Does anybody know how Ole Miss got in the outback bowl with 5 losses when we were supposed to go to the dukes Mayo bowl with 5 losses?

The SEC sent a team to the CFP, had 3 in the NY6 bowls (Peach, Cotton, & Orange), and Auburn went to the Citrus as the next best team.

After the Citrus the SEC then uses a "best matchup & no repeat games" philosophy to place teams in bowls. Ole Miss was one of those teams and was placed in the Outback bowl.
