if there is a 3 way tie, i believe they go off of cross division opponent record. So since we have vandy and uga, that does not help up much since bama and aTm both have tennesse. but since bama played uk and aTm played usc, it will be close.
I could be wrong though, i know thats how it used to be done . it could just go off of CFP rankings.
