An undefeated season for the Bulldogs puts coach Kirby Smart and his team in prime position for a slot in the College Football Playoff — even with a loss to Alabama on Saturday. The Crimson Tide, however, must escape Mercedes-Benz Stadium with a win over Georgia just to to keep its hopes of making the CFP alive.

The championship weekend meeting between Georgia and Alabama will mark the fourth time the two programs have met on the gridiron to battle it out for the SEC championship. They met in 2012, 2018, and 2021, with Alabama coming out on top in all three matchups. Now, quarterback Carson Beck and his Bulldogs will look to turn the tide as they search out increased momentum heading into the playoff.
