The storm is brewing for sure
Our best bet is for Bama to win the SEC champ game. They're getting in the CFP no matter what, as I guess the Saban effect is still in place, so maybe they can eliminate someone else.
Surely then our convincing win will mean something!

Never thought I'd see the day when I would be for Gators and the Buckeyes but it is in the Vols best interest!I sure hope Texas beat's A&M and Notre Dame loses!

I think Indiana should be out if they lose to Ohio St.
If the loser of the SECCG has 3 losses are they out?

Yes unless it's Bama.
There will be too many 2 loss teams that didn't play in the champ game.

We've been discussing this a lot in my little group ... I think the only way that's "fair" (funny word to use in this situation) is to disregard the championship game for the loser. ie a 10-2 team that loses its championship is looked at as if it were 10-2, not 10-3. Otherwise they're going to find themselves in situations where teams don't want to play for their conference championship and risk getting knocked out of the playoffs.
I think the 2 Championship teams make it regardless of the 3rd loss. I believe you get into resume comparison between all the 10-2 teams outside of the Championship game to see who is the odd one out. As was said before if you are going to get knocked out from playing the championship game then what would be the point, because the loser of the game turns into a victim of success.
I agree that whoever loses sec champ game should be in and that loss should be overlooked
