No 2 loss team is getting in.

This is a legitimate question the OPis asking. Auburns defense is good enough to beat both Georgia and Bama. The AU offense would have to have zero turn overs and play lights out ball control football to pull it off though. You also must take into account how hard it is to beat the same team twice in the same season. Look at UF - Fla St in 1996 and Bama - LSU in 2011. If Auburn did pull all of that off, I would imagine that Auburn would be in the four team playoff. Bama's schedule would hurt us I'm afraid.
It will not be talked about much, but if AU beats A&M and UGA the next two weeks, it will the top topic covered. I think the SEC gets left out in that scenario, which is why you will start seeing the SECN/ESPN pushing the strength of the SEC the next few weeks.

It would be a tough sell to leave out an Auburn team that beat Alabama and Georgia twice. I know it all depends on what the rest of the conferences do in their respective records and championship games. But again, to leave out a two loss Auburn, SEC Champion would be bs in my strong opinion.

Must be high as a kite.

A 1 loss alabama will probably get in. See OSU/PSU last year. 2 loss PSU beats OSU, wins conference gets left out while OSU makes it.
Bama and OSU havd about the same "it" factor nationally and a loss by either is quickly forgiven.
AU probably has the best chance of a 2 loss team to get in. I just dont see them jumping 5 teams that will probably only have 1 loss: PSU, OSU, TCU, Clemson, Miami, Alabama, Georgia or Wisconsin.
The best case senario for AU is
Miami beats Notre Dame
LSU beats Alabama but loses to Arkansas, Tennessee or ATM
Michigan St beats PSU
AU beats georgia
TCU beats Oklahoma
Tt beats TCU
Wisconsin beats OSU in B1GCG
Miami beats Clemson for the ACC
AU beats Georgia in SECCG
Wisconsin and Miami are in.
Then a bunch of 2 loss teams where AU has 2 great wins, and the 2 best losses. Clemson and an LSU team that beat Bama.
Without bama and georgia having 2 losses you will get left out.
Edit
LSU/Bama
PSU/Michigan St
Next week. If both dont happen as listed above, you have very little chance.
