We could have the best SEC championship game ever
Five things we learned over the weekend:
1. We could have the best SEC championship game ever: In the new BCS Standings Alabama (9-0) is No. 1 and Florida (7-1) is No. 5. Alabama could certainly run the table against LSU, Mississippi State, and Auburn. Florida will be favored in its last four games at Vanderbilt, South Carolina, The Citadel, and at Florida State. If both teams win out we will have, at least on paper, the biggest SEC championship game ever. The SEC has had a No. 1 team in the game before (Tennessee in 1998) but the opponent back then was No. 23 Mississippi State. The best set of rankings came in 2003 when No. 3 LSU met No. 7 Georgia. If that happens, once again the BCS focus on Championship Saturday will be on the SEC title game.
