On December 5, 2009, the Eastern Division Florida Gators will face Western Division Alabama at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, GA. This will be the 7th time since the championship began in 1992 that Alabama and Florida had met for this game. Of the 6 match ups to date, Florida has won 4 of them.

The Gators now stand at a season record of 12-0 for the first time in school history (a previous 12-0 in 1995 included the SEC Championship game) and 12-0 overall for only the second time. They're standing now at 22 consecutive wins, giving them the nation's best and the school record for consecutive wins. It's the 4th best record in SEC history, and the longest winning streak in SEC in the past decade and a half. It's also the 3rd longest in the entire nation over the last decade.

The senior Gators are also the winning-est in SEC history, with a 47-6 record. Last week's game was a season best for senior quarter Tim Tebow, who left the field to a standing ovation, tears from him and the crowd, and a hug from coach Meyer. Fans wore black eyepatches to honor his time as a Gator. It was the last game on his home field.

Tebow's final game at home ended with a decisive 37-10 victory over rivals Florida State. The Gators defeated the Seminoles in their previous 2 matchups and it was widely expected that they'd win Saturday.

Last year, the matchup between Florida and the Crimson Tide in this game had the Gators behind by 3 points in the final period, but they turned it around in the 4th quarter to win the SEC Championship. Tebow's rushing and a pass to Riley Cooper in the 4th quarter made the final score 31-20. The Gators had previously won the SEC Championship in 2006 against the Razorbacks.

The Gators are in top form, but the University of Alabama also holds a 12-0 record for this season. So Saturday's game has two undefeated teams competing for the SEC Championship. Alabama's offense is currently ranked at 13th in the country, with rushing 212.9 yards per game. Rushing defense (at 77.1 yards) and scoring defense (at 10.8 points per game) each rank #2 nationwide.

Going into this matchup, Urban Meyer, Gators coach has a 32-8 record, the number 1 career SEC win percentage of coaches who've been in the SEC 5+ years. And Alabama coach Frank Thomas is ranked number three.

Top performing Gators last week will have all eyes on them during this tough matchup. Riley Cooper, Jeff Demps, Carlos Dunlap, Joe Haden and Aaron Hernandez, Brandon Hicks, Ryan Stamper and of course, Tim Tebow, have been responsible for the majority of scoring plays and shut outs. All eyes will be on the Gators to see if they can pull out a 23-0 winning streak against a team that's ranked as high in the Western Division, for the SEC championship and another feather in departing Tebow's cap.

The game is at 4 p.m. Eastern time.

The top ranked football team University of Florida went up against Mississippi in Starkville during Saturday night, and they came away with their very first win against this team since the year 1985, managing to hold on tight to claim a win of 29 to 19, improving their score to 7 and 0 for the season as well as 5 and 0 for the Southeastern Conference. The Bulldogs in Mississippi have moved to 3 and 5 overall, and in conference play their current standings are 1 - 3.

Florida currently owns the longest winning streak in the nation with a total of 17 wins in a row, and they have, in the past, won nine SEC road games straight in a row, dating back to their famous 2007 season. The University of Florida has managed to improve to an overall score of 7 and 0 for the very first time since their season in 1996, and they went 3 and 0 against the SEC West teams for the very first time since the year 1998.

The Senior Quarterback with the team, Tim Tebow from Jacksonville in Florida managed to lead his team with a total of 127 passing yards and 88 ground yards. He also had a 26 yard run for a touchdown that tied the record with Hershel Walker of 49 total rushing touchdowns in the SEC. The redshirt sophomore RB, Chris Rainey, managed to add an additional 90 yards while on the ground as well as a touchdown, and he also blocked a punt on the behalf of the Gators.

The Florida defense managed to step up again, limiting the offense for the Mississippi State team to only two field goals and a grand total sum of 237 yards. They managed to hold the Bulldogs back without a single third down conversion until about midway through the final quarter, and they managed to intercept Tyson Lee, the team's quarterback a total of three times. They also managed to hold the running back Anthony Dixon for Mississippi State to his season low of rushing yards at only 53 yards after he entered into the game averaging at around 116 yards per game.

The Gators managed to open the game by forcing an interception during the third play out from scrimmage. They started the game strong, and it was clear that they were going to do everything that they could to maintain a lead to keep their perfect record going for as long as possible. The Gators offense is still having some difficulties, but as long as the defense continues to step up, they may be able to maintain their streak.

With a lead of 29 to 19, the Orange and Blue managed to walk away with a seventh consecutive win, putting them at 7 and 0 for the season and 5 and 0 in the SEC.
