If Auburn beats UGA, and we lose....

well, FL would be back in the equation if htey beat SC. If SC beats FL, then we still own the tie breaker against GA.

there's a series of tie breakers, though, and if TN, GA and FL all wound up with the same conf record, division losses and the round robin head to heads finish like they are now..........it goes to final BCS ranking.....and at the current time GA holds the adv. over both, but after losing, that would probaly go to FL........

it's all very conveluded and confusing........LG has it all worked out though.

What a mess!!! Who would have ever thought that you could win the East with three loses.

I think we will see it again this year. I don't have much faith in this team winning three in a row.

If both UGA and UT lose this weekend (and assuming Florida beats USC), then Florida becomes a big fan of UT because, should UGA then go on and beat Kentucky, we need to finish in a three-way tie with UT and UGA with three losses each in order for us to win it.

In other words, in your scenario, if UGA were to go on and beat Kentucky, the Vols could screw over Florida by losing one of its last two SEC games, reason being that Florida and UGA would be tied but UGA would have the tiebreaker advantage.

Ironic, isn't it? You could easily find yourselves in a situaiton where, if you win out at that point, Florida wins the East, but if you lose one more, UGA does. You would not control your own fate. But you would control ours (and UGAs).

Yep . . . UGA went by virtue of BCS standings over us and Florida.


Highly unlikely we get to that point because, in order for that to play out, we need to a) end in a tie; and b) Florida, UT, and UGA must have an equal amount of divisional losses.

Right now, UF only has one divisional loss whereas UGA and UT have two. But, UF has three SEC losses, and UGA and UT each have two. So, the only way that we end in a three way tie where UF has three divisional losses is if UF loses to USC, UGA loses to both Auburn and Kentucky, and you guys lose to Arky and to either (but just one) Kentucky or Vandy.

when/where/if at all, does division w/l come in to play?

if all three finish with identical SEC w/l records, and assuming TN loses to ARK, FL wins out, and GA loses to Auburn the scenario shoudl be as follows:

FL-3 losses in conf, 2 SEC W, 1 SEC E
GA-3 losses in conf, 2 SEC E, 1 SEC W
TN-3 losses in conf, 2 SEC W, 1 SEC E

GA should be out by virtue of the division record, then it would be down to FL and TN, and FL owns the head to head, FL goes to ATL.

i think, not positive, that the division record would come in to play prior to going to the BCS rankings, no?

conversely, had GA lost to Bama, and beat SC, then all three would have the same division record, and it would then go to BCS Rankings........:dunno:

and you're correct, if we lose 2 of the three, GA loses once, and you win out, GA still goes cause of the head to head match up....

for anyone thinking this is a done deal......it ain't, by a long shot......

This was covered earlier in the week and I think it would go to UF.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think if you go into a 3 way tie it goes to a head to head tie breaker and since UF has only lost one Eastern Game out of the 3 they've lost then they would go to the Championship.

Since we have one loss in the East as well and that one loss is to the Gators, then it definately would go to UF.

If its a three way tie it goes to the turds. Lets pray us or georgia keeps the turds from getting there.

I remember making fun of my friends who cheered for SEC West teams because they could go play Florida with 3 losses while we had only 1, but oh how the tables have turned. Go Vols
