How successful have LSU and Georgia been over the past two decades? Saturday’s Southeastern Conference Championship Game showdown (3 p.m. CST on CBS) will mark the fifth time the Tigers and Bulldogs have met with the conference title at stake since 2003. In that same span, they’ve only met five times in the regular season. LSU leads the overall series 18-13-1, including a 3-1 record in SEC Championship Games.
