In that scenario there is no way a 2 loss UGA goes to the Sugar over a 1 loss LSU.

UGA will lose @ Auburn.

UGA vs UF will be a toss up.

I think so too. Auburn’s secondary is their weak link on defense. Bama and LSU will beat them easily because they can pass. UGA plays right into Auburn’s hands. You ain’t running on AuBarn consistently

Seems accurate now. I’ll be interested to see what happens if LSU beats Bama and Ohio State drops a close game to say Wisconsin or Penn State but wins the Big 10. For the sake of argument, say they drop a close game to Wisconsin and beat them in the Big 10 championship. Ohio State will have more ranked wins. Will Ohio State get in and Bama stay home if both have 1 loss.

I’ll also be interested to see if A&M engraves the score of a regular season game on their rings, again.

Someone remind me of how the order works?

Isn't it more likely, if both UGA and LSU have losses to Alabama, that the Sugar Bowl would select LSU as a 1-loss, top 6 (likely) team?

So they have LSU losing 2 games or just don't know how things work?
