Dealing with what we control...
Bama and State to playoffs.
Ole Miss blew it today.
When we handle jackets, we will be highest ranked SEC by far.
Selection committee will put an SEC team in Orange by affiliation. I am confused whether they HAVE to put an ACC team if FSU goes to playoffs?? If not, UGA vs Ohio State game would be solid match up.

State will not make the playoffs unless:
1) They win out
2) BAMA loses
3) Ohio State loses
If BAMA beats barners, and UGA beats BAMA, then the committee is faced with a bit of a dilemma -
1) Take a 2 loss UGA SEC champ - I don't think
2) Take a 1 loss State non-SEC champ over the conference champ - I don't think
3) Leave the SEC out - I think
This assumes State wins out.

Did this change? I know a lot has changed due to the playoffs and I have not followed all the changes, but we used to be affiliated with the Sugar Bowl.
ETA
Just looked and saw that the Sugar is part of the Playoff this year, so the Orange Bowl would get the ACC #2 and a choice among SEC #2, B1G #2 or Notre Dame. GT (If they lose to Florida St.) would be the ACC #2, so I doubt they would pick a Georgia/GT rematch. Now if somehow, GT were to beat Florida State, and Florida State did not go to the playoff, then they might very well pick Florida State and us. I'm still not sold that two SEC teams would go to the playoffs, though.
