I've read through tiebreaker scenarios for one conference or another (and it's admittedly been a few years now), I noticed that that a poll or BCS/CFB rankings determined placement in the last tiebreaker. I'm pleased this rendition of the B10 and Big12 have at least removed that bias.

Its stupid to have any conference bigger than 10 programs.

ACC could have 3 unbeaten teams. I believe all are favored rest of season

How do they even determine who goes to the championship game??

The last tiebreaker is (horrifyingly) usually a poll. So, popularity contest.

11:14am

Big does random draw and Big12 uses a coin flip as the last tiebreaker

All four P4a released new tiebreakers this offseason

It's also insanely unlikely to ever reach that step of the tiebreaker

Colorado has 2 losses. Are you referring to conference play?

Colorado

10:45am

Yes

The Y's Insider

The good news is BYU would be in in that case if our L is to ASU or Houston

RGGeemer

10:45am

Depends on who we lost to... ASU or Houston we are in, Utah or Kansas we are out

BYUFootballisBack

10:48am

Yep fixed

RGGeemer

Yeah, it’s good for us - at least this year.

The Y's Insider

I'm hoping Indiana, Penn St, and Oregon all remain undefeated

DataMouth

10:47am

Is that because they had the easiest BIG schedule of the 3?

BYUFootballisBack

10:49am

If they all stay unbeaten that means Ohio State will finish with at least 3 Ls

CaliWG

10:50am

True

DataMouth

10:51am

I don't see that happening.

EM_Puma

They all Play Ohio State

DataMouth

Where are you seeing that tiebreaker rule?

BYUFootballisBack

10:52am

hmm. I really thought scoring margin of common

DataMouth

11:08am

Yeah the P4 all released new tiebreaker rules after realignment

BYUFootballisBack

11:20am

This site says it would be Penn State and Oregon in the championship

BYUFootballisBack

10:51am

Agreed. I don't like going years between playing teams. But if BYU goes 11-1

Eliminating divisions is going to mess things up.

Spot on.

The Y's Insider

Bingo, they need to bring divisions back. It at least guarantees you don't have

I'm good with cutting down to 10 based solely on this years football results.

It would be interesting to see the large conferences hold tournaments that

Simple. We just need 2 divisions, like other conferences have!!
