LSU wins out
State beats Bama, wins out
Auburn loses to Georgia, beats Bama
Bama drops next 2
Who reps the West in this scenario? I really have no idea.

Is it highest ranked when it gets to here?
But it won't lol.

West could be wrapped up next week.
Bama beats State. UGA beats AU.
Kills the suspense, but it's the most likely to happen.

The odds are low but they aren't as low as most people think.
LSU's remaining schedule is cake. They will win out.
Bama is beat the hell up. They could easily drop the next two games, both on the road in tough places to play.

Alabama, of course. They would almost certainly STILL have the highest ranking.

If we lose to UGA Sat, it is highly unlikely we will beat Bama. Fans will be extremely pissed and Gus will be on the hot seat again. We will have zero momentum, out of contention won't be beating Bama.
On the flip side, after we beat UGA, Bama will have all they can handle when they show up. Maybe more than they can handle

In that situation Auburn has best sec west record, as their loss is to Uga in east.

It would be western division records.
LSU lost both games to west
bammer lost both games to west
Auburn lost one to east/one to west
Msu lost one to east/one to west
Auburn vs msu head to head would mean Auburn goes to title game correct?
I could be wrong.

The SEC multi-tiebreaker (n>2) is ran until two teams remain, then the two-way tiebreaker is applied:
A. Combined head to head record among the tied teams;
B. Record of the tied teams within the division;
C. Head to head competition against the team within the division with the best overall Conference record (divisional and non divisional) and proceeding through the division (multiple ties within the division will be broken from first to last and a tie for first place will be broken before a tie for fourth place);
D. Overall Conference record against non divisional teams;
E. Combined record against all common non divisional teams;
F. Record against the common non divisional team with the best overall Conference record (divisional and non divisional) and proceeding through other common non divisional teams based on their order of finish within their division; and
G. Best cumulative Conference winning percentage of non-divisional opponents (Note: If two teams' non-divisional opponents have the same cumulative record, then the two-team tiebreaker procedures apply. If four teams are tied, and three teams' non-divisional opponents have the same cumulative record, the three-team tiebreaker procedures will be used beginning with 2.A.);

I'm thinking it'd be about time to unzip, pull 'em out, stretch 'em out, and lay 'em down.

In the scenario set out by the OP, the combined records would be:
Auburn 3-1
MSU 3-1
Alabama 2-2
LSU 2-2
Auburn and MSU would advance to the two-way tie, in which Auburn would advance by virtue of head-to-head.
So Auburn.
Auburn 3-1
MSU 3-1
Alabama 2-2
LSU 2-2
Auburn and MSU would advance to the two-way tie, in which Auburn would advance by virtue of head-to-head.
So Auburn.

If there is no way State wins the West, I hope we beat Bama and then they absolutely kill Auburn, and Ga Kills Auburn too.
MSU 2 - Bama 0
GA 88,875,324 - Auburn 3
Bama 89,546,354,294,384.00645 - Auburn -0.7

Yup. State seems eliminated from the West, since Auburn holds the head-to-head in any one-loss tie and a two-West-loss Auburn would advance Alabama.
Egg Bowl looking good, though.

If AU loses to UGA they need State to beat Bama or it's over.
At that point it doesn't matter who wins the Iron Bowl.

Who reps the West in this scenario? I really have no idea.
In your scenario, Auburn would represent the West in the SECCG.
Here's why:
1st tie breaker with three or more teams tied is combined head to head record among the tied teams.
That would eliminate Alabama and LSU.
Of the two remaining teams, head to head results are the 1st consideration. Auburn wins the West as they beat MSU.
