I think Alabama or Auburn has the best shot for a 1 loss SEC team to make the final 4...I'd bet one of them will make it .....Ole Miss and State with one loss are out unless they get to the SEC championship and beat GA. JMO

I think Alabama wins out and gets in the playoff - either by winning the SEC or by being a 3 or 4 seed as a non-conference winning team.

Alabama got beat by OM, almost lost to Arkansas, and whipped the breaks off of a dumpster fire of a program in A&M. I wouldnt call them playoff contenders just yet. These next few weeks should tell us more.

Edit- Thats not in any way to discredit OM's win. I hope they arent 56-0 good when the play MSU.

Here is one for you...

Ole Miss loses to LSU...but wins out...

Alabama beats MSU...

Ole Miss goes to ATL, but loses to Georgia (who has won out)

Alabama/Georgia in playoff....

Let's say states or ole miss run the table to the egg bowl. Then whoever wins goes to sec championship game and looses to Georgia. Then you may get 3 sec teams in playoff since they would all be ranked in top 4 of polls and all be 1 loss teams. Doubt it happens that way because I don't see them both not losing 1 before egg bowl. And no 2 loss team will get into playoff system I Beleive.

Stop trippin'
There is absolutely no scenario out there that would put 3 SEC teams in the playoff.
Remember that the rankings do not influence the committee.

That playoff committee is going to do everything possible to ONLY allow one SEC team into the playoff.

A one loss conference winner of the Pac 12, Big 10, and/or Big 12 is going to get in the playoffs before a one loss SEC team that didn't make it to Atlanta.

With no more BCS standings, its just going to happen this way.
