The Florida Gators are your SEC East champions.
On Saturday afternoon, Florida punched their ticket to the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta by defeating the LSU Tigers with an incredible goal line stand.
LSU, trailing 16-10, had the ball at the one-yard line on fourth-and-goal.
The Tigers handed the ball to running back Derrius Guice, who attempted to dive over the pile and into the endzone. Unfortunately for LSU, the Gators came up with the big stop as time expired.

The Gators couldn’t be happier with the result, especially since this was initially supposed to be a home game before it was postponed due to Hurricane Matthew.
Florida will now face the Alabama Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship Game on Saturday, Dec. 3 at 4 p.m. ET.
