Looking back: Georgia’s previous SEC championship games against LSU

The Georgia Bulldogs are 1-3 against the LSU Tigers in SEC championship games. Let’s take a look back at the two schools’ four previous meetings in the SEC championship.

Nick Saban and LSU defeated the Georgia Bulldogs and Mark Richt back in 2003. LSU dominated Georgia 34-13. LSU running back Justin Vincent was named as the SEC championship MVP. LSU went on to win a national championship in 2003.

The Georgia Bulldogs got revenge on LSU in 2005. Georgia quarterback D.J. Shockley was named as the SEC championship MVP in Georgia’s 34-13 win over LSU.

In 2011, Georgia jumped out to a 10-0 lead over No. 1 LSU. The Bulldogs lost momentum after LSU safety Tyrann Mathieu, the game’s MVP, returned a punt for a touchdown. LSU dominated the second half and ended up winning 42-10 over Aaron Murray and Georgia.

In 2019, Joe Burrow and a loaded LSU team defeated a stacked Georgia team. Burrow, who won MVP of the 2019 SEC championship, threw for four touchdown passes in LSU’s 37-10 win over Kirby Smart and Georgia. Georgia’s lackluster offensive performance doomed the Bulldogs.
