I believe the tie breaker would go to whoever was ranked higher.

In the scenarios that have been brought up. A&M might have an advantage in the eyes of the committee, because they lost earlier and on the road. Especially if LSU beat Bama and A&M beats LSU late in the season. The argument would be made that A&M is improving.

Incorrect if a 3 way tie. It would fall to winning record of our cross divisional opponents and UA currently holds the advantage there.

That's not remotely true. There is nothing in the tie-breaker rules about rank.

The tie-breaker rules go all the way to sec east opponent records. Auburns east opponents are terrible. Bama and A&M share tennessee so it comes down to kentucky vs usce which UK will have the advantage.
