The five best choices for the SEC's corporate sponsor

Corporate sponsorship is trending very quickly in college football. So much so that it may even be taking over and renaming conferences. In this article, I give some thoughts on my top five companies that would make sense to take over as the main corporate sponsor of the SEC.

Chick-Fil-A

The College Football Hall of Fame is sponsored by Chick-Fil-A in the downtown Atlanta, where the company is also headquartered. Chick-Fil-A has long been a part of sponsorships across college football including The Peach Bowl, SEC Championship Game and the Kickoff Game up until 2023.

Do not be surprised if they take the next step of further engraining themselves into college football, and given their headquarters the SEC would make great sense.

Home Depot

Home Depot has been a long time sponsor of College GameDay, the premier college football kickoff show on ESPN that airs for three hours each Saturday before games begin. It would only be logical that the company may have an interest in furthering their partnership with college football and the SEC specifically. And yes- this is another company headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia.
