Bama probably will make the playoffs, not sure UGA is. They have to win 2/3 between us, Texas, and Ole Miss.
While not impossible, I think it is going to be difficult for a 2-loss team to make the playoffs. But that depends upon what happens in the other conferences. Ultimately the top 10 will be made up of the undefeated and 1 loss teams with a few 2 loss teams in the mix.
As of today, there are 4 undefeated SEC teams, Texas, Bama, Missouri and the us good guys. Of the undefeated teams Bama plays us and Missouri. Texas does not play any of the other undefeated teams. The games in October will reduce the undefeated teams. Texas has the best chance IMO to be remain undefeated.
While getting to the SEC championship game should be a goal, the secondary goal for playoff purposes has to be incurred the minimum number of losses.

UGA would get in at 10-2 because of their schedule difficulty. Bama probably would because brand bias alone lol. Ole Miss maybe, Missouri wouldn’t, I think we would if the two Ls are to Bama and UGA.
I also don’t think losers in a conference championship are gonna be punished. We will see

You are assuming that UGA is going to make the conference championship game. I think there is likely going to be several 11-1 teams and maybe an undefeated Texas team when this season ends. If that happens a 2-loss team doesn't make the SEC championship game, and those 1 loss SEC teams end up higher than a 2 loss SEC team. UGA has to win out.
