Also because of the COVID-19 pandemic attendance at all college football games during the 2020 season was restricted because of COVID-19 social distancing considerations. Limited home attendance requirements and all road games were set with similar attendance caps.[4]

Alabama defeated Florida 52–46 for the 2020 SEC Championship Game.

Nine SEC teams participated in bowl games. Mississippi State defeated Tulsa 28–26 in the Armed Forces Bowl. Auburn lost to Northwestern 19–35 in the Citrus Bowl. Kentucky defeated NC State 23–21 in the Gator Bowl. Ole Miss defeated Indiana 26–20 in the Outback Bowl. Florida lost to Oklahoma 20–55 in the Cotton Bowl. Georgia defeated Cincinnati 24–21 in the Peach Bowl. Texas A&M defeated North Carolina 41–27 in the Orange Bowl.
