I don't get the love for Georgia Tech. Yes it is a very good school, but they are not SEC good. They left for a reason. They are the number two college team in Atlanta and they can't fill a small stadium.
Miami is also another school I don't see in the SEC. They are a small private school, and their stadium is 30 minutes away from campus on a good day. Plus the NCAA hammer is about the come down.
College football is great, but it does not do well when they have to compete with the NFL. Just ask SMU, U of H, Rice, Tulane and Minnesota.
