Texas has been predicted to win the 2025 SEC Championship, according to a preseason poll of media covering SEC Football Media Days.

The Longhorns received 96 votes to be crowned SEC Champion on December 6 in Atlanta at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, with Georgia being picked to be Texas’ opponent in a rematch of the 2024 SEC Championship Game. Georgia received 44 votes to win the SEC Championship.

The participants of the SEC Championship Game will be determined during the regular-season conference schedule as the teams with the two best overall SEC winning percentages.

Only 10 times since 1992 (33 years) has the predicted champion prior to the season at SEC Media Days proceeded to win the SEC Championship Game.

The 2024 SEC Championship Game averaged 16.6 million viewers across ABC and ESPN, the fourthlargest audience on record for the game. The overtime win for Georgia, which peaked with 19.7 million viewers, delivered the largest audience of the college football season — surpassing the previous high set by the regular season matchup between the same two teams. Overall, the SEC title game last season delivered the third-largest regular season college football audience ever on the ESPN family of networks.
