Here's the Big 12 schedule this weekend. Every game has big implications

For those smarter than me, who do we want to win each of these games?

MaxxPower

Besides BYU over Kansas, the big one is K-State over ASU.

Do we want Utah to beat Colorado?

MaxxPower

No, I want Colorado to pummel utah.

Japan Coug

Ok agreed. I'll rephrase the question:

MaxxPower

Probably worse for our CFP chances and doesn't help CCG chances much

If we win and Colorado loses it locks up our CCG bid

molodyets

Does it?

bythenumbers

In that scenario, the CCG would be KSU vs BYU or ASU vs BYU

RGGeemer

Nov 12, 7:41am

I don’t think this is true, if ISU and ASU win out and BYU loses twice.

Japan Coug

Nov 12, 8:21am

We win the tiebreakers unless Colorado loses *again*

RGGeemer

Nov 12, 8:24am

How so?

RGGeemer

In that scenario, we would lose to both Houston and ASU. This whole thread is

Correct. Here is an explanation of the tiebreaker scenario:

RGGeemer

I think it’s slightly better for BYU’s already-very-good CCG chances if Colorado

Japan Coug

Nov 12, 6:56am

If Colorado loses 1, BYU is almost guaranteed the CCG with 1 more W

RGGeemer

Nov 12, 7:05am

I believe that if BYU wins, ASU loses, and Colorado or ISU loses, then BYU

Japan Coug

Nov 12, 8:27am

I would say no

bythenumbers

We never want Utah to win ever. They are the worst and we never root for them.

K State is an 8.5 point favorite vs AZ State. FPI has AZ State as a

Baylor, Cinci, KState. With those wins we can lose two and still make the CCG.

bythenumbers

Nov 12, 6:46am

Looking at this, I believe it's possible to clench our spot in the CCG this week

bythenumbers

Nov 12, 6:54am

Clench?

Or clinch

Haha I was looking for that gif and couldn't find it

bythenumbers

Go Utes?

RGGeemer

Nov 12, 7:04am

For the two game buffer or for avoiding Colorado?

The 435

Nov 12, 7:27am

Both

RGGeemer

Nov 12, 7:41am

Why would you want to avoid Colorado? They’re a good matchup for us.

Refs would be on their side 🙂
