Auburn, Alabama, and Georgia should all be safely in the NY6 now, so all we need to do is finish 9-3 and we'll be headed for Orlando to play against a Big 10 team like Penn State, Michigan, or Michigan State.

I'd love to play Penn State. Beating them in a bowl game would look good for next season.
Any possibility of an ACC team? I know that they changed the tie in to ACC/Big 10/Notre Dame recently.
At 9-3 I would expect a ton of hype for Mullen vs Meyer
I'd love to play Michigan, Penn State, or OSU. Either would be awesome.Quote:

LSU was in citrus last season. Auburn will be playoff or NY6Quote:

No we won't. Auburn is going to be ranked high enough to sneak into the NY6 even if they lose to Alabama, and there's a 100% chance we're ahead of LSU in the pecking order if we both finish 9-3.Quote:

Yep. I think it happens exactly like you saidQuote:

Which Aubbie team will show up against Bama; the one that beat us and UGA or the one which lost to LSU?Quote:

Auburn (11-2) to Playoffs
Alabama (11-1) to Orange Bowl. Should be ranked 5th or 6th and get the SEC/B1G/ND autobid to the Orange. Also possible they could get in the Playoffs.
Georgia (11-2) to Peach Bowl. Should still be ranked in the 8-10 range and still get a NY6 bowl. Will be in line in front of Notre Dame.
Mississippi State (9-3) to Citrus Bowl
Scenario: Alabama beats Auburn and Georgia to win the SEC
Alabama (12-1) to Playoffs
Georgia (11-2) to Orange Bowl maybe or otherwise another NY6 Bowl.
Auburn (9-3) would be ranked in the 9-11 range and get another NY6 Bowl, probably Peach.
Mississippi State (9-3) to Citrus Bowl
Scenario: Alabama wins Iron Bowl, but Georgia wins the SECCG
Georgia (12-1) to Playoffs
Alabama (12-1) to Playoffs maybe, or otherwise to Orange Bowl
Auburn (9-3) would be ranked in the 9-11 range and get another NY6 Bowl, probably Peach.
Mississippi State (9-3) to Citrus Bowl
Scenario: Auburn wins Iron Bowl, but Georgia wins the SECCG
Georgia (12-1) to Playoffs
Auburn (10-3) would be ranked in the 9-11 range - the Committee won't punish them for having a 3rd loss in a championship game.
Alabama (11-1) could be in Playoffs, otherwise Orange or other NY6
Mississippi State (9-3) to Citrus Bowl
The only thing that might screw us is if Georgia loses to Kentucky or Georgia Tech, but as Georgia beats those and we go 9-3, Citrus is our destination.
Who keeps beating Bama the second time?
Good catch and fixed.Quote:

Would the Auburn rematch against GA be more competitive being played in Atlanta?Quote:

You have to put media hype out of your mind & actually look at talent & teams. Penn State is absolutely no where close to Bama.
Good assessment. OSU is so Jekyll and Hyde this year. One week they look awesome next week look like doo doo.Quote:
