Yeah, not a great look for preseason predictions. Some bad whiffs all around.

There are 6 teams that can finish with 1 loss or fewer in Big 12. But they all

We just need to win!

Seems crazy that there are so many teams we don't play.

9 games in a 16 team conf.

This is the new normal with these huge conferences and no divisions. It leads to all these weird tie breaker scenarios

If we had 1 loss right now, this situation would be really frustrating. I hope

The KSU vs ISU game will most likely determine who goes to CCG. Love a BYU/ISU CCG but BYU still has to win.
Soupie

Which is bad news for us when it comes to possible tiebreakers. This means we

Crazy to see that BYU has played/will play the big12 current bottom 7 teams!

Bottom 7 after 4 games is not necessarily same after 9 games

Especially when you consider preseason predicted records...

I don't see Utah on that list. Where are they?
Sparkling Delirium

The list does not include teams not in contention, or which really really suck.
All-American

That was kind of the point

The point being that Utah really really sucks, just to be clear.

It's about Prestige too. We want in and we want to face KSU

Did you miss the game earlier this season. BYU already beat KSU by 29 pts.
Soupie

Yeah - Yet KSU still has the most national respect IMO - Let's beat them again

Feel that's shifted but who cares anyway? Keep getting scoreboard & it won't matter.

CO would get us a ton of eyeballs in the CCG. Hard to believe the committee

Remarkable. At the beginning of the year we thought BYU's schedule was stacked.

The most important loss that we need is this weekend. Colorado needs to lose

I may be rooting for Utah to beat Colorado....

if we have only 1 loss we are still guaranteed to make the CCG
realisticCoug42
12:06pm
I'm not sure that is true. I've counted 7 different "tie scenarios" possible
rcbyufan
12:09pm
it depends on common opponents and who the loss is to.
molodyets

Not guaranteed - depends on tiebreakers. We really need K State to keep

Crazy how bad preseason predictions were. All 5 play 2 or 3 games…ISU 3

I could realistically see BYU, K state, Iowa St, and CU all have one loss

That is the only 4 way tie possible.

And probably puts us at #4 in that scenario:(

If there's a 4 way tie at 8-1:
molodyets

Can you walk me through that? I would have thought K St and ISU would get in
RGGeemer
2:23pm
Or would K State win the 1st tiebreaker and we win the 2nd because we beat K St?
RGGeemer
2:24pm
The only way that 4 way tie can happen is if ISU's only loss is to KSU.
molodyets
2:33pm
Are we sure KSU would win the 4-way tiebreaker with SOS? Or is that an

Who is in if Iowa St is undefeated and BYU and Colo both 1 loss?

Depends on where K State ends up compared to other teams we and Colorado both
RGGeemer

We are in. We beat KState and Colorado lost to them.
rcbyufan
12:47pm
Unless we lose to UCF and they end up higher than K State. Just depends at this

This is technically correct. If UCF wins 5 in a row and KState loses 3, we
