NO

Unless several other teams implode and end up with two losses. That would be the only way that this could possibly happen.

Need some total chaos to happen over the next month for both to get in. The opportunities are there though.

Penn State - Ohio State, Michigan State, possible Big 10 title game

Wisconsin- easiest path of any team to stay undefeated until Big 10 title game, would face Penn State, Ohio State, or Michigan State there

Ohio State- lose to Penn State, Michigan State, or in Big 10 final

Clemson- lose to NC State or in ACC title game

Miami- Va Tech, Notre Dame, or ACC title

Notre Dame- NC State, Miami, or Stanford

TCU- surprising Iowa State team, @ OU, Big 12 title

Ok State- WVU, OU, ISU, or Big 12 title game

OU- still looming there Ok State, TCU, WVU, or Big 12 title game

There are some possible stumbling blocks that would or could allow a 1 loss BAMA or UGA to both get in.

No way. A 1 loss Notre Dame would get in over a 1 loss Georgia, regardless of Georgia beating them. Notre Dame is the golden goose and to the NCAA it's all about the money. Can you imagine the outrage the committee would take if they put in 2 SEC teams over a 1 loss TCU, OU, Ok St, Penn St, Washington, Clemson, or even Miami?

Nope...

Hell Notre Dame will likely get in if they win out. It's all about ratings.

Georgia would need Notre Dame to keep winning, but Alabama strength of schedule is going to be pretty weak. Georgia's is going to be ok thanks to Georgia Tech (so long as they keep winning) and Notre Dame (so long as they keep winning). Alabama's wins over Fresno St and Colorado St will look ok... but those wins will be better than some SEC wins.

Still a lot of football left, but I think there's a big chance it could happen. Best chance is if Alabama wins a close game.

UGA will get fricked, it’s a fact of life. All UGA can do at this point is focus on the next game. They have some margin for error in the regular season. For instance, If they lose to Auburn but beat Bama, they’re in. For Bama, regardless of the SECCG outcome, they’re in.

If Bama gets to 12-0 we are in. Will be no worse than a #4 seed at that point. It is good to be The King

Lol at the mental gymnastics one would have to do to put Notre Dame over Georgia after the SECCG when the Irish were essentially on a bye week. Especially considering Georgia beat Notre Dame and had a better record
