My demented mind often goes to these unlikely scenarios. Just think what a meltdown would ensue if the top ranked defensive team in the SEC (Missouri) won the East. Double down and imagine that the runner up who backs into the game due to the Tiger's postseason ban, then wins the conference. Would love to hear the talking heads spin that one.
It would just prove that the SEC is the most powerful conference top to bottom. It’s a gauntlet every week. The fact that other teams get to play in weak ### conferences should disqualify them from the CFP and the only fair and decent thing to do is have four SEC teams in the playoff. The end.
