Auburn more deserving than Bama for playoffs

Before all the mouth breathers start slobbering 1 loss vs 3 losses....
Record vs top 6-
Auburn 2-2, Gumps 0-1
Head to head
Auburn
Conference Standing
Auburn
Division Standing
Auburn
SEC East Opponents
Auburn (UGA, Mizzou) >>> Alabama (tenn, Vandy)
Vs MSU and TAMU
Auburn blew out MSU and won by 15 vs TAMU > Gumps won both games by one score
Vs LSU
Bama win >>> Auburn loss
Improvement over season
Auburn steadily got better > Bama struggled late
So the only two areas where Bama is more deserving than Auburn are vs LSU and number of losses. The first is irrefutable ....but the number of losses begs the question what would Bama have done at Clemson and vs UGA twice???
We can only guess. On the other hand we know when they were both on the field LAST WEEK with the SEC West title on the line, Auburn was clearly the better team. And they are no doubt the more deserving team.
And for the mouth breathers who can't help but fixate on "3 losses vs 1"....UCF!
If Wisconsin loses The fourth spot should be between Auburn, USC, UCF, Ohio State and maybe even Wisconsin if it's a close loss. No more free passes for the Gumps.
TL/DR edit #1 - The whole thing is everyone believes it is absurd that Auburn would get in the playoffs - yet it is blatantly obvious that Auburn is "more deserving" and beat Alabama in last Saturday's "eye test" that was broadcast nationwide.
TL:DR #2 top 3 SEC teams Head-to-head-to-head Auburn - 2-1 Georgia - 1-1 Alabama - 0-1

TL,DR : LSU fan doesn't want Bama in playoffs

Neither deserve to be in the playoffs. Auburn just got their asses handed to them fair and square. Sadly it did Bama a lot of good to lose the iron bowl so they can sit idle at number 5 and get bumped into the playoff by Wisconsin losing

LSU - forgiveable
UGA - forgiveable
Clemson - forgiveable
good argument OP, to be honest
Auburn lost to two playoff teams and a top 25 team

Well committee always says 4 best teams regardless of record.
And since Auburn easily beat Alabama...they should be in over Bama.
Nothing more obvious than losing straight up.

The gumps want the best 4 teams. Auburn crushed them. You are right.

You’ll be downvoted. But you’re right.
But eyeball test.

Like Clint Eastwood said, deserves got nothing to do with it.

Bama is ISIS but even I think they deserve to be the 4 seed

We are way too injured. KJ, Kam, Tre, and C Davis are way too important to our success. Not sure they would be 100 in a month.
