Histori
The SEC is the first NCAA conference in any division to hold a soccer championship game that is exempt from the NCAA limit on regular season contests. Such games are made possible by two separate developments. The first came in 1987, when the NCAA membership approved a proposal sponsored by the Second Division of the State Athletics Conference and the Intercultural Intercultural Association allowing every conference with 12 soccer members to be divided into divisions and establishing a championship match between the division winners. The SEC took advantage of this rule by adding the University of Arkansas and the University of South Carolina in 1992, bringing the 12th conference membership, and dividing it into two divisions of football. This format has been adopted by other conferences to decide on their football champions (the first being Big 12 in 1996).
The first two SEC Championships were held at Legion Field in Birmingham, Alabama. From 1994 to 2016 the match was played at Georgia Dome in Atlanta. With Georgia Dome scheduled to be unloaded after the 2016 season, the SEC chose to retain the title game in Atlanta on the Georgia Dome substitute, the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. This game will be played in the new stadium until 2027.
In 2016, Alabama and Florida meet in the SEC Championship Game for the ninth time in the history of the game twenty-five years, the record for the most times that two teams have faced in a championship game. And at least one of these two teams has qualified for the game in 14 of 25 seasons. The only other fight in the SEC Championships played more than twice is Georgia and LSU, which have been played three times. Alabama have faced Florida in nine of their eleven SEC Championship Game appearances. In addition, the 2009 game marked the second year in a row that No 1 (Florida) and No. 2 (Alabama) team ranks in Poll AP meet in SEC Championship match. 2009 is the first time every conference championship matches featuring two unbeatable teams. Alabama won 32-13 and earned a place in the 2010 BCS National Championship Competition, which then won it as well.
Auburn and Missouri meet in the 2013 SEC Championship Game (in the 2nd year of Missouri at the SEC). Auburn won the match 59-42, breaking the previous record by 56 points for most points scored by one team in the SEC Championship Game (previously set by Auburn in 2010).
In recent years, the game has been dubbed the "national semifinal" for college football. Games 2008, 2009, and 2012 are basically national semifinals, as both teams participating virtually guaranteed a place in the BCS national championship game with a win. The 2013 game was not considered that way at the time of the match, but the results of other games later on meant that it was effectively a semifinal like that.
Between 2006 and 2013, the winners of the SEC Championship Championship continued by playing at BCS National Championship Game eight years in a row, posting a 6-2 record in the match. Since 2014, the SEC Football Championship champions have continued to appear in Playoff Football College every season.

Results by team
- Kentucky, Ole Miss, Texas A & amp; M, and Vanderbilt have not appeared in the SEC Championship Game.
Appointment home/away
Teams designated as "home" teams alternated between division champions. The appointment goes to the Eastern champions in even-numbered years and the Western champions in odd years.
After the 2017 contest, the designated "home" team is 15-11 overall in the SEC championship match.
In 2009, the Western division champion, Alabama, was the home side, ending a streak in which the West SEC team wore white T-shirts in nine consecutive SEC Championship Games (2000-2008). This is because LSU has represented the Western division in the previous four seasons that the Western division champions are the "home" team, and LSU has traditionally opted to wear a white shirt for the home game. In addition, for the next three years (2010-2012), East representatives are wearing their home shirts because in 2011, LSU again represented the Western division.

Selection criteria
The division standings are based on the team's overall conference record. The rules of the SEC Commissioner require that every football team play all eight matches of the conference in a season in order to qualify to compete for division titles and play in the SEC Championship Game. Often, two teams or more are tied for the best record in their division and each team is recognized as a division champion. However, a tiebreaker is used to determine who will represent the division in a championship game.
Two-team breaker procedure
- Head-to-head competition between two bound teams.
- Team record tied in division.
- Records against teams in the division with the best overall conference record (division and non-division) and proceed through the division. Some bonds in the division will be decided from beginning to end.
- Complete record vs. all non-divisional opponents.
- Complete recording vs. all non-divisional teams are public if any.
- Record common, non-divisional opponents (if any) with the best overall conference records (divisions and non-divisions) and continue through other non-divisional teams based on their orders completed in their divisions./li>
- Best cumulative conference winner participation from non-divisional opponents
- Inverted coins from bound team
NOTE: Although all division rivals meet during the season and NCAA overtime is played if there is a tie match, the SEC has a provision if the match ends with a tie under NCAA Rule 3-3-3 (c) and (d), Snooze Match, or if the two bound teams do not play an official match due to the weather, which is possible because many of the conference teams have a game that is affected by hurricanes. Thus, the SEC rules still contain the remaining procedures if they occur.
Three or more team procedures
(After the tie is reduced to two teams, go to the two-team tie-breaker format.)
- Combined head-to-head notes between teams that are bound.
- Team record tied in division.
- Records against teams in the division with the record of the best overall Conference (division and non-division) and proceed through the division. Some bonds in the division will be decided from beginning to end.
- Complete record vs. non-division teams.
- Complete recording vs. all non-general division teams.
- Record vs. general non-division teams with the best overall (divisional and non-divisional) Conference records and proceed through other non-divisional teams based on their orders completed in their divisions.
- The best cumulative winning partition winner of a non-divisional opponent (Note: If two non-divisional team opponents have the same cumulative record, then a two-team tiebreak procedure applies.If four teams are tied, and three teams are not opposed -divisional has a record The same cumulative, three-team tiebreak procedure will be used starting with # 1
- Inverted coins from teams tied with teams with strange results to representatives (Example: If there are two teams with a tail and a team with heads, the team with the head is representative)
Winner bowl performance
Currently, SEC champions play in Sugar Bowl unless they have been selected to play in the semifinals of the Football College Playoff semi-final. In the era of the SEC Championship Games, eleven game winners have won national titles (directly or together), with thirteen SEC teams winning the overall national title, including seven consecutive titles from the 2006-2012 season. There were two occasions when the SEC champions advanced to the BCS or CFP but lost to other SEC teams that won the national championship: In 2011 LSU won the SEC Championship Championship and advanced to the BCS National Championship Competition which they lost 21-0 to fellow SEC Member Alabama, and in 2017 Georgia won the SEC Championship Game and advanced to the College Football Playoffs, defeating Oklahoma in the semi-finals and progressing to the final of the CFP, which they lost 26-23 to SEC members Alabama.
