as requested by @mufootball1 because I can't sleep and have to do something to fill the next 12 hours till kickoff in the biggest Chiefs game of the last 49 years, I went through the SEC football records since Missouri and Texas A&M joined in 2012.
In figuring these, the only tiebreaker I used on finish was the title game. The team that won it finished first, the team that lost it finished second or tied for second (even if the loss in the title game may have technically knocked them below second in terms of winning percentage).
A note when comparing to the basketball deal: Average finishes are probably higher across the board. There are fewer games, so there are more ties. Unless you go winless, it's almost impossible to finish 14th (which means solo last). And even then, sometimes you wouldn't finish last.
