And so one of them would have gotten left out to the benefit of one of the

other division teams that were similarly flawed?

And I would have preferred to play Cincinnati, far less talent.

If BYU had shown up against Kansas... we were in

BYU showed up better than Iowa St did and ISU still got in

Indy Coug

BYU also showed up better than Iowa State did vs ASU

This is the level of self deprecation that is funny to me

Divisions are bad. No serious conf. still has divisions. All tried. All stopped.

How would divisions have helped in our case?

BYU, ASU, and Colorado would have all played head to head.

Point is that there would be some actual head to head data to use.

Yeah, watching Kansas State vs. Iowa State was hard knowing we were the better

That dumb tiebreaker gave the big 12 a terrible CCG

Ouch

And after seeing Iowa State get destroyed, everyone has said that BYU should have been in

This is disappointing, any indication that the BIG12 will modify the tiebreaker?

The problem aren’t the tiebreakers, the problems are oversized conferences and no divisions.

Indy Coug

12/12/24 5:53pm

Agreed. We don't like the tiebreaker...but honestly it makes sense

Oh….okay

The secondary tie breaker didn’t even take into account ASU’s record

BYU was a few breaks from going undefeated and a few breaks

or we beat kansas

I still think conference SoS is a very frustrating way to determine tiebreakers.

The solution is to win all your games.

DudeBro

12/12/24 8:10pm

Nobody did that.

2ndTrombone

12/12/24 8:24pm

And since nobody did that, and there weren't enough decisive head-to-head

russkiejedi

That sucks. Also, why is your x profile pic a tiger?
