What exactly are the tie breakers for conf without a championship game (big east). Dont plan on needing it but would like to know just incase

AmphibiousRodent wrote:News update: Iowa State's Week 11 game against Oklahoma finally ended with a 6-3 upset by the Sooners. That means Iowa State's game this week against Kansas State is now for the league championship. A KState win would create a 3-way tie atop the Big-12 standings, but both ISU and KSU hold a tiebreaker over Missouri (Iowa State won 37-34 in Week 7 and Kansas State won 30-29 in Week 6). These are exciting times in the Big-12.

EDIT: I just looked again, and it looks like Kansas State's Week 12 game will end in a Texas upset over KSU. So that will throw a wrench in the works. I guess things aren't as clear as I thought.

Iowa State's loss means BYU is the only remaining undefeated team left. Michigan State, Iowa State and Ball State all have one loss, and everyone else has two or more.

Also, #14 Michigan's 28-23 win over #4 Ohio State this week means #1 Michigan State will not play in the Big Ten championship game.

It wont matter, hes sweeping me in our last game. I have had the worst dice ever in this tourney this game and he got to go first in every game as well. Oh well. Better luck next season i guess.

From the Big East website:

TWO-WAY TIE
The winner of the head to head match-up will represent the BIG EAST in the Bowl Championship Series.

THREE-WAY TIE
A "MINI-CONFERENCE" IS CREATED AMONGST THE THREE TIED TEAMS

Scenario I:
All three teams have either a 6-1 or 5-2 record and have each won one game and lost one game against the other tied teams in the mini-conference. In this case, the highest ranked team amongst the three earns the bid. If two of the three teams are tied for the highest ranking, the bid is earned by the team winning the head-to-head match up.

Scenario II:
All three teams have 5-2 records, and within the mini-conference, Team A is 2-0, Team B is 1-1, and Team C is 0-2. Team A earns bid regardless of ranking.

FOUR-WAY TIE
A "MINI-CONFERENCE" IS CREATED AMONGST THE FOUR TIED TEAMS

Scenario I:
In the mini-conference, Teams A & B are 2-1, and Teams C & D are 1-2. The higher ranked of the 2-1 teams earns the bid. If the 2-1 teams tie for the highest ranking, the bid goes to the team that won the head-to-head match up.

Scenario II:
In the mini-conference, Team A is 3-0, Team B is 2-1, Team C is 1-2, and Team D is 0-3. Team A earns bid regardless of ranking.

Applying this to our the CC version of the Big East, if WVA, Rutgers and Pitt all wind up 6-1 and they are all 1-1 against each other, then rankings would break the tie.

#15 UNC knocks off #12 Duke 38-14. UNC will now face Florida State in the ACC Championship Game.

Despite chronically poor field position, the Clemson Tigers managed to win by a touchdown in Week 12 at NC State. A seemingly interminable first quarter saw both teams swap field goals. Clemson put up three more field goals against a NC State touchdown to head into the locker room up 2 at half, 12-10. Both teams offenses returned to the field reenergized in the second half, but Clemson's three touchdowns and a late field goal put the Tigers over the top in a 36-29 victory.

Clemson then traveled to South Carolina in their final game of the season where they put a whooping on the 18th-ranked team in the country. Both teams offenses struggled to capitalize on red zone opportunities in a game that saw eight field goals and only two touchdowns. Clemson's share of those field goals (6) turned out to be the deciding factor in the 28 to 13 win.

The final two weeks of the season marked another rise in the rollercoaster season that Clemson has posted this year. Losing their coach four weeks into the season, Clemson showed flashes of brilliance under new coach Agentcom, including wins against the two ranked teams they played. The pinnacles were matched by devastating losses, however, that ensured Clemson was out of the hunt for an ACC championship with two weeks remaining in the season, despite playing in a division (ACC Atlantic) that struggled through much of the season. The division title ended up going to Florida State, who managed only a 5-3 start in their first eight games despite playing no ranked opponents in that span.

Clemson's 7-5 record hold out the chance for a minor bowl game. Coach Agentcom's impressive 6-2 record should see him returning to the helm next year, unless he is snapped up by another program. Agentcom has loose ties to Clemson, at best, and many have surmised that the sometimes-inspired coach may have ambitions with a team outside the ACC.

I'll get the standings updated later this evening. Week 14 games will go out this afternoon - including conference championship games where division champs have been decided, then I'll send out the rest as the divisions are decided.

Conference championship games will have the higher-ranked teams settings for spoils and fog, and the lower-ranked team's settings for reinforcements.

this is to inform you that i won game # 10259197 against plash ricrem. it happened the other day and in researching the postings, i failed to see my note to you of the result.
we're still contesting the other games.

The Border War has never held so much significance as #9 Wyoming visits #6 Colorado State this week for the season finale to determine who takes home the Bronze Boot!

Colorado State needs the win to claim its first outright MWC title since 2002, while Wyoming likely needs the win to keep its bid alive for a coveted at-large spot in the looming FBS playoffs.

Go Pokes!

19. Boise State Broncos, MWC, 5-6, 0.558 go flex go winning could help the rest of the division out please


Wyoming gets three starts so this one is gonna be a barn burner

I expect a low scoring three point game

i managed a win in game # 10259201 against plash ricrem (conn. vs. rutgers).

Florida State wins the ACC championship with a 26-23 win over UNC.

An earlier USC game finally came to an end in a USC loss, giving the Trojans three losses and handing Arizona State the PAC-12 South. ASU heads to the PAC-12 championship game against Stanford.

That leaves the MAC as the last conference championship game to get started, and it looks like Buffalo is going to pull off the Week 13 win to advance to the conference title game against Ball State.

stinking huskies kept the Cougars out of the Rose Bowl

aarrgh matey!! next year!

utep and #1MSU need a overtime game close game

#13 Buffalo (10-2, 5-1 MAC) finished its Week-13 win over Bowling Green to clinch the MAC East Division, and will face #4 Ball State (11-1, 6-1 MAC) in the MAC championship game. The two met in Week 3, with Ball State winning 26-24 for Buffalo's only league loss.

Unranked Mississippi State defeats #22 South Carolina 38-27 in the SEC championship. At 7-6, MSU barely clears the qualification to the playoff bracket. Good luck to kierkegaard_2.
