Georgia football faces prediction to fall in SEC championship

Summary

CBS Sports analyst Brad Crawford forecasts that Georgia will lose to South Carolina during the upcoming 2026 season. Georgia, aiming for a third consecutive SEC championship, is expected to finish the season with an 11-1 record, including 8-1 in SEC play. South Carolina, having struggled last season, is seen as a contender for an upset, despite their previous performance of 4-8 in 2025. Meanwhile, Georgia is projected to still reach the SEC championship game against the Texas Longhorns but is predicted to lose. Concerns arise regarding the benefits of competing in the SEC title game for playoff positioning, as Georgia may secure a No. 5 seed for the College Football Playoff.
