The Georgia Bulldogs are once again kings of the SEC. Sixty minutes wasn’t enough to decide a winner as Georgia and Texas had to go to overtime in Atlanta to decide who would win the conference as well as a top-four seed and a first round bye in the College Football Playoff. Ultimately the Georgia Bulldogs clinched all three with a 22-19 win over the No. 5 Longhorns.
As you’d expect, social media was abuzz after the game. Here are a few of our favorite tweets from the game.
RIP SEC Championship game… used to be one of the 2 best yearly events I had the privilege to cover (Masters is the other) /

UGA should NOT be allowed in the playoffs. They are not the same team without Carson Beck

There have been no less than 6 tackles in this game that would kill the average 20 year old male

2 loss UGA with a backup QB who threw for a whopping 71 yards wins the SEC Championship. Let’s see how the committee will spin this on Sunday.

I apologize to America but the SEC Championship will now be decided by College Football overtime rules

Was hoping the SEC Championship and potential #2 seed and first round bye in the college football playoff would be decided by 2 point conversions.
As God intended.

Would this be the wrong time to mention that Texas played 2 games this season against a current Top 25 team and finished with the same number of wins as Miami? pic.twitter.com/J3ROUZw9JP
