if we win out including the SECCG, we have to be playing balls to teh wall like the year we played in the Sugar Bowl and destroyed a hapless Hawaii team..and yes we would be in the playoffs
so what about those potentially 6 undefeated or 1 loss teams ahead of us?

there would have to be a lot of losses..
I think the playoff committee looks at the final rankings like this..
1. P5 Conf Champions
2. Records of those champions
3. Any team with a better record than a champion
So basically, we need the winners of the ACC, B12, BIG, PAC all to have 2 losses, and then we are in the discussion. And I really don't think a team , lets say LSU for example ( loses against Bama) has 1 loss and misses the CCG has any real shot.
Whether fans agree or not , the committee is putting a priority on having P5 conf champions in the playoffs and that trumps all tie breakers.
They would rather have 4 champs and one champ complaining, than 3 champs a non champ and 2 conferences complaining. And just because , we here in SEC country believe that our champion deserves to be in, that's not the feeling around the country. And with losses to Memphis, West Kentucky, Toledo, OT wins against Jax St, 5-7 records in bowls, blowout losses in NY6 bowls; there really isn't room to argue.
