Oklahoma has to play Alabama, Ole Miss, and Tennessee.
Ole Miss plays Georgia and Oklahoma.
Tennessee plays Alabama and Olahoma.
Alabama plays Tennessee and Oklahoma.

Granted, you did say current, but in order for those 6 SEC teams to all get in the playoffs, not only will they somehow have to magically all beat each other, it also assumes that basically neither Florida, LSU, nor Missouri win another meaningful game for the rest of the season.

Not saying they don’t deserve it, but talking heads would explode if the SEC got 6 teams in the playoffs.

Tennessee has to fall behind A&M just because of MSU. I don’t think they are that good, but they aren’t folding this year when the pressure is applied

You're arguing with ESPN. They do this every week, and it changes based on latest results. No one is saying all 6 of those teams will get in. They are saying that if the season ended today that is their guess of how the committee would vote.

The first list is just my take on who would beat who, based on what ive seen this season. I think Tennessee would beat both Ole Miss and A&M on a neutral field going by what I've seen.

Their offense is ridiculous and neither of those two teams would be able to keep up imho.

Agreed but Tennessee will be fortunate to go 1-1 in their trips to Tuscaloosa and the swamp. I think they will but it won't be easy. I have them winning every other game though.

We could look like a much different team if our defense would get healthy… hoping to have McCoy back for Arkansas… Gibson may be out for the season
