I don't understand why this is so hard for people to figure out. Just read the voting methodology and results in any one of a dozen articles addressing this.
More people voted for Auburn (than Alabama) to win the West and the SEC Championship, but more people also thought Auburn would finish in third place or lower in the division than Alabama. Those lower place votes weighted down Auburn's total. Therefore Auburn received less points in the divisional standings but still received the most votes to actually win the whole thing.
