Official Game Thread: Oklahoma State vs. Central Florida

Is this a certainty if we win those games? Because other people keep saying if OU wins out, they will be there.

No, we beat OU and this ties us with them. We’re in, based on head to head if we win out and Iowa State loses which they will lose to Texas if not more.
 
I blame TheMonkey for all of this. 😉

A problem arises if there is a 3 way tie with KSU. In that scenario the tie breaker is the record against the highest rated common opponent. It could happen that KSU or OU gets in ahead of us even though we hold the head to head tiebreaker between both.

I think you might be right. Would be pretty crappy to lose the tie breaker against KSU and OU because OU didn't play KSU this year. We would lose a 3 way tie breaker against two teams that we beat.

In the event of a tie between more than two teams, the following procedures will be used. After one team has an advantage and is “seeded”, all remaining teams in the multiple-team tiebreaker will repeat the multiple-team tie-breaking procedure. If at any point the multiple-team tie is reduced to two teams, the two-team tie-breaking procedure will be applied.

1. Head-to-head (best cumulative win percentage in games among the tied teams). If not, every tied team has played each other, go to step 2.

2. Record against the next highest placed common opponent in the standings (based on record in all games played within the conference), proceeding through the standings.

  1. When arriving at another group of tied teams while comparing records, use each team’s win percentage against the collective tied teams as a group (prior to that group’s own tie-breaking procedure) rather than the performance against individual tied teams.
 
The clearest and most obvious patch to the CCG for us is for Texas to win out and eliminate ISU and KSU from the 2 conference loss teams. Then we have the head-to-head against ou.

As hard as it will be for me, I’m a UT fan tonight and the next two weeks.

Then we demolish them to win the Big 12.
 
we will obviously only have ourselves to blame if we don't get in...weird azz year...imagine getting beat twice by avg teams by a combined score of 78-10 but also beating a pretty damn good uo team and having a chance to win Big 12...smh...

When all said and done that tiebreaker team considered will most likely be Kansas.
 
Well that was TOTALLY AWFUL!!! I have been traveling most of the day to attend a funeral on Monday and listened to it on the XM radio app in the car! It sounded horrible on radio and I can just imagine how hard it was to watch on TV! I admit I was totally wrong about this game but still don’t understand how they lost to Baylor on their home turf and got pretty much thrashed by West Virginia 42 - 28 in Orlando as well!!! I don’t know which is worse the whipping we got from South Alabama or this tail kicking!!! 😒

Texas already beat KSU. I think we need to root for Texas to win out and a scenario where there is only a two team tie for second. Us and OU or KSU
 
Unsure. Bean got knocked out today so if he can't go it's going to be rough on Kansas.

They will lose to KSU beat Cinci. ISU most likely gets their last win tonight. They will both be 5-4 with KSU getting the breaker. You go in a three way with KSU and OU with KU being the breaker, than OU is out.

As pissed as I want to be about today, I kind off saw it coming. Consolation prize is that it pretty much eliminates the chance of Playing OU again.... cause there was a real chance that people were not considering.
 
Part of the problem is that gundy only cares about doing enough to get us close and keep
coming back for more. He won’t win a big 12 championship most likely and hope he proves me wrong. Most likely won’t win a playoff or ever get to one.

I agree that we want UT to win out. If it’s a three way tie with OSU, ou, and KSU, the fact that we beat them both doesn’t factor in because KSU didn’t play ou. We need OU or KSU to lose one for guaranteed advancement into CCG.

Agree, the safest route is for there to only be a two team tie. A three way puts at risk, although we could still make it if Kansas is the highest seeded common opponent.
