who they were in a 3-way tie with. BYU, Wyoming and Fresno State hadn’t all played each other that year, so head to head was thrown out

TieBreaker scenarios if we lose 1 game: clear as mud

Order of teams to Cheer against: KState, then Cincy

Cheering for Iowa St. is simplest.

Or just don’t lose

That works too. Obviously winning out and we are in regardless.

It would make zero sense for KState to jump us if we both have 1 loss and BYU has the H2H win

The issue is 3 way ties. We won't be in 2 way tie with KState. Can only be in 3

Three way ties ignore head to head unless all teams played each other, we didnt

There's realistic scenarios that we sneak in with 2 losses if ISU runs the table

I'm not ready to talk about 2 losses.

If it's us and kstate with only 2 losses we are in, if TT or CU have 2 as well

BYUFootballisBack

It's not possible for TT, CU, and KSU to all have 2 losses.

LegitCoug

Correct, I said CU or TT also have 2 losses, we lose the 3 way tie in both cases
