2023 SEC Championship Game comes with unfolding of a legendary rivalry
No. 8 Alabama will take on No. 1 ranked Georgia in the 2023 SEC Championship on Dec 2, from the Mercedes Benz Stadium. The Crimson Tide improved to 11-1 with a 27-24 win over Auburn which secures their spot in the SEC championship. This will the third time these two teams have met in the SEC Championship since 2018 with Georgia having not lost a football game since the 2021 SEC Championship against Alabama. In total this will be the fifth time these programs play championship football in five years.
Georgia has been flawless winning 29 straight regular season games. Along with national championships in 2021 and 2022. With the Bulldogs looking to secure their third consecutive national title what stands in the way of this potential threepeat is a program that fell just short of a threepeat a decade ago.
Alabama has won 10 straight games since that week two Texas loss on the back of Jalen Milroe. Against Kentucky, Milroe became the first Alabama quarterback score three passing and rushing touchdowns in a single game. For these two powerhouse programs, both have legitimate momentum and intriguing history at the championship level. The script for the 2023 SEC Championship has written itself.
