1.Big 10 Winner
2. Georgia if win or Big10 loser if Alabama wins
3. Alabama if win or Big 10 loser if Georgia wins
4. Ole Miss (boost with Tulane win) if Georgia wins.
5. Oregon or Georgia if loss
6. A&M withBYU and Georgia win.
7. BYU A&M if Alabama wins
8.Tech
9. OU
10. Alabama with loss or OU if win
11. Virginia with win or Tulane if Duke wins
12. Tulane or JMU if Duke beats Virginia.

The last two weeks have proven that byu fans are as delusional as tu fans.

BYU is a 6-6 team in the sec.

Would like to play both in the playoffs. Please

Every other 1 loss team (Ole Miss, Oregon, A&M) would be 11-1 or 12-0 with Tech's schedule.

Tech would probably be at best 10-2 with any of the other team's schedules.

Here are their schedules with the sagarin rankings of their opponents from hardest to lowest

Texas A&M
Notre Dame (2)
Texas (12)
Missouri (19)
LSU (24)
Auburn (26)
South Carolina (29)
Florida (35)
Arkansas (46)
Mississippi State (56)
UTSA (71)
Utah State (86)
Samford (237)


Texas Tech
Utah (15)
BYU (20)
Kansas State (41)
Arizona State (44)
Houston (52)
Kansas (66)
UCF (81)
West Virginia (82)
Oklahoma State (122)
Oregon State (132)
Kent State (177)
Arkansas-Pine Bluff (256)


Ole Miss
Georgia (8)
Oklahoma (13)
LSU (24)
South Carolina (29)
Florida (35)
Arkansas (46)
Kentucky (50)
Tulane (55)
Mississippi State (56)
Washington State (62)
Georgia State (167)
The Citadel (206)

Oregon
Indiana (3)
Penn State (14)
Iowa (16)
USC (17)
Washington (18)
Montana State (47)
Wisconsin (48)
Minnesota (51)
Rutgers (59)
Northwestern (61)
Oklahoma State (122)
Oregon State (132)

Tech's 3rd hardest game (KSU) would

A&M's 8th
Ole Miss's 6th
Oregon's 6th

Not only that, but Ole Miss & Oregon lost to their top opposition.
A&M lost to tu, with ND being our only "tougher" game
Tech lost to 44th (Sagarin) rated ASU.

With other schedules, they'd have played:
A&M's schedule: 7 teams ranked higher than 44
Ole Miss's schedule: 5 teams ranked higher than 44
Oregon: 5 teams ranked higher than 44

I'm not sold on T Tech yet because their conf is not that great. But to be fair, I have not watched them play much this year.

---

Neither has the committee

I wonder if it hurts Tech that BYU is their only win of note this year and they look ridiculous.

If BYU wins, they should be the 4 seed. That would give them three Top 25 wins over Tech, Utah, and Arizona. With their sole loss being an away game at a Top 5 team.

Utah sucks ass. Did they beat anyone? And Arizona is only ranked because the committee is morons. Tech as the highest 1 loss is absolutely moronic. Their only quality win is BYU in a conference of cupcakes. Everything about the big cupcake is based on nobody considering the extreme weakness of the conference. Nobody had a quality OOC win. In fact, the majority didn't even schedule non-con P4 matchups.

Trash league with two paper tiger teams.

Great post! Sums up my opinion perfectly.

You make your own positives by winning; unfortunately, we lost when we shouldn't have.

welp

This game is basically over. Tech will be the 3 seed if GA beats AL.

BYU should no longer be in the top 12. Losing to the same team twice should be an automatic disqualifier even if that is your only 2 losses in a season. Even more so when you get crushed both times.

Only the top 10 get in. BYU was already ranked outside the playoff.

Tech is impressive; I don't remember them having this much defense in all of the years that A&M was in the Big 12

Since they won, it appears the winner of our game plays them ?

Defense was mostly optional in the Big XII for a long time
