depends on your definition of the word "next"

I can see it interpreted either way based on how the conference worded it.

This is the interpretation against us....

...looking at the NEXT team or group of teams down the standings. I think that wording is not as intended (I doubt if a team was alone at #1 that a tie for #2 would ignore record against #1) but I think it intends to imply that you don't use the current cohort of teams (2/2)

At this point if BYU is 11-1 they are automatically in the CCG. . .

Yes, we also have the 2-way tiebreaker with ISU if they lose to KState.

Zoobieman

2:28pm

yes, but only with them. Kansas St. wins the 3-way tiebreaker

Coog4Life

Done, BYU is the Visitor in the CCG.

I think it’s reasonable to interpret the phrase

Coog4Life

Fair enough, The use of the word next could change the meaning

Why doesn't anyone mention a one loss Colorado team. They have a pretty clear

Good point. . . What if it was a 4-team tie. . .

Give me a counter example then.

I think if 3 or more teams are tied with the same record they don't use head to

After the 1 seed is placed, they will use the 2 team tiebreaker for the 2nd seed

Zoobieman

2:29pm

According to the tiebreaker rules I read...they are seeded by their opponents

imdocrob

2:52pm

It's pretty clear in the 3-way rules, after a winner is established of the 3

2:56pm

Read these rules instead?

Zoobieman

So how do they determine the "1" team that has the advantage? I must

I was responding to your comment which had nothing to do with how #1 determined

Zoobieman

i am not trying to dispute you but again I ask...how if 3 teams are 11-1 who

imdocrob

We should sticky the tiebreaker rules at the top.... this gets pulled over multiple times a day

Crazy Joe Davola

2:29pm

Highly likely. But even likelier if we are 12-0.

2:31pm

You think the big XII gets two teams in?

2:34pm

I would hope the Big 12 gets 2 teams into the Big 12 Championship game

2:35pm

Well, if the SEC had their say in it . . .

Submariner

2:39pm

If the SEC could choose, they would just replace B12 CCG with Texas/Oklahoma

Zoobieman

4 way tie at 8-1 and our 1 loss is to Kansas.
