Ole Miss head football coach Lane Kiffin threw several SEC coaching peers under the bus on November 18, though none by name, by claiming several of them don’t want to reach the conference championship game because of the risks.
"The conference championship could have a big impact both ways. I've talked to some other coaches, and the feeling is that they don't want to get in it. The reward to get a bye (in the playoffs) versus the risk of getting knocked out completely....is a really big risk,” Kiffin said (h/t The Rebel Walk).

If that's what they want then they should go for it.

I love the competitive attitude.
Could we lose the seccg and miss the playoffs....yup. But, we could win it and get a bye in the first round. I'm confident we can beat the Texas teams.

The SECCG killed UGA last year. It’s a different system this year, but the same old animal. Still a group of people making decisions. They could do it again.

This is the only politically correct stance to express publicly. Impossible to know what they really prefer. Personally, we are too thin at some positions for me to want us to play in it. We know FOR SURE that we will play a difficult opponent for the conference title. We DON’T know for sure if we will play a difficult opponent in the playoff.

I'm struggling to understand the logic behind that.
We are too thin at some positions for us to play in conference game, and then you went and said we know for sure that we will play a difficult opponent for conference title. Then you follow that up with We don't know for sure if we play a difficult opponent in the playoff. I need a shot of bourbon after processing all of that.
I would not want a player on the Bama team that thought otherwise and not for polical correctness. That is what competitors do and if you are at Bama you are a competitor.
