While the probability is not high it is not impossible

Northwestern is proof a small private school in a sea of big state schools can compete at the highest level. Like Vanderbilt the purple cats had conference titles in the early days of football before vanishing for about 50 years only to resurface in the 1990's and winning 3 B1G conference championships in about 5 years with the one in 1995 landing them in the Rose Bowl.

While it would not happen overnight, if Vandy could string together a few 9-10 win regular seasons they could punch through to the next level and wind up in a SEC CCG. The bigger question is if they could hold it long enough without getting knocked down by a Florida or Georgia. Long term sustained success is by far the more elusive object and that probability would be very low.

That's the problem. They have to catch UF and UG down in the same year.

That's not likely to happen but not unprecedented. How did Arky make it to two SECCGs? No flame. But didn't they catch the West while Bama was down and maybe Auburn was with tatertot?
