Possible all SEC national championship

This year seems like it could be a great year for a few SEC teams and I think we could get 2 in the playoffs. Lets say UGA gets real lucky, doesn't Richt anything and goes undefeated and LSU goes undefeated too. At the end of the game LSU wins 28-24. Do any of yall think both could go to the playoffs and ultimately meet each other in the National Championship game?

If every other conference champion has more than 2 losses then yeah.

The media & voters would never let this happen.

There's a reason I said IF and it is possible.

No. The seccg would act as a playoff for the playoffs.

No conference will have 2 in the playoffs
Further, this year 2 conferences could be left out entirely if Notre Dame makes enough noise

SEC will never ever ever ever have two teams in a 4 teams playoff.
It was designed this way.

which looks very possible right now

The playoff system was set up specifically to prevent this from happening.
The playoff teams are already determined:
SEC champ
B1G champ
PAC12 champ
Highest ranked team out of Notre Dame, Big12 champ and ACC champ

This.
Why does this board keeps bringing up 2 SEC teams in the playoffs? It was literally designed to make sure 2 SEC teams meeting for the championship never happens again.

I guess all the other teams got tired of SEC dominance, thanks everyone for answering the question.

Not possible, but it's a nice thought.
A&M, LSU, Ole Miss, and Georgia all look mighty strong, albeit very early.
The other teams playing at this level (so far) are: Alabama, Ohio State, Michigan State, Florida State, Notre Dame, TCU, Baylor, Oklahoma, and UCLA.
Darkhorses: Clemson, Oregon, USC, Arizona State, Arizona, Georgia Tech, Tennessee, Miss St, Auburn, Miami, Stanford, BYU, Michigan....

Could easily happen. If Bama wins out and LSU beats OM for their only loss then you'd have a 3 way tie in the West with win/loss of their East division opponents as the SEC tiebreaker. LSU's east opponents are SC and Florida (usually solid, but SC may win 2 SEC games this year). OM's east opponents are Vandy and Florida (with Vandy likely winning 2 or less SEC games). Bama's east opponents are Georgia and Tennessee (both likely to finish in top 3 in east).
That would send Bama to SEC for West and, if UGA wins out, UGA to SEC for east. If UGA beats Bama then they would be a one loss SEC champ and you'd have two possible West teams with only one loss too (LSU and OM). Highly possible that one of them makes top 4.
If Bama beats UGA then you would have a one loss Bama team as SEC champs and still have 2 teams (LSU and OM) with one loss each.
If UGA beats Bama in regular season and faces LSU or OM in SEC, then likely only winner of that game makes it in final 4 b/c it will mean Bama has at least 2 losses (making OM's win not quite as impressive).
There are tons of scenarios, but I could see 2 SEC teams make it.

It would take a 2011 type year with Bama involved.
The ONLY possibility this year is from the SEC, is 2 West teams. And neither Ole Miss or LSU have the blueblood name to pull it off.

Almost none of those teams have a chance anymore

Won't happen. Only one SEC goes....if one goes. There is a better chance that no SEC team goes than two.

Seriously? Auburn? Come on now. You guys better win a SEC game before you laugh at anybody else, don't you think?
