All but one features Alabama, I know. But every single one of these games was pretty intense. Most of the rest are pretty forgettable.

1992: ALA-28 FLA-21
1994: FLA-24 ALA-23
1997: TEN-30 AUB-29
2008: FLA-31 ALA-20
2012: ALA-32 UGA-28

You left our Mississippi State vs Tennesse the year they went undefeated and won a National title. MSU held the lead the entire game until the last 6 or 7 minutes when UT scored twice.

^ What a douche bag

No, these are not the 5 best SEC championship games.

Yes, they probably are to you, as an Alabama fan.

You are a homer, nothing wrong w that. I'll give you an example of an "LSU homer" SECCG game that was pretty intense that you probably don't give a shite about. Just like no one gives a shite about the games you listed years later.

-2007, LSU is ranked #1 and loses to Arkansas in triple OT last week of the season...
-Kirk herbstreit announces we are losing our coach leading into SECCG.
-Our starting QB is out for SECCG
-les miles announces he will stay at LSU in an emotional press conference leading up to game
- LSU beats tennesse on a pic 6 (20-14) and goes on to beat Ohio state for the BCS national championship

Or how about LSU beating tennesse in 01 with a backup quarterback keeping them out of the NC.
I'm sorry Alabama was forgettable that year, doesn't mean the teams involved didn't find it "intense", or that it didn't have nc implications

I'm sure every other fanbases that has been involved in an SECCG game has their own stories/memories as well.
UF and Arkansas had a hell of a game in 06 too, when UF went on to win the NC... Douche bag

UT-MSU 1998
LSU 31 #2 UT 20 2001

Based on the last 2 days, I would say:

2016: Sweet 16 Aggy v. Okie

2012 Bama-UGA is definitely the best one from a drama standpoint. 2008 Bama-UF has to be in the top 2-3.

While the OP does seem to be a homer ranking, all of the games involving Bama that were listed did have NC implications. That should increase the magnitude of the game, to a certain extent. Add in that those were fantastic games, well...why would he be wrong?

ROFL @ Lsuchs and MetryTiger in this thread.

The Bible has a good phrase to describe what they are going through these days.

The "gall of bitterness" is upon them.

2001 SEC Championship Game was a far better game than the turnover-prone mess that was the 1997 SEC Championship Game.

2012 and 1992 were the two best. Beyond that I think it's hard to seperate them. A lot of great ones.

97, 98, 06, 07, 08, 13 just off the top of my head.

The 94 game was the most painful loss I've seen up until Kick 6 (maybe even moreso since I was there).
What about Saban processing UT with a backup QB in 01?
