Bama, Michigan, Georgia, Cincy seems fine. So does Michigan, Bama, Cincy, Georgia.
Basically no one likes rematches, so I’m curious why you guys would want that?

The question the Comittee will have to ask themselves is what’s worse, a rematch in the semis or a potential rematch in the Championship game. An all SEC championship final is not ideal for ratings or nationwide interest (ie $$$). Match them up in the semi and it’s guaranteed one of the teams in the final is from elsewhere. Keep them separate and there’s a chance that still works out but also a chance they both win.
