If we had beaten Ole Miss and Georgia, who would have taken the tiebreaker?

Whoever was ranked highest, most likely between LSU and Auburn.
Interesting since it means all three teams lost on the road also, so there's no definite "Wow they beat this team on their turf" yada yada.

Auburn would probably go because they lost the earliest.
To explain further: with a three way tie, they go with whoever is ranked the highest in the bcs. Losing earlier is generally better for your final ranking.

SEC THREE (OR MORE) TEAM TIE
1. (Once the tie has been reduced to two teams, go to the two-team tie-breaker format.)
2. Combined head-to-head record among the tied teams.
3. Record of the tied teams within the division.
4. Head-to-head competition vs. the team within the division with the best overall (divisional and non-divisional) Conference record and proceeding through the division. Multiple ties within the division will be broken from first to last.
5. Overall record vs. non-division teams.
6. Combined record vs. all common non-divisional teams.
7. Record vs. common non-divisional team with the best overall Conference (divisional and non-divisional) record and proceeding through other common non-divisional teams based on their order of finish within their division.
8. The tied team with the highest ranking in the Bowl Championship Series Standings following the last weekend of regular-season games shall be the divisional representative in the SEC Championship Game, unless the second of the tied teams is ranked within five-or-fewer places of the highest ranked tied team. In this case, the head-to-head results of the top two ranked tied teams shall determine the representative in the SEC Championship Game.

Auburn. We would have dropped behind Bama and probably wouldn't have passed them after auburn loss. Auburn would be ahead of both.

Really? Do you guys actually believe that in a 3-way tie Alabama wouldn't be ranked highest after starting the season ranked #1? It wouldn't matter if they were the best team or not...

In a 3 way tie with the 3 having beat each other it would be head to head of two highest ranked in BCS if within 5 spots. Lsu goes because of bama losing last week of season, would be behind one loss lsu. And lsu has head to head over auburn
