Why do people keep asking this same question over and over again. It's pretty simple.
Take the premise that Alabama wins out and goes to SECCG.

GA beats TN and beats AL in SECCG, GA is in AL is out.
GA beats TN and AL beats GA in SECCG, AL is in.

TN beats GA and beats AL in SECCG, TN in and AL out.
TN beats GA and AL beats TN in SECCG, AL is in.

Then you have the rest of the country to consider.
Clemson runs the table, they are in.
Ohio or Mich are in
SEC champ is in
What about TCU, if they run the table, are they are in?
What about Pac 12? If USC wins are they in? If Oregon wins are they in?

The committee has always said conference championship is given the most weight, but we know that isn't true because GA got in last year without be champs.

So we know 3 teams, given no meltdowns, will be in. Who will be the 4th? Big 12 champ, Pac 12 champ, or a 1 loss SEC team, GA or TN. If AL loses another game they are out.

First consideration: p5 conference champs
Second: number of losses

Last year GA got in because there was no other P5 champ with 1 or 0 loss. Ya know, kinda like how bama got in in 2017. If OkSt wins the big 12 last year we're sitting at home.
