Kansas, they will still have one loss against common opponents, as will Iowa State and CU, they lost to K-State. It will then go to highest ranked opponent record, which would be K-State. BYU wins that tie breaker against both.

Listened to Kurtz explain B12 championship & I think BYU has to win out to get

His assumption is that the tie breaker will be decided by conference opponent

No, I think Kurtz just missed the fact that once the first seed is placed the

There is some ambiguity on if the K St win would count or not. The wording in

I read that argument, but how would it not? Once K-state is chosen as seed one,

A couple of items: 1) It reads 'NEXT highest seeded team' which implies the team

RGGeemer

How is KSU not the next-highest in this scenario? It doesn’t say “next-lowest”.

I agree #1 doesn't make sense. Most people don't interpret it that way. #2

It's ambiguous

BYU gets in CCG in all 1-loss tiebreakers if our 1 L is to ASU

Maybe - there is ambiguity in that interpretation. The online tiebreaker

He gives a good breakdown of why he interprets it this way here:

This is just some internet rando. His opinion is no better than anyone else’s,

I don't agree with it either. . . But I have accepted that not everything

Sure, I hope he's wrong. All that matters is how the conference interprets it.

RGGeemer

7:12am

Unless ISU loses to KSU. Then we get in ONLY if our loss is to ASU

SouthernCoug

Isn't that what I said? We get in no matter what if our L is to ASU.

RGGeemer

I thought we could lose to Houston and still be in as well (but not both)

It's a good thing BYU is at their easier part of their schedule right now.

I am just going to wait after the Kansas game to buy tickets. . .

BYU has the predicted best record based on past performance and opponents

NYC and Japan

Colorado would need to lose another one and Iowa St would need to beat KSU

We are in the CCG in all 1-loss tiebreakers if our L is to ASU.

RGGeemer

8:25am

Ok. I believe you. So we better beat Utah.

Blue Ghost

8:39am

If Iowa State beats KState, 8-1 BYU would win the tiebreaker against Colorado

Zoobieman

8:40am

What is the tiebreaker? We have one of the easiest Big-12 Schedules

Blue Ghost

8:45am

I think we would be in due to record against common opponents (7-0 vs 6-1)

SouthernCoug

8:53am

Record vs common opponents.

RGGeemer

9:03am

If we win out, we are in. If ISU wins out, we are in with one loss to anyone.

Doesn't Colorado already have 2 losses?
