SEC Championship Game | Georgia vs. Auburn (-2.5) | Saturday, Dec. 2 | 2 PM ET
I try not to be a hater, but I really do not like Nick Saban and couldn’t be happier to see him idle, not fighting for the SEC title this season while Georgia and Auburn battle it out. Do they still deserve one of the Top 4 spots? Probably, but we’ll see what the committee thinks. Yes I know, let’s talk about who is IN the game.

A good friend of mine here in Costa Rica, in my mind, is THE Georgia football aficionado. From his Tucker Tigers to his Georgia Bulldogs through his Atlanta Falcon heartbreaks, he knows his Georgia football. This is what he had to say when I asked him about this one:
“I personally think it will be Georgia, because it is hard for a team to beat a good team two times in a season. Georgia will have a different game plan going into this one. It is going to be very interesting.
Georgia will consider it more of a home game than a neutral field I believe. But then again this is the first time in the Benz for both. I can’t wait.”
Are you all ready football fans, because December ushers in what every football fan craves. Starting with this conference weekend, through the Bowl season, CFP and into the NFL playoffs, I am getting moist just thinking about it!
