Is it possible Auburn could be a Top 5 team and not win the SEC West

Well Auburn is ranked #6 right now and looks like they would be in the National Title hunt becuase of their record. Add in to the fact that Arkansas is the top team to win the SEC West in the currenbt standings and Auburn is out or would need help to win the SEC Championship or even get their. My theory is that Auburn may not win the SEC West or even the SEC Title game but they will still be in the Top 5 Rankings anyway and maybe a BCS Bowl in January.

Michigan and Ohio State will be playing one another later this month in Ann arbor and Louisville and WEst Vriginia will play one another Thursday night so if Auburn wins out and runs the table, could they go to the National title game even without even winning their division?

Michigan or Ohio State will lose, USC has already lost, someone will lose in WVU/Louisville, and Auburn is ranked ahead of them or slightly below them, will the tigers move up in the rankings just by default or rising up when the teams above them lose?

Anything could happen in the crazy world of NCAA Football.
