Najee Harris, Alabama Hang On to Beat Florida in SEC Title Game Shootout

Fans of old school, smash-mouth SEC defenses look away: "It just means more" when it comes to scoring on the big stage.

Running back Najee Harris had 245 yards from scrimmage and five touchdowns as No. 1 Alabama beat No. 7 Florida, 52-46, to win the 2020 SEC Championship Game.

It was the second-highest scoring game in SEC title game history, trailing only the 2013 version in which Auburn beat Missouri, 59-42. The win secures the No. 1 seed in the College Football Playoff for the Crimson Tide, who make their return after missing out in 2019.
