Everything is a wash until you get to the SEC records against east opponents

It's on the SEC website (under Championships, I believe).

Here:

2. Three-Team Tie (or more): If three teams (or more) are tied for a division title, the following procedure will be used in the following order: (Note: If one of the procedures results in one team being eliminated and two remaining, the two-team tiebreaker procedure as stated in No. 1 above will be used):

A. Combined head to head record among the tied teams;

B. Record of the tied teams within the division;

C. Head to head competition against the team within the division with the best overall Conference record (divisional and non divisional) and proceeding through the division (multiple ties within the division will be broken from first to last and a tie for first place will be broken before a tie for fourth place);

D. Overall Conference record against non divisional teams;

E. Combined record against all common non divisional teams;

F. Record against the common non divisional team with the best overall Conference record (divisional and non divisional) and proceeding through other common non divisional teams based on their order of finish within their division; and

G. Best cumulative Conference winning percentage of non-divisional opponents (Note: If two teams' non-divisional opponents have the same cumulative record, then the two-team tiebreaker procedures apply. If four teams are tied, and three teams' non-divisional opponents have the same cumulative record, the three-team tiebreaker procedures will be used beginning with 2.A.);

Example (Western 1 would be the representative)
Tied Teams Non-Divisional Opponents Cumulative Record
Western 1 Eastern Opponents: 14-2
Western 2 Eastern Opponents: 12-4
Western 3 Eastern Opponents: 8-8

It's the SEC Record of the east opponents of each school.

Tennessee is a wash for Alabama/A&M

USCe for A&M
Kentucky for Alabama
Vandy & UGA for Auburn


We figured this out last week for Bama/Aggies/and the rebels. It would be Bama if Kentucky is higher than USCe. Auburn would be screwed because of East records.

So, sounds like Auburn needs for UGA to win out and for Tenn to stumble again?

None of this matters because YAW-Y4W!!!!1111

Its pretty simple really. Your scenario would go to Tiebreaker G. SEC Record of East opponents.

A&M would be Tennessee and SCAR
Bama would be Tennessee and UK
Auburn would be Vandy and UGA

At this moment:

A&M (3-6)
Bama (4-4)
Auburn (3-6)

Bama would win the tiebreaker. If this is how Auburn is going to get to Atlanta, they must cheer for Vanderbilt and Georgia and against Tennessee and Kentucky. I think South Carolina is going to keep A&M from being a factor in this tiebreaker scenario

The best Georgia can finish and this be a factor is 4-4. Same for Vanderbilt. Alabama has a lot of upside with Tennessee, even if Kentucky flames out. If Kentucky were to end up 3-5 and Tennessee 5-3, it would take best case scenario with UGA and Vanderbilt winning every game not against Auburn for Auburn to win that tiebreaker.

Auburn fans have went from firing Gus to playing for the SEC title in their minds because of Miles clock management and beating 2-4 Miss St. Lordy

Auburn should be taking it one Saturday at a time. I would hate for something to happen this weekend which would derail your destiny of being the 2016 SEC champion.
