But “muh SEC is down this year and should be watching these shite conferences compete for a title from the sideline.”

A lot of conferences other than the SEC owe what success they DO have in the playoffs to just one team:

ACC - 6-6 in playoffs - 6 wins by Clemson
B1G - 3-7 in playoffs - 3 wins by Ohio State
Big 12 and Pac 12 each have 1 win in the playoffs


SEC:
16-5 in the playoffs
9 wins by Alabama
5 wins by Georgia
2 wins by LSU

Every SEC team that has made the playoffs have won a national title

Every SEC team that has made the playoffs has multiple wins (obviously)

Every SEC team that has made the playoffs has a winning record

The SEC is the only conference with a winning record in the playoffs.

If all the non-SEC teams that have won games in the playoffs combined their records together, they still would not have as many wins as the SEC does (combined record of 11-10 for Clemson, Ohio State, Oregon, and TCU) - five less than Alabama, Georgia, and LSU have combined (even if you left Georgia off they'd still only match the number of wins [11] and would have taken 21 games to reach that total as opposed to 15 combined games between Alabama and LSU).
