Both UGa and Alabama wins out. UGa wins a Close one

Are you suggesting that UGA wins the SEC Championship?


Yes..The two big hairballs I have in this scenario is will Alabama still get in if both UGa and Bama are undefeated but Bama loses a close one in the SECCG.

The other Hairball is ND running the table and how that would impact the CFP

I believe ND would get in the playoffs if they win out. The back half of their schedule is loaded with top 25 matchups with one of them being possible top 10 team when they play. As of right now, their will be at least one spot in the playoffs that will go to a one lost team. I could see ND jumping a undefeated conference champion if it is Wisconsin or maybe Washington for example. Three playoff spots will be from the SEC, Big 12, ACC, and maybe Big 10 (depending on who wins the conference). Forget about the PAC 12. Washington and Southern Cal losing games has hurt the conference's chances for a playoff bid. Now it is not impossible for Washington to sneak back in but they would need some very big wins and hope teams in front of them lose.

The only way I see two SEC teams getting in is if something weird happens in the last couple of weeks of the season and in the conference championship games. The chances of that are very unlikely but crazy things has happened in CFB.

Assuming TCU and PSU win out and are in (as you mentioned), bama loses to us in SECCG and ND wins out, ND is absolutely in. ND and bama would both only have 1 loss (and to the same team at that), neither would be champions of a conference, but ND's loss was week 2 while bama's was fresh and ND would have likely faced a tougher schedule, or at least a similar schedule.

Personally, I think bama is light years better than ND and is a MUCH better football team, but if that's the black and white facts the committee has to go on I don't see how ND is left otu.
