Florida wins out including sec championship game over Bama - 1 loss
Bama loses sec championship game to fla in rematch - only 1 loss
UGA loses to Fla and wins rest of games - one loss

All would have decent playoff resumes.

I guess Clemson trumps Miami and Georgia goes. I don't think the SEC will ever get 3 out of 4 spots.

If Bama loses to Florida in the championship that would be two losses.

Thinks UGA would get left out. In this scenario both UF and Bama would likely have a "better win" (each other) than UGA (Clemson)

If Florida wins out they will be ranked 3-4ish, so them beating a #1 Bama wouldn't necessarily knock Bama out of it. If Clemson keeps playing like trash, I don't see how you can put UGA in the playoff even with 1 loss because they will have literally beaten no one besides a Clemson we now know(think?) was vastly overrated in the preseason.

All depends on SOS and how OOC opponents perform. As an example, if the question is Bama, UGA, or Clemson all with 1 loss, it's easier to choose UGA than Bama. If the east is total dogshit, A&M and Ole Miss are top 15 caliber, and Clemson loses to Miami, then I'd say that Bama may get the 4 seed over UGA. I think all these things would have to happen because it's hard to put anyone in the playoff that lost their last game.

All depends on what else happens outside of those three teams control.

Clemson's schedule is bad enough for them to let Bama in for that scenario. They haven't let a 1 loss non-conference champ in yet over a 1 loss conference champ but with Clemson's pitiful schedule they would get jumped. Georgia wouldn't get in.

Clemson is going to have to start blowing people out or they won't make it even with 1 loss. I don't see how people can trash Oklahoma every year for blowing 1 game then destroying everyone else, but Clemson gets a pass in a conference that is just as bad.

In the 3 team round-robin Bama and UF are 1-1; UGA would be 0-1 (with a head to head loss to UF) Unless every other conf champ has 3 losses we're going to the NY6 Sugar to play OU.

Its so bad this year I think a 1 loss ND might even go over a 1 loss Clemson.

Because Clemson has proven they can run with the big Dawgs. OU has proven, time and time again, that they cannot. I'd argue OU gets more benefit of doubt than they deserve.

In CFB more than anything else, what you did last year barely matters. What you did 3-4 years ago is entirely irrelevant. This year's Bama and Clemson teams might as well be completely different from the 2020 squads.

Holding past (as in previous seasons') performances against a team is stupid. What have you done for me lately?

Depends on the OOC teams. Oklahoma probably undefeated because they play nobody. Getting all 3 in is possible, but would require all the rest of the OOC bigs to have 2 losses.

Alabama in 2017. Lost to Auburn (last game) and made the playoffs, as I'm sure you remember.

Florida definitely in.

The committee will have a hell of a time deciding between UGA and Bama and decides to chicken out and leave both out in favor of a lesser team from another conference.

Florida
Oregon
Clemson
Ohio State, Michigan or Oklahoma

Bama and UF for sure then it comes down to what Ohio state, Penn State, and a few other schools outside of the sec do
