That other thread got me to thinking. Using that calculator, I thought I would see how a few different scenarios would play out.

First, as @Cliff stated, if basically all the favorites win out, the #1 seed in Atlanta would be Texas and the #2 seed would be Alabama.
1. Texas (7 - 1)
2. Alabama (6 - 2)
Above Georgia, Ole Miss, Tennessee, and Texas A&M based on conference opponent win percentage (0.5).​

Lets play with that a bit.

If Missouri were to lose to Mississippi State this weekend, and again next week to Arkansas. That changes it a bit.
1. Texas (7 - 1)
2. Georgia (6 - 2)
Above Alabama, Ole Miss, Tennessee, and Texas A&M based on conference opponent win percentage (0.4844).​

Nothing changes if Mizzou wins even just one of their remaining games. It would still be Texas/Alabama

What about if some real chaos happened? What if Kentucky were to pull off the big upset this weekend and hand Texas a 2nd loss? Well that puts Alabama in as the 1 seed, and UGA in as the 2
1. Alabama (6 - 2)
Above Georgia, Ole Miss, Tennessee, and Texas based on conference opponent win percentage (0.5156).​
2. Georgia (6 - 2)
With Ole Miss, Tennessee, and Texas, below Alabama based on conference opponent win percentage (0.4844).​
With Tennessee, above Ole Miss and Texas based on record vs common conference opponents all played one time (3-0).​
Above Tennessee based on head-to-head record (1-0).​

What if Oklahoma were to rip off a win this weekend against Bama?
1. Texas (7 - 1)
2. Georgia (6 - 2)
With Texas A&M, above Ole Miss and Tennessee based on conference opponent win percentage (0.4531).​
Above Texas A&M based on record vs common conference opponents all played one time (4-0).​

What about if Oklahoma did that, and A&M beat Texas in the final weekend?
1. Texas A&M (7 - 1)
2. Georgia (6 - 2)
With Tennessee and Texas, above Ole Miss based on record vs common conference opponents all played one time (3-0).​
Above Tennessee and Texas based on round-robin record due to a round-robin sweep (2-0).​

The possibilities can get crazy, but I am just trying to figure out things that could actually happen.

But here is one that is crazy....one that would just never happen, but wanted to see what it would do anyway. This weekend, Auburn beats A&M, Oklahoma beats Bama, Kentucky takes out Texas. Then on the final weekend, Auburn beats Bama, A&M Beats Texas, and Vandy beats Tennessee........
1. Georgia (6 - 2)
With Texas A&M, above Ole Miss based on conference opponent win percentage (0.4531).​
Above Texas A&M based on record vs common conference opponents all played one time (4-0).​
2. Texas A&M (6 - 2)
With Georgia, above Ole Miss based on conference opponent win percentage (0.4531).​
Below Georgia based on record vs common conference opponents all played one time (3-1).​

And.....Just because I am an Ole Miss fan, I wanted to try different scenarios to see what it would take to get the Rebels into the game.......There is a chance, but it would be more likely that I would win the Powerball and the MegaMillions in the same week, plus go on a date with Jennifer Anniston and the wife be ok with it. But here it is anyway(Im posting a screen shot, I aint typing out all that stuff)
