What if we lose Saturday and both Tennessee and Arkansas win. Do we lose the 3 way tiebreaker? Trying to figure out if there is any possible way for us NOT to get a double bye. Obviously, I'd rather get 3rd and play Kentucky in the semis than Florida, but curious if we could finish 5th

2. Three-Team Tie (or more). When three or more teams are tied, the following procedure will be used
in the following order until the tie is broken. If two teams remain tied after a tiebreaker provision, the
two-team tiebreaker formula will be used.
A. Best winning percentage of games played among the tied teams (Example: Team A is 3-1, Team
B is 2-2 and Team C is 1-3 - - Team A would be seeded highest, Team B second-highest and
Team C lowest of the three).
Tennessee - (2-0)
Arkansas - (1-2)
Georgia - (1-2)
We would be last because UT would get #3 over both Arkansas and UGA. Since Arky and UGA split the two games, it goes to record against #1 Florida. We both lost to them, so then it goes to #2 Kentucky. Arky swept them, and we lost to them so Arkansas would get the #4 seed and we would get #5 seed.

If we would have beaten Arkansas on the road or Auburn at home, there would be a good chance we could beat LSU and then be #2 seed unless Kentucky beats Florida.

3 seed might actually be better. We would likely play the #6 seed in the Quarters then the 2 seed anyways. 6 plays 11 in the 2nd round, which right now is Missouri and Bama. I wouldn't mind being 3rd and playing one of them in the quarters....
