Ah. I missed the caveat to #2 and focused on not having any common opponents yet
1) No head-to-head
2) Record against next highest placed common opponent
- when arriving at another group of tied teams while comparing records, use each team's win percentage against the COLLECTIVE tied teams as a group, rather than performance against individual tied teams.

So, it looks like Texas Tech would be #1 because they are 2-0 against the group of 2-1 teams; while BYU and Iowa State are only 1-0.


Then, you use the same tie-breaker process again between BYU and Iowa State.

3) Win percentage against all common conference opponents

Our common opponent with Iowa State so far is Baylor - whom we both beat.

4) Combined win percentage in conference games of conference opponents (strength of schedule)

BYU and Iowa State both have 3-6 Big 12 strength of schedule...

5) Total number of wins in a 12-game season.

BYU and Iowa State are both 6-0

6) Highest ranking by SportSource Analytics (team Rating Score metric) following the last weekend of regular-season games.

Not sure what these rankings are right now...but based on the polls, Iowa State would get the nod ahead of BYU.

Texas Tech v. Iowa State for the Big 12 championship.

Gratefully, lots of football left to be played.
