to let know what time it is this fall.

The Southeastern Conference Network revealed the schools that have the best chances of winning an SEC Championship, yet the Crimson Tide was not first on the list. Georgia, according to ESPN’s Football Power Index (FPI), has the best chances of capturing a conference title at 32.8 percent. Texas, a newcomer to the SEC from the Big 12, has the second best odds at 24.2% as people are excited to see what Steve Sarkisian does in year four. The Longhorns return Quinn Ewers at quarterback and much more talent.

Alabama has the third best odds at 14.4 percent. 

The Tide has one of the most experienced quarterback returning, several talented offensive pieces back, experience players on defense, and a hungry coaching staff. Alabama has not won a national title in three years, so it is eager to show the world it can get back on top.
