Or will a playoff system really be the great equalizer that most outside the south hope for?

No they will just bitch about the 4 selected when the SEC continues to push their shite in.

As long as LSU doesn't have to play the same team twice in a season, Bama doesn't have to play in the Sugar Bowl, Florida has Tebow, and Auburn gets to play Oregon, the SEC should be just fine.

We'll see 2-3 SEC teams every few years in the playoffs. Total domination

And Arkansas has an OOC only schedule.

To answer OP, yes we will dominate.

Uh.. They had that. See college football pre-1998.

The SEC will both make and win the title game plenty.

Expecting to win it a bunch of years in a row is pretty unreasonable.

The SEC streak came about not only because the SEC was the best conference but also a lot of good luck involved as well (such as 2 undefeated teams not shutting out 1/2 loss SEC champs)

I would also stop dreaming about getting multiple teams in.

The SEC will get 1 team as a virtual lock every year, however it will be a very rare occasion for 2 teams from the same conference to make it, any conference.

It will happen sometimes, but it will be the exception not the norm.

I don't think the committee will allow it most years...I think very rarely will 2 SEC teams get in and 3 teams never...if the BCS system was choosing the 4 teams then maybe, but I think the selection committee will be much more political than advertised...

As I posted before, it'll take a 1-loss SEC team that didn't play in the SECCG to make it.

I don't trust humans. They should do the top 4 in the bcs. The college football world is scared.

I think the extended season will make quality depth even more important so we may have an even bigger advantage.

Going to be much tougher because most years the SEC should get two teams in, but the selection committee will doing everything in their power to keep it to one SEC team. Book it.
