The latest College Football Playoff rankings are very crucial in determining which SEC team will go to the Sugar Bowl, and Auburn and Florida are neck-and-neck.
If the highest ranked SEC team goes to the four team playoffs, then the next highest ranked team in the College Football Playoff rankings goes to the Sugar Bowl.
After the release of the latest rankings Tuesday night that team would be the Auburn Tigers as they were ranked 14th, but just one spot ahead of Florida.
Last week Auburn was ranked 13th and Florida was 15th before both teams lost to their rivals.
