No they are not.

Even if LSU wins the SECCG, UGA is in, and Tennessee would make it over LSU.

There is a precedent, Penn State lost two games, won the conference title and did not make the playoffs, Ohio STate went over them (OSU had 1 loss)

Yes, they are.

Tenn. needs the following teams to lose and not win a Conference Championship to get into the playoffs:
- LSU
- USC
- TCU

Every situation is different. Did Penn State win its conference championship over the number 1 ranked team at the end of the season? No? Then it isn’t the same situation. In 2007 we were told no 2 loss team would play in the BCS CG. But it happened..if LSU does manage to beat UGA the dynamic is very different from the Penn State situation.

Some Cfb analyst yesterday said that LSU has to beat Georgia by a similar amount Georgia beat Tennessee and tennessee beat Georgia by or else it is not comparable

OSU was also selected over 12-1 Wisconsin. Why? Penn St also beat OSU that year. That whole thing was stupid, but UT also doesn’t carry the weight OSU does either
