A wild day in the SEC yielded just one postseason guarantee: Georgia returning to the conference championship game for the fourth straight season.

The league confirmed Georgia’s spot in the Dec. 7 title game in Atlanta, shortly after No. 15 Texas A&M’s 43-41 loss to Auburn in four overtimes. The Aggies were one of three top-15 SEC teams to lose on the road to unranked foes on Saturday, as No. 7 Alabama lost 24-3 at Oklahoma and No. 9 Ole Miss fell to Florida 24-17.

No. No. 10 Georgia will face the winner of next week’s game between No. 3 Texas and Texas A&M in College Station. The Longhorns and Aggies haven’t met since 2011, when they were both members of the Big 12. Texas defeated visiting Kentucky 31-14 on Saturday, and the Horns remain the only one-loss team in the SEC.

Georgia, which has lost to Alabama and Ole Miss on the road but has wins against Texas and No. 11 Tennessee, defeated UMass 59-21 on Saturday at Sanford Stadium.

The Crimson Tide started the day needing to beat Oklahoma and Auburn and No. 23 Missouri needed one win in its last two regular season games to punch their ticket to Atlanta. (Missouri won 39-20 at Mississippi State on Saturday.)

Georgia lost to Alabama in the 2023 SEC title game, costing the Bulldogs a spot in the final four-team College Football Playoff.

Asked about Georgia’s path to the SEC title game after the UMass game, Bulldogs coach Kirby Smart said he was thinking exclusively about next week’s regular-season finale against visiting Georgia Tech.

Georgia won the SEC title game in 2017 and 2022, while falling in 2018, 2019, 2021 and 2023.
