The SEC East Division champion will be crowned in an unlikely spot -- Lexington, Ky.

Georgia play Kentucky there next Saturday and the winner will own the East and secure a spot in the conference championship game in Atlanta.

Kickoff has been set for 3:30 p.m. and the game will be televised nationally by CBS.

The Bulldogs beat Florida 36-17 Saturday while the Wildcats defeated Missouri 15-14.

Both Georgia and Kentucky are 7-1, 5-1 in the conference.

The Bulldogs have won eight in a row in the series.

The SEC Championship Game is Saturday, December 1 in Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Georgia beat Auburn in last year’s game.
