If somebody's trying to sell you a ticket to Saturday's SEC Championship game between Georgia and Alabama, take a very close look.

The Bulldogs are hoping for a strong performance, and some help from Florida, to get back into the SEC East title hunt.
We knew Bulldogs fans would be rooting for Florida this week, so the Gators can beat South Carolina and restore Georgia's opportunity to win the SEC East division.

Seth Emerson of the Macon Telegraph reports the two teams are virtual strangers. Neither squad even has a scholarship player from the other's state. Georgia head coach Mark Richt did interview for the Missouri job more than a decade ago, but the teams' only previous matchup was in 1960. At least one Missouri player isn't that impressed with what he's seen of Georgia so far. Defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson told a reporter he watched some of the Georgia-Buffalo game last week, then turned it off. "It's …

Alabama football coach Nick Saban wants Kell defensive back Brendan Langley to don crimson come fall 2013, al.com reports, and when it comes to recruiting, especially defensive backs, Saban usually gets what he wants. Langley, fresh off his eighth-place finish in the state AAAA 100-meter dash, has earned a ranking among the top 20 in the nation at his position in the Class of 2013. The Longhorn multisport star is a high priority for Saban, al.com says, and he has Alabama in his top three schools, along with Georgia and Tennessee.
