Alabama's path to the SECCG

It’s opponent record. Texas or Texas A&M doesn’t matter unless you have an opponent preference if the winner wins out, we just need Georgia to beat Tennessee and we’re in the drivers seat

Do yall think both teams who reach the SECCG make the playoff no matter the result?

If both of those teams have no out of conference losses (so LSU and A&M could be the exceptions if they made SECCG and lost), then yes.

Would be a terrible precedent to not take the 2 top SEC teams.

I agree. I would prefer to be whatever we are 5-8 and have a home game playoff host.

Yep. UGA is going to be a tough team after that loss. UT catching them at a bad time. I hope they win though.

Too many people are confusing Tennessee with a good team.

It may come to style points and how badly Tennessee loses to be exposed.

Here's to an angry Bulldog.

It looked like Nico got banged up in the first half.

My hunch is the SECCG will be a "winner gets a bye in the first round" game. The unknown is whether losing when in the host first-round game position means you fall out of host position.

Furthermore, will playing a tough SEC team for a bye in the CFP be worth it compared to getting most of December off to mend and playing a likely lower ranked out of conference team? You're playing 4 games no matter what and generally speaking I'd rather be playing Miami before Christmas than Texas at the start of December.

I want the SECCG and believe we can take anyone on any given night. Or lose. Team looks locked in as of right now though. I say go get the bye and oh yeah the SEC title.
