I figure 6 teams control their @CFBPlayoff destiny: Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Miami, Notre Dame & Oklahoma. Everyone else needs help.

We have less control than the others on your list with two losses, but yes....

Wouldn't LSU have as much control of their destiny as Auburn. If they upset Bama they would have the edge over them and Auburn. Slim chance but so is ours.

Not with a loss to Troy

[WDG 109]

LSU blown out by MSU lost to Troy. I suppose we have better losses if there is such a thing as a good loss

I was basing it on possible SEC champions. Point taken

Exactly. If LSU wins out, we don’t make it to the SEC Championship and we have no chance whatsoever. We don’t control our own destiny because we have to have LSU lose to even have a chance.

Losing to LSU was not that big of a deal according Gus.  What an idiot.

If we had won, there could be an outside chance that top 3 in nation are SEC teams. 

I'M FEELING GREAT!

I don't think we are on the list, and I would add Ohio State, Wisconsin, Clemson, and maybe even Washington or Virginia Tech.

[Brad_ATX 13,653]

We don't control our own destiny in any way, shape, or form right now and would need a bunch of help to do it.

If LSU wins out (not likely), they win the West.  Thus we need Bama to beat LSU and then we have to win out.

Also, it's highly likely that a one-loss Bama makes the playoff over a hypothetical two-loss Auburn, especially if the Iron Bowl is a close game.  Just look at Ohio State / Penn State last year for precedent.  Only way that doesn't happen is if we blow Bama out, but we haven't beaten them by more than 10 points in 50 years, so don't hold your breath.

Definitely need LSU to lose to Bama and for UGA(twice) and Bama to only lose to us.

But to be honest, I think it’d be hard to leave out a conference champion with 3 top 10 wins.

I really hate to break this to you but hell would have to freeze over , not once but twice for AU to have any chance in making the CFP, but hey I’m not going to interrupt your dreaming. By the way are you Gus or did Gus ask you to start this discussion?

[Eagle Eye 7 2,535]

By the way most of folks he guesses  are wrong.

my best guess at this point 

uat/uga winner if both are undefeated going in

Clemson/Miami 

OSU

Notre Dame/ big 12 top 1 loss team
