Predictions, picks and how to watch SEC title game

It’s conference championship week in college football, and two SEC powerhouses will meet in the conference title game with No. 1 Georgia battling No. 8 Alabama in a big-time showdown in Atlanta.

The defending back-to-back national champion Bulldogs remain perfect heading into Mercedes-Benz Stadium, and are one win from their second straight SEC title and locking up the No. 1 spot in the College Football Playoff. The Bulldogs remain one of the best teams on both sides of the ball, entering Saturday averaging 39.6 points per game (eighth in FBS) while only giving up 15.8 points per game (sixth in FBS).

Alabama is back in the SEC championship game after missing out last season. Not only do the Crimson Tide enter Saturday undefeated in conference play, but they are coming off a thrilling last-minute victory against rival Auburn to keep their College Football Playoff hopes alive. Now, a win against Georgia could mean a chance at the national championship.
