A few interesting facts that I've read today to go along with the fact that the Vols have been rated in 4 of the 6 BCS top ten rankings since its inception in 1998.
Alabama and Florida played each other in 4 of 5 SEC Championships games from 1992-1996, with Florida playing in all 5 (Arkansas was the West representative in 1995).
However, since 1997, Tennessee leads all conference schools in SEC Championship game appearances. Dispatching with the formality of beating either Vandy or Kentucky, I'm going to list the appearances and include this season.
4 Tennessee '97,'98,'01,'04
3 Auburn '97,'00,'04
2 Florida '99,'00
2 Georgia '02,'03
2 LSU '01,'03
1 Alabama '99
1 Arkansas '02
1 Miss State '98
