One of the most significant showdowns of the 2023 college football season is set Saturday, as the Georgia Bulldogs battle the Alabama Crimson Tide in the Southeastern Conference Championship Game.
The battle for the SEC Championship and a likely berth in the College Football Playoff had a jolting lead-in on Thanksgiving weekend. Georgia edged the Yellow Jackets 31-23 to win for the 45th time in the last 46 games, capping a third straight undefeated regular season. The two-time reigning national championships have now won 29 straight, a new record for the longest winning streak for an SEC team, topping a pair of Alabama runs from 1978-1980 and 1991-1993.
