If A&M beats Texas and is 6-2, but Tennessee beats Vanderbilt and is also 6-2, why does A&M go to the SEC championship instead of Tennessee?

The SEC has announced its set of tiebreakers for the 2024 football season with the addition of Oklahoma and Texas and the elimination of divisions in the newly expanded 16-team league.

In the event of a tie between teams competing for a spot in the SEC championship game, the following procedures will be used in descending order until the tie is broken:

  • A. Head-to-head competition between the tied teams.
  • B. Record versus all common conference opponents among the tied teams.
  • C. Record against highest (best) placed common opponent in the conference standings and proceeding through the standings among the tied teams.
  • D. Cumulative conference winning percentage of all conference opponents among the tied teams.
  • E. Capped relative scoring margin versus all conference opponents among the tied teams. Formula will include a cap of 42 points scored on offense and 48 points allowed on defense.
  • F. Random draw of the tied teams.

I'd expect Michigan to flip a few more. The best money can buy.

Unfortunately I don't have faith in the current coaching staff.
A team of stacked players will find a way, regardless of coaching staff
Oregon was drawing players on Nike and Swag alone, and their roster is stacked

Roster can often overcome coaching
