What am I missing? Bama wins iron bowl and they are in the playoffs. Right?
You sure about that?
I give us a 40% chance to win the IB. After that, we need at least 2 or 3 on the inner bubble to lose which is not going to happen.

None of those would cause Bama to jump any of the current playoff teams. They need all of those plus a loss from one of the currents.
Ummmmm is Clemson not above them?

Yes but they're not a current. Jumping to Clemson's spot makes Bama the first team out.

Beat Auburn
SC beats Clemson
Miami beats SMU
Write it down

There would be a lot of pushback on taking a 3 loss regular season team over a 1 loss regular season team that lost their championship game.

No
They're going to the Citrus, Reliaquest or Gator Bowl.
They'll play either Indiana, Illinois, Iowa or Clemson.

Currently Clemson is 1st team out, Alabama 2nd. If Clemson wins, Bama stays home. If Clemson loses, Bama has to win. Doesn't matter how they win vs, Auburn, just win.

Can't spell Citrus without Milroe. Or something anyway.

I think they have to beat Auburn convincingly.
Ole Miss has to beat MSU convincingly.
SC has to beat Clemson convincingly.
If all three of those happen I think Bama is in for what's it worth.
If SC whallops Clemson and the other two are close, I think Ole Miss gets in.
If Bama whallops Auburn they are in.
If Ole Miss loses and Bama scrapes by ... SC might make it in provided they whallop Clemson at Clemson.
It's a longshot for SC.
Ole Miss, imho, has the best chance.
Bama is shakey right now and it's at Auburn and anything can happen in that game.
Now, it would help all three of their chances if a couple of teams lost above them.
Indiana vs Purdue ... probably not.
Boise State losing would be good.
Not sure about if Miami loses. The problem is, if they do, then Clemson moves into the ACCCG vs SMU and a win there would give Clemson an automativ berth. Then what do they do with SMU?
Gonna be a whacky weekend.
All that text and you left out the simplest and most likely game that helps Alabama: Texas beating Georgia. If Bama and UGA have 3 losses, Bama will go ahead based on H2H.

You're assuming that this DEI Selection Committee gives a hoot about H2H at this point in the season.
I can almost guarantee that they'll use it when it suits them and ignore it when it doesn't.
They're hell bent on putting more ACC teams in this thing than are worthy ... and they want four B1G teams in there as well.
There are going-to-be some pissed off fans the Tuesday after the conference championship games are played.
