For those that dare to dream. And for the mentally deranged. 1) LSU wins out and finishes at 6-2 2) Ole Miss loses to LSU on the road and Auburn at home 3) Mississippi State loses to Kentucky, Alabama and Ole Miss on the road 4) Alabama loses to LSU on the road 5) Auburn loses to Alabama and Georgia on the road LSU wins the 3 way tie-breaker with wins over Ole Miss and Alabama. Les is More.
I'm not sure. I looked up the new tie-breaking procedures (used to be BCS ranking involved), and I don't know how #3 is handled. Combined head-to-head record among the tied teams. Record of the tied teams within the division. Records against the team within the division with the best overall (divisional and non-divisional) Conference record and proceeding through the division. Multiple ties within the division will be broken from first to last. Complete record vs. non-division teams. Complete record vs. all common non-divisional teams. Record vs. common non-divisional team with the best overall Conference (divisional and non-divisional) record and proceeding through other common non-divisional teams based on their order of finish within their division. Best cumulative Conference winning percentage of non-divisional opponents (Note: If two teams' non-divisional opponents have the same cumulative record, then the two-team tiebreaker procedures apply. If four teams are tied, and three teams' non-divisional opponents have the same cumulative record, the three-team tiebreaker procedures will be used beginning with #1 Coin flip of the tied teams with the team with the odd result being the representative (Example: If there are two teams with tails and one team with heads, the team with heads is the representative)
Hell weirder things are happening in the NFL. Freaking Saints are still in the hunt for their division, only one game back from Carolina. It is a weird weird world in both college and pro football this year.
Could get even crazier with 5 two loss teams. 1) LSU wins out and finishes at 6-2 2) Ole Miss loses to LSU on the road and Auburn at home and finishes 6-2 3) Mississippi State loses to Alabama and Ole Miss on the road and finishes 6-2 4) Alabama loses to LSU on the road and finishes 6-2 5) Auburn loses to Alabama on the road and finishes 6-2 And that is probably more likely than the scenario in the OP.
I don't want to sound like a negatiger, but if our passing game doesn't improve a lot, we will lose to old piss and the gumps and neither game will be close (unless "bad bo" shows up)!
According to the tie breaker izzy posted, the first tie breaker is combined head-to-head among all tied teams. In the scenario I mentioned, all five teams would be 2-2 against the other 4.
