Top matchups in SEC football 2024

2023 SEC Championship - Georgia v Alabama

Georgia at Alabama (Sept. 28)

The Alabama Crimson Tide will welcome the Georgia Bulldogs to Tuscaloosa four weeks into the SEC football season. This primetime rematch of the 2023 SEC Championship game will kickoff at 7:30 pm EST and broadcast on ABC.

Quarterback Carson Beck will look for revenge after Jalen Milroe and the Crimson Tide ruined Georgia's undefeated season late last season. Beck threw for 243 yards but failed to throw a touchdown pass in the last meeting between the two teams.

Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe threw two touchdowns in last year's SEC Championship game and got a boost from Alabama's stout defense, which was one of the best in SEC football.

Georgia at Texas (Oct. 19)

Two teams with College Football Playoff expectations will clash just past the midway point of the season.

Texas is a new addition to the SEC after moving over from the Big 12 this year. They are led by quarterback Quinn Ewers, who is on early Heisman Trophy watch this season.

Ewers threw for 3,479 yards and 22 touchdowns last season, with a completion percentage of 69.0%. Ewers is one of the top quarterbacks in the country and will now lead his Longhorns into SEC football for the 2024 season.

Texas at Texas A&M (Nov. 30)

Kyle Field will be rocking when the Texas and Texas A&M rivalry is restored in 2024. The two teams will close out the regular season with what should be an intense and bitter matchup.

Texas will likely be the early favorites, but the Longhorns cannot afford to underestimate an extremely talented Texas A&M roster. The Aggies are led by quarterback Conner Weigman and running back Le'Veon Moss, who are both expected to be top players in the SEC at their positions this season.

Georgia at Ole Miss (Nov. 9)

Two of the top quarterbacks in the SEC will be on display when Carson Beck and the Georgia Bulldogs head to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium to take on Jaxson Dart and the Ole Miss Rebels.

This matchup takes place late in the season and could have massive implications for these two teams that are expected to do well this season. Ole Miss will also attempt to avenge their 52-17 loss to Georgia last season.
