No. 11 Kentucky can clinch SEC East title with win on Saturday

Since the SEC split into divisions in 1992, Kentucky has never finished higher than third place. And they’ve only done that three times in 26 tries.

But that doesn’t even tell the whole story. In those three seasons, Big Blue went 4-4 each time. This means that in 26 seasons of SEC East membership, Kentucky has never finished with a winning conference record.

That streak ended Saturday with the Wildcats’ come-from-behind 15-14 win at Missouri.

The win moved the No. 11 Wildcats to 7-1 overall and 5-1 in conference, equal with No. 6 Georgia, who comes to Lexington on Saturday (3:30 p.m. ET, CBS).

Both teams hold victories over 4-2 Florida, meaning Saturday’s Cats-Dogs game is the SEC East title game. That isn’t a hypothetical projection: the winner of the game clinches the SEC East crown.

It would be Georgia’s seventh SEC East championship and second consecutive, and Kentucky’s first. (Obviously).

The obvious question: could Kentucky actually win this game? And the answer is… maybe!

LSU +14.5. I know it’s Bama but Joey B and Tiger Stadium at night seems too good.

they are without their best D play for the first half... most people are jumping on Bama with that line...We’re about to really find out how good Joeaux is

Im assuming a TD was worth a lot less than 6+ back then
Maybe the nerds can do something useful this week.

Gotta root for Kentucky and Alabama. LSU and UGA having 2 losses and neither making the SEC Title Game makes it really tough for them to put 2 SEC teams in again

Needed Bama to beat Auburn and make it to the SECCG last year and they didn’t which allowed for UGA to make it in after beating Auburn. Not gonna hold my breath on them again.

Any 'Fuck Georgia' decision is beyond reproach Nute.

Kent and Buffalo with entertaining wins

I wouldnt make it out alive walking down the streets in the 1890s... if "not too serious" is lost teeth and basically what amounts to assault then what are we even doing complaining about todays game

FWIW - Kirby Smart believes Kentucky's very good year is due to multi-year recruiting efforts in Ohio.
