If Bama only has one loss, and a 2 loss LSU team has to win the SEC...

A one loss Bama has a better chance of getting to the playoff no matter what a 2 loss LSU (or AU) team does.


If AU or LSU win out, that team would have won the SEC, beaten Alabama, and their two losses would have been early. They would be riding the nation's best hot streak.

There is no way the committee takes Alabama over that team.

Maybe Alabama plus that team get in.

I can see this happening with all the one loss teams lining up. Clemson will lose one Michigan will lose one,Buckeyes have already OK,Baylor all with one loss. This is very possible under many scenarios.

This is what would happen. It means that both Auburn and LSU (and Tennessee and Florida) are still alive in the national championship picture even with 2 losses. They couldn't take Alabama without taking the Conference champion too and they want to take Alabama.
