In 2019 South Carolina only defeated 3 SECe teams, Kentucky Vanderbilt and Georgia. Georgia on the other hand defeated, Vanderbilt, Tennessee, Kentucky, Florida, and Missouri from the East.
So a 4-8 USCe still doesn't make it into an SEC playoff over an 11-1 Georgia in this scenario.
You're not following the scenario.
Again, in the scenario there are 4 divisions of 4 teams, and only the 3 division games count. If USCe's 3 SEC wins had come against the division*, then they go to the SEC playoff over 11-1 Georgia.
* @sjt18 didn't indicate who he'd add to the SEC to get to 16 teams, so obviously there are some variables at play. A division of UGA, USCe, UK, and Vandy seems unlikely, but not impossible. But even in a scenario wherein Vandy or Kentucky was outside of the division, a USCe team with a 2-1 division record would win the tiebreaker over a UGA team with the same division record.
