If you(bama) lose to LSU and LSU does not lose again you(bama) will not make SEC title game.


If Auburn wins out as well (better chance than LSU winning out) then Auburn goes to Atlanta.

quote:

Impossible, if Bama, Auburn and Texas A&M are all 7-1 in the SEC Bama goes to the SEC championshi


If that happens it goes to record of cross divisional opponents.
AU - Vandy & Uga (3-7) Best possible record is 9-7.
Bama - Tenn & UK (6-5) Best possible record is 10-6.
Tamu - Tenn & Scar (4-7) Best possible record is 9-7.
So probably bama in this scenario.

Vandy and Uga still have Auburn so the best possible is 7 if its going to be a 3 way tie @ 7-1

Tenn is a push for A&M and Bama. Best possible for USC is 4-4 worst for UK is 4-4. Tie breaker would then go to Bama H2H. So there is no way AM wins a 3way Tie.

There is only 1 scenario that its not bama. Vandy and UGA both win out other than Auburn. Tenn/UK lose all of their remaining games (one has to win when they play) . This would put Vandy/Uga @ 7 wins and Tenn/UK @ 7 wins.

Tenn would have to give Missouri their only SEC Win.

The Western Division Champion that wins the SECC will be in. Any other team will be outside looking in, unless UF beats FSU and the West Champion.

If you do not win your Division, it is a de facto claim you are the third best team in your Conference. 2011 was a great example...

...of Alabama being the "de facto" third best team in the SEC?

It depends... the four teams could easily be undefeated PAC 12 champion Washington, undefeated ACC champion Clemson, the Big Ten champion and the SEC champion...

If UDub gets tagged with a loss, I don't think a one-loss bama, undefeated ACC champion Clemson, the Big Ten champion and the SEC champion is a stretch...
