The SEC will get two:

I agree Bama is done. Only way possible for SEC to get 2 in the playoff is for UGA to upset LSU in the SEC championship game assuming UGA wins out the rest of the way. I am not sure UGA gets out of Auburn with a win this week.

The committee seems to have more west coast presence on it this year and for that reason I think the winner of the Oregon/Utah Pac 12 championship game gets in the playoff. Pac 12 has been excluded the past few years.

Even if LSU loses against UGA they would still be in the playoff due to their resume.

However, it would be crazy to see A&M step up and beat LSU. Unlikely but there have been some big upsets so far this year and after watching LSU I think they play good offense but their defense is not as good. Reminds me a lot of Bama last year.

Not Unless Oregon Loses!

That will happen if either we lose or Oregon loses.

Oregon should be getting the - SEC PASS - they controlled the game versus Auburn for all of 19 seconds.
The committee will see LSU having only beaten Auburn by 3 points at home and go - this Oregon team must be pretty go b/c had they played Auburn at home they would have won too!

IF they win out; they should be in.

Carlsbad started a thread about ESPN saying Bama has a 69% chance of making it - but ESPN does not get to choose thankfully!
Otherwise last year they would have cancelled the playoffs and given it to the "greatest college team ever" on the spot.

The West Coast hasn't had a team in in a while and "politics is still a huge part of college football"! If Oregon is Pac 12 champions having only lost in SEC country in a game they dominated - they are in.

Bama - would have not won it's division.

IN 2017 when Bama got in w/o winning their division the choice was Big 10 winner { with two losses } or Alabama! They choose Alabama because they only had 1 loss to ironically enough Auburn 26-14. Auburn was #10 at the time.

What if the Pac12 champion only has one loss?***

It appears to me the committee puts a lot of stock in top 15

Bama will need some help from the Pac12 and the BigXII...
