I think it would be possible just for the fact that UGA would immediately be coming off of a loss and they could always use the "but ND has improved since then!" Plus it would give them an excuse to avoid 2 SEC teams.
I still think UGA would get in over LSU for the simple fact that they have comparable schedules, the same loss to the same team, but UGA would have the East championship.

it doesn't matter, we didn't win our conference.
Remember in 2017 how the big debate over the 4th spot was between bama (11-1, non conf champ) and OSU (12-2, big 10 champ)?
Remember who was an afterthought and not even mentioned in the discussion? Wisconsin..who was undefeated at 12-0 going into the big 10 champ then lost. They weren't even given a second's thought despite starting 12-0 becuase they didn't win their league. The committee has been pretty consistent all 5 yeras that you better win your conference to be considered, and if you don't you better hope that a conf champ out there has ROYALLY fricked up, which OSU did in '17.
bama and clemson are givens in this scenario. You'd then have a 1-loss non champ UGA against a 1-loss conf champ OU/UW. We wouldn't have a chance.
