The Daily Hatch

The SEC really did something that I thought was stupid twenty years ago when they put in a championship game, but I was wrong and it has served the SEC well.

[edit] Divisional champions

Since the SEC expanded, Divisional Champions have been crowned. Occasionally, a tie between two or more teams occurs, requiring a tie-break. All teams involved in the tie breaker are considered Co-Divisional Champions, and the winner of the tie-breaker is the division’s representative to the Championship Game. Below is list of all Divisional Champions and Co-Champions; * denotes tie-break winner and subsequent division representative.

^†In 1993 Auburn finished first in the West standings but was ineligible due to NCAA probation and postseason ban. Alabama subsequently vacated the division title due to an ineligible player.
^‡In 2002 Alabama finished first in the West standings but was ineligible due to NCAA probation and postseason ban.
