What's interesting is that now there is a chance for an all SEC Championship Game.

Going to be a lot of moaning if that happens. Which I kind of agree. I think the CFP Committee needs some wiggle room and should have put Bama-GA playing each other in the semis.

That's a good point. They may want to fine-tune the selection rules to ensure that if two teams from the same conference make the playoffs, they play each other in the first game.

It's worth noting that this would not be a good thing in a year like 2012, where it was pretty much agreed that Alabama and LSU were the two best teams in the country. More than 40 players from that game went on to play in the NFL (that number itself is staggering), and between the two teams there were 11 future NFL first-round draft picks (maybe even more amazing).
