    Looks like if we beat Ole Miss and MSU defeats Bama we would win the West tiebreaker due to a better record vs MSU. Here's the tiebreaker rules.


    For a two-team tie:
    1. head-to-head; we split
    2. division record (10 games); both teams would be 8-2
    3. record vs. No. 1 team in division proceeding through the No. 6 team if necessary; Since we split with Bama it would come down to the third place team and that would be MSU if they beat Bama We swept MSU, thus we would be the west champs
    4. non- division record (6 games);
    5. record vs. No. 1 team in the opposite division proceeding through the No. 6 team if necessary;
    6. coin flip by the Commissioner.

    Bama wins because they'd be 9-1 against the West. Bama's lost to Vandy, UK, Florida, and LSU. We have loses to UK, UT, Bama, and Arkansas.

    Ole Miss gave State a tough time. We can not put a stinker on the court Wednesday night.

    IF Bama loses, win we outright. The only scenario where they'd be a tie and it came down to our record v. MSU would be IF...

    Bama splits, beats Auburn, loses to MSU
    LSU splits, beats Ole Miss, loses to Vandy

    If LSU loses to Ole Miss, Bama wins tie breakers with one win.
