[quote]Remember that 2 SECE and 2 SECW teams get those buys. Either UGA or Vandy will get one of those byes even though they may have a lesser SEC record.[/quote

I don’t think that’s right. The 2 division winners get a bye and the 3rd and 4th bye go to the team with 3rd or 4th best record regardless of division.

EDIT: Found the rules:
The two division champions shall be automatically seeded number one and number two based on winning percentage in conference competition. The rest shall be seeded numbers three through 12 based on winning percentage without regard to division.

We need 4 more SEC wins, and even that doesn't guarantee a top 4 finish. Tenn, Arky, and A&M are all on track for 18+ wins and hold tie-breakers over us. We're really competing with auburn for that 4th spot and they hold the tiebreaker as well. Before last night we were 1 game ahead of them so we just needed to win as many as they do from here on out but they have the easier schedule with Bama and UK left. I'd feel good with 4 wins, but auburn could force us to need 5. 3 wins is likely not enough.
