3 players who could be X-Factors for Alabama vs. Georgia in the SEC Championship

Alabama is looking to capture its second SEC Championship in three years, and the first under Kalen DeBoer. To do so, the Crimson Tide will have to beat Georgia for the second time this season.

At the end of September, Alabama went on the road and knocked off Kirby Smart's Bulldogs in a game that proved to be the turning point in the Tide's season. It was then that Alabama shook off any leftover embarrassment from losing to Florida State in the opener and proved that it was one of the best teams in the country.

A shaky November that included a close win over Auburn, an 11-point win over LSU, and a loss to Oklahoma, there's a lot of doubt around the country over whether this team has what it takes to be a legitimate contender for the National Championship.
