Just a little food for thought:
Say we beat Georgia in the SEC Championship Game. Yes, I know it's going to be a tough game to win, but just humor me.
We would obviously jump to #1 in the rankings and Georgia would also be selected by the committee.
Let's also assume Oregon and Ohio State win out.
It's certainly possible if Oregon can get by Utah on Saturday. I don't see another potential loss on their schedule.
I don't think Michigan nor Michigam State can hang with the Buckeyes offensively.
So, in this scenario your four playoff teams would be Georgia, Oregon, Ohio State and US.
Seeing that the committee tends to stay away from rematches in the semi-finals we would probably end up with this:
1. Alabama
2. Oregon
3. Georgia
4. Ohio State
That would completely suck for us. Yes, Oregon beat Ohio State earlier this season. Ohio State would boat race Oregon if they played right now.
Basically, we would be in a war with the Buckeyes while Georgia would cruise to the championship game.

If Ohio State beats #6 Michigan, #7 Michigan State AND probably #15 (or higher) Wisconsin, even if those games are 1 score margins, their resume would likely be enough to push them past Oregon who isn’t even favored to heat Utah, and I’m not convinced they’ll win their CCG
IMO to stay ahead of Ohio State, they’ll have to blast anyone else they play before the playoffs by 2-3 TDs a piece
I think it would be Bama, Ohio State, Georgia, Oregon in that order
