Bama was not the 2nd best team in the SEC that would have been Tennessee who beat Alabama during the regular season. Alabama was not even the best team in the SEC West that would have been LSU who Alabama lost to and who also lost to UT and UGA. Badly on both accounts.
UGA did, however, beat the #2 team in the nation in TCU. T recap UGA beat the second best team in the SEC behind themselves and the second best team in the nation behind themselves again.

It kind of is though. We're the reason the playoffs exist at all.

I think Bama was the 2nd best team in the SEC. Neutral field vs Tennessee and LSU, I see Bama winning both of those.
But that isn't how college football is played.
Win. Or cry like a bitch. It is the secrant way.

Seeing that they gave Tennessee (who beat Alabama and LSU) one of its two losses, and they beat the SEC West champion, they clearly beat the #2 team in the conference in whatever form you look at it. They then beat the #4 and #3 teams in the country, since Michigan lost in the playoff. I don't see your point, other than perhaps Georgia living rent free in your head.

If you are referring to Alabama
UGA is the first team in the CFP era to win the Natty without playing Alabama.

Both Alabama could have absolutely won enough games to have played UGA, neither did. Instead UGA was forced to play teams who had beaten Alabama and Michigan. I fully understand that results on the field have nothing on the eye test or the "I wannas" but Bama and Michigan both had the same shot to meet UGA as everyone in the nation, Bama and Michigan chose not to meet UGA. UGA had nothing to do with them losing and not making the natty.

Also the first team in the CFP era to beat the absolute hell out of the two teams that beat Alabama during the season.

That's really weird because I remember winning the SEC championship game when we played the 2nd best team in the conference

UGA never played anybody this season 
The real question is why did all other teams suck this season. Especially when they played UGA.

What made up reality do some of you live in? Alabama had 2 conference losses and finished 4th in the league.

Bama and Michigan) Absurdly lucky for a team that already has a huge talent advantage over 95% of CFB teams.
According to the standings Bama was 4th in the SEC and UT was second, so technically UGA beat #2 and #3 in SEC.
But by your logic, they beat the #2 team in the country in OSU because a lot of people think they were better than UM despite the results on the field.

That’s just patently false. The national champion in 2015, 2017, and 2020 didn’t have to play Bama.

Alabama didn’t earn the opportunity to lose to this Georgia team.

And the first time in the playoff era to win back-to-back titles, something Alabama hasn't done.
