@BeardedVol yes to this ?
This. If anything Alabama is going to the sugar bowl seeing how they will stay ranked higher than us after this horrendous loss. Also LSU finishing 2nd in the SEC will give them a better bowl than us as well I would assume, so I don't think we are getting a NY6 bowl this year.I think given that there's going to be (most likely) 3 two-loss SEC teams, Alabama, LSU, and Tennessee, I'd imagine that LSU will be the first pick if they play decently well against Georgia, then Alabama, then us.
Isnt the Cotton Bowl ranked higher than the Sugar this year ?This. If anything Alabama is going to the sugar bowl seeing how they will stay ranked higher than us after this horrendous loss.

BamaAccording to the selection process of the sugar bowl the sec champion is an automatic qualifier unless they are in the cfp semifinals. Then the next highest ranked sec team is selected.
If we beat vandy, and Georgia beats lsu, I believe that leaves us as the next highest ranked sec team by virtue of beating lsu head to head.
Bama will be be ahead of us in the bowl pecking order for sure. I do not expect us to be in a NY6 bowl now, but probably the first one after the NY6.Where do we stand now , moving forward in the bowl picture ? 10-2 If we beat Vandy is still a very respectable season ! Do we make a NY6 bowl ?
We should be the second pick coming out of the SEC , we beat Bama and LSU .

If LSU is a 2 loss team, they are likely in the playoffs now. LSU is probably going to be a 3 loss team though after they play GA.I think given that there's going to be (most likely) 3 two-loss SEC teams, Alabama, LSU, and Tennessee, I'd imagine that LSU will be the first pick if they play decently well against Georgia, then Alabama, then us.
Doesn’t matter. It’s about the rankings.
It is about the rankings. The CFP selects the teams. Y’all need to get real lolNo it's not, it comes down to money. Would they rather have a 2 loss TN that fans will be exited to see in a NY6 bowl or Alabama where the fans don't give a damn about those bowls. I've heard tons of Ala fans say they don't have to worry about taking off or traveling in January.
The SEC Championship loss will have an effect on whichever team loses. Assuming it is LSU. it will depend on if they stay ranked ahead of us on if they get a bowl pick before us or not.I should have said regular season loses.
I don't think LSU losing to Georgia in the SECCG will count against them too much on the eyes of the selection committee as long as they don't lose poorly.
