Hot Seat: Kevin Sumlin Doesn’t Have Best Odds to Be First SEC Coach Fired

Hot Seat: Kevin Sumlin Doesn’t Have Best Odds to Be First SEC Coach Fired

Kevin Sumlin and Butch Jones opened the 2017 season tied for the best odds (+140) to being the first SEC head coach fired. Despite a 2-1 start that included a 34-point blown lead at UCLA and two unimpressive victories over Nicholls and UL-Lafayette, Sumlin no longer tops the list.

While the Jones and Sumlin still have the best odds from BetOnline.ag, Sumlin has drafted back to second at +275, while Jones — following their Hail Mary loss to Florida in Week 3 — now sits alone at +150.

Ed Orgeron and Barry Odom are among seven coaches whose odds have increased, albeit very slightly. After opening at +800, Oregon is now +700, while Odom's odds have gone from +1200 to +700.

Elsewhere, aggressive bettors seeking to strike it rich can wager $10 on Nick Saban (+25000) and win $2,500. 

Here are updated odds for each SEC coach (minus Ole Miss interim coach Matt Luke):

Coach Team Current Odds Opening Odds
Butch Jones Tennessee +150 +140
Kevin Sumlin Texas A&M +275 +140
Gus Malzahn Auburn +600 +600
Ed Orgeron LSU +700 +800
Barry Odom Missouri +700 +1200
Bret Bielema Arkansas +1200 +1600
Mark Stoops Kentucky +1400 +1400
Will Muschamp South Carolina +1400 +2000
Jim McElwain Florida +1600 +4000
Dan Mullen Mississippi State +2000 +2500
Derek Mason Vanderbilt +1400 +1200
Kirby Smart Georgia +12500 +5000
Nick Saban Alabama +25000 +5000
