Maybe somebody can help me understand the rules if I'm wrong but here's what I found about the division rankings. LINK
Here's what I found in the tie-breakers section.

Conference Championship - The SEC Championship will be decided by a game between the two division champions. The team in each division with the highest percentage of wins during all regular-season Conference competition shall be declared division champion.

This is the truth, but what does it matter? LSU the year prior finished first in the SEC standings, but a different SEC team finished in front of them in the final polls. Our top 5 finish >>> finishing outside of the top ten, regardless of SEC standings, and they know it.
