If you go 10-2 and finish #11 you aren't getting into the playoff.
The #11 ranked team will get a bid EVERY time.
The Power 5 conference champs are likely to all be ranked inside the top 12 and they all get in as champs. The Group of 5 champs also get in but are likely ranked outside the top 12.
That leaves 6 "at large" spots that will be awarded by the CFP ranking and any team sitting at #11 is IN.

If you think the SEC is going to get 4 teams into a playoff you are crazy. And every one of these mentioned as being barely in the Top 12 was a #3 or #4 SEC team.
The next giant argument is "A 9-3 SEC team that finished 3rd in their division and went 5-3 in their league can't play for a national title when Team X from Conference X went 11-1".
I'm not saying I agree with any of this, but it's absolutely the next giant media blow up argument about the playoff.
