Over time, Alabama has become the winningest program in the conference, with 30 total titles and 11 since the SEC championship game was formed in 1992. The Crimson Tide will strive for their 31st total title on Saturday versus the Georgia Bulldogs, who take second place in the all-time history books, with 15 SEC titles to their name.
