Alabama-Georgia Rivalry Returns

For the first time in sixty years, Alabama and Georgia are set to play each other in three consecutive regular seasons, with the last occurrence happening between 1963 and 1965. This rare event will culminate in Tuscaloosa next October, marking a significant moment for fans of both teams. The SEC Championship game, which often features these two teams, didnt exist until 1992. The recent elimination of divisions in the SEC has likely contributed to this new scheduling trend. If the trend from the 1960s repeats, Georgia could be due for a win in the third game of this current three-year stretch, which would also mark coach Kirby Smarts first victory in Tuscaloosa. This renewed regular-season rivalry between Alabama and Georgia is a testament to their consistent dominance in college football.
