Bryce Young, Alabama’s offense ‘excited’ about challenge versus Georgia’s defense

Fans of the Southeastern Conference have seen some iconic championship matchups, but Saturday is about to deliver a classic from Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Alabama and Georgia will meet for the eighth time in the Nick Saban era and the third time for an SEC Championship showdown. The winner confirms its ticket to the College Football Playoff, while the loser will miss the cut. Georgia is the favorite of national media pundits as it has a defense that’s suffocated opponents all season. Alabama’s defense notched its best performance in the Iron Bowl versus Auburn; however, its offense wants to show it can defeat the Bulldogs.
