re: A history of the CFB Playoff Selections

SEC is setting up for a potential 2 team playoff again IF the East champ can win out and the West champ goes in undefeated. If the East champ can win the title game, there could be two 1 loss West teams(LSU/Bama) right there on the bubble.

no. The only reason 2 got in in '17 was because the big 10 champion had 2 losses. Granted it's cfb so anythign could happen, but it looks like a relatively safe bet that the champions of the big 10, big 12, and acc, whoever they may be, will all have less than 2 losses. Hell the Pac12 champ might as well if it's oregon. If that happens there is zero chance the SEC gets 2. The west team that loses the title game would be 12-1 without a conference championship, that's not really a better resume than a 12-1 conf champion.

Could also see Bama/LSU be insanely close and the loser sneak in too because of the high value of their loss.

no chance

Either happening means the second half of the season has to see some major losses of course from OU/Oregon/ND/Ohio State/Clemson types to make it play out though.

I was only scrolling one line at a time so got to this one last but yeah...it would take a whole lot of chaos for more than 1 SEC team to get in. Not impossible, but veyr unlikely IMO.
