...I'm not seeing it.

It's certainly possible that a 2-loss SEC champion other than Auburn could make the playoff, but I think they'd need help. They wouldn't be ahead of a 1-loss Notre Dame, nor a 1-loss ACC Champion (either Clemson or Miami, whose loss would be to Notre Dame), they wouldn't be ahead of the Big Ten champion...and they probably wouldn't be ahead of a 1-loss Big 12 Champion. So for Kentucky to make the playoff, even if they somehow win out, would probably need one of these to happen:

1. Iowa State wins the Big 12. Preferably in the fashion of "Oklahoma State wins out for the regular season, Oklahoma beats TCU, Iowa State wins out except for the game against Oklahoma State and gets the undisputed second place by virtue of their head-to-head over both OU and TCU and then wins the rematch with OK State".
2. NC State wins out to take the ACC.

If both of those happen, a 2-loss SEC champ would definitely still be good...oh, wait, they might still get blocked by a 1-loss runner-up from their own conference, because LOL committee. The Pac-12 is also a consideration, but seems unlikely to be a concern.

Alternatively, Miami winning out completely helps because it knocks both Notre Dame and Clemson out and replaces them with just Miami.
