The 2013 SEC Football Championship Game is set with the Auburn Tigers facing the Missouri Tigers. The game will be played on Saturday, Dec. 7 at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta (4pm ET, CBS).
Auburn (11-1, 7-1 SEC) won the SEC West with a miraculous, last-second 34-28 victory over then top-ranked Alabama last night. The Tigers will be making their fifth overall appearance in the game and first since their national championship season back in 2010.
Missouri (11-1, 7-1 SEC) clinched the SEC East Division yesterday with a 28-21 win over Texas A&M. The Tigers, who joined the conference last season, are making their first appearance in the championship game.
Auburn and Missouri’s first and only meeting came in the Sun Bowl in 1973. Missouri won the game 34-17.
If Auburn defeats Missouri, there’s a chance they could advance to the 2014 BCS National Championship Game. A loss by either Florida State or Ohio State in their respective conference title games would likely assure Auburn of a trip to the Rose Bowl.
