Neither because the committee won't have to deal with the controversy and headache of leaving out a team with fewer losses than the champion of that same conference. A one-loss team from another P5 conference, a one-loss Notre Dame, or the undefeated champion of a G5 conference will get in instead.

This 4-team playoff system is just as broken as the BCS. It's a glorified popularity contest judged by a small group of biased people. With the BCS, there was at least some semblance of objectivity because computers played a factor. There is even less objectivity now.

ACC, Big 12, Big 10, Pac 10 will all have an undefeated or 1 loss champ, so neither.

If it did happen however, Alabama would go regardless of the fact that ole miss is SEC champ and won head to head. Blown out v Florida and a beat down by Memphis = it's over.

It was done bc the "historical" teams were having trouble against the computers.
