I think the conference championship game will most likely be harmful to the SEC while the conference is so stacked, especially since the BCS extra game calculation no longer applies.

If the balance of power evens out between the east and west the CCG will be more important.

It could be extremely harmful to the SEC West Champion if they lose in the SEC Championship.

Consider this: Ole Miss and Alabama win out. Ole Miss wins the West, because of their head to head win over Bama. Georgia wins East and beats Ole Miss by 1 point in SEC Title game.

There will be those that seriously think that Bama should be included in the playoff over Ole Miss due to their loss to Georgia. It would be very, very wrong to put Bama in the playoff over Ole Miss, simply because Ole Miss had to play one more game while Bama sat at home and watched.

This is a real possiblity.
