Anyone see this potentially playing out?

I think it would take that plus Mizzou winning the SEC...

If all that happened, no SEC team in playoff IMO.

Let's say no sec team makes it in- what changes would be made to the system?

For starters, the world as we know it would have ended.

People would be snatched from their homes in the middle of the night. Bank accounts would mysteriously be emptied. An underground city in a remote location would appear. The power grid would shut down. Then we would worry about football.

Immediate expansion of the playoff to 8 teams
Nov 25, 2014, 7:24 AM
[ in reply to Re: No way in hayull. The SEC's slot in the playoff was secured ] |

would happen THIS year, with an amended list coming out the next week after the last original weeks rankings. The 4 extra spots would ALL be claimed by SEC teams, with them all seeded 1 through 4, so that they would not have to play each other until the second round. Then, if they all lost, the format would be immediately changed to Round Robin, double elimination. And so on, until an eventual SEC National Champion is crowned again. ESPN cannot have it any other way, since this is the year they launched their SEC Network.

Bama would be out with 2 losses...maybe

A bad loss to Auburn, and a bad loss to Mizzou in the SECCG. Possibly (though unlikely) even with only a loss in the SECCG. I don't think the playoff committee would be able to ignore that. However, I'm cynical enough to think that they'll somehow find a way to stick another SEC team in there if Bama falls.

Bama not out with two losses, if...
Nov 24, 2014, 12:11 PM

they lose to Auburn(don't think that will happen) and Miss State loses to Ole Miss, then Bama would still be in the SEC champ game. Win that and they are still in. If all SEC teams end up with at least two losses, the SEC champ game winner would still get in, unless it is MO.
I had been saying, anyone but Bama, but really, my ideal scenario is for Bama to get in the playoff, then lose to whoever in the first round. That would take them down more than getting left out. If they get left out because everyone has a least two losses, then the SEC pundits will be crying, saying the powerful SEC west just beat each other up, but they are still the best.

II don't want the SEC left out of the playoff.

The only way to tip their egg cart is to get them on the field. I have to admit though, I'd love to see the reaction of the SEC homers on ESPiN if they were left out.

Nope. SEC should get 1 team in. NEVER 2 teams.***

Easy here, auburn obviously has to move to #1, bama only would drop to #2, Georgia, since they beat auburn, gets the nod at #3, miss moves to #4, and miss state gets #5.
Since they can't leave an sec team out they make the playoff a 5 team playoff with a rematch of the egg bowl, since it will be a classic smash mouth, tough played game, the play-in game.
