SEC announces new tie-breaking procedures for conference championship
SUMMARY: As the 2024 college football season approaches, the SEC has introduced new tie-breaking procedures for its championship game, following the elimination of divisions after Texas and Oklahoma joined. The procedures are prioritized as follows: head-to-head records, common opponents’ records, performance against the best common opponent, cumulative winning percentages, scoring margins, and finally a random draw. If multiple teams are tied for first, all will qualify for the championship, while the SEC champion will host the title game. The 2024 SEC Championship is set for December 7 in Atlanta, with a chance to impact the new 12-team College Football Playoff.

SUMMARY: Carly Madison Gregg, a 15-year-old, is currently on trial in Rankin County for allegedly killing her mother and attempting to murder her stepfather in March. Charged with first-degree murder and attempted murder, she faces up to two life sentences after rejecting a plea deal. The case has garnered national attention due to its shocking nature. It was revealed that Gregg shot her mother after a disagreement, and later shot her stepfather upon his return home. Despite claims of mental health issues, prosecutors argue her drug use indicates willful misconduct. The trial, ongoing this week, involves significant legal controversies and expected testimonies.
