In 91 years of being played, the Sugar Bowl has featured an SEC team in all but 12 matchups.

The matchup this year between UGA and Ole Miss is just the 4th ever SEC vs SEC Sugar Bowl, and Ole Miss is the only team to play in more than one of those games going 1-2 in the previous 3.

The only previous SEC vs SEC Sugar Bowl rematch was in 1960 with Ole Miss avenging its regular season loss to LSU 21-0 to claim a share of the National Championship.

Ole Miss will play in its 11th Sugar Bowl, aiming to improve its 6-4 record. Georgia will be playing in its 13th Sugar Bowl, aiming to improve on its 5-7 record. Fans of both schools love going to New Orleans. I lived there for thirty years and have enjoyed both Sugar Bowls and Super Bowls there.
