The SEC Championship isn't a bowl game.
It's a postseason ban, not a bowl ban. That being said, we are eligible as long as the appeal is pending. That also being said, we can win the east while ineligible for the postseason, we just wouldn't get to play in the championship game.

Pretty sure, given what BHam did to UF in 90 or 91, that the SEC home office controlled by the REC will not allow Mizzou into Atlanta unless it benefits Bama somehow. And it might but it's a double edged sword.
Mizzou would be the easiest opponent Bama could hope to face in Atlanta but the optics would be bad in the eyes of the national media.
Also, and this could very likely happen, LSU could win the West (I think they will) and BHam then would weigh how a Mizzou matchup would affect the optics as well ... even if LSU mudholed Mizzou. The REC will not do anything to help LSU as far as potential seeding is concerned.
Secondly, Mizzou is still likely to lose to UGA and Florida imho, which makes all of this a mute point.
