So the winner of Texas / Texas A&M is likely in.

Viscous circle of Tie-Breakers: How does it work if Georgia holds the tie breaker over us, Alabama (and Ole Miss) holds the tie breaker over Georgia, but WE hold the tie breaker over Alabama, but then you might go back to Georgia holding the tie breaker over us???

Now Ole Miss holds the tie breaker over Georgia but lost to LSU and Kentucky. If Ole Miss wins out are they in the Championship game since none of the remaining teams (Alabama and us) hold a tie breaker over them? If they lose to Florida which is entirely possible does that put us in since we hold the tie breaker over Alabama??

No common opponents so they will use record of each contender’s opponents within the conference and Alabama and A&M would get the tiebreaker at this point. We have no shot at getting in. Ole Miss has no shot. Georgia is through with their conference schedule so they won’t get in. It’s down to Alabama, A&M, and Texas.

Opponents' records
Alabama27-26
Texas A&M24-29
Georgia23-28
Texas22-31
Tennessee 21-32
Ole Miss 21-33

Way too early to tell which tie-breaker rules might be important and which not.

If I counted right, there are still EIGHT conference games involving the six teams vying for a spot in Atlanta. Any of those eight games could change which teams are in the tie. And which teams are in the tie makes a HUGE difference in how the tie-breakers play out.

So best for now to just watch these next two weeks play out, And win out, of course.

Go Vols!
