No not really, a couple games tomorrow and then scenarios will be set, but still have to play the games out Saturday obviously.

Florida 14-3 24-5
Kentucky 11-5 20-9
Missouri 11-6 22-8
Ole Miss 11-6 22-8
Alabama 11-6 19-11
Tennessee 10-7 18-11
LSU 9-8 18-10
Arkansas 9-8 18-12
Georgia 8-8 14-15
Texas A&M 7-10 17-13
Vanderbilt 7-10 13-16
South Carolina 4-13 14-16
Auburn 3-14 9-21
Mississippi State 3-14 8-21

After Wednesday UT is #6
I think UT is # 6 and should get a 1st round bye. We will probably face S.C. or Miss St. if the season ended now. We would probably get KY in the 3rd round. OH BOY!

What will be really interesting is if KY loses their last 2. In that case, their would likely be a 5 way tie of KY AL TN MO and Ole Miss. The seeding in that scenario is a bit hairy as all teams have not played a proportionate amount of games against each other

Doesn't have to be proportionate, it's winning %. So 2-1 is > than say 2-2

Here's what i've got...

If Bama, Ole Miss and UK were to lose (and UT win of course)...you would have a five way tie. UK would get the 2 seed at 3-1, Ole Miss the 3 at 4-2, UT the 4 at 3-4, Mizzou the 5 at 2-3 and Bama the 6 at 2-3 (lost head to head with Mizzou).

If UK and Ole Miss were to lose and Bama win, you would have Bama 2, UK 3 at 3-1, Ole Miss 4 at 3-2, UT 5 at 2-3, and Mizzou 6 at 1-3.

If UK and Bama were to lose and Ole Miss win, you would have Ole Miss 2, UT 3 at 3-2, Bama 4 at 2-2 (win against UK), UK 5 at 2-2, Mizz 6 at 1-2.

If UK were to lose and Bama and Ole Miss win, you would have Ole Miss 2, Bama 3, and then UK and UT tied for 4th at 2-1 and Mizzou 6th at 1-2. Edit: Per Hubbs, next tiebreak goes to record against top seed Florida. UT gets the 4, UK the 5.

I think those are the most likely scenarios. I am not speculating on what happens if UK wins...because that shouldn't happen. Also not specualting on a UT loss...that can't happen.

For the bottom portion of the bracket, Auburn plays Miss St Saturday and S Carolina plays Vandy. If South Carolina wins they get the 12 and the winner of Auburn Miss St gets the 13 with the loser getting the 14. If South Carolina were to lose and Miss St wins you get the same set up, S Car 12, Miss St 13 and Auburn 14. If South Carolina loses and Auburn were to win you would get Auburn 12, S Car 13 and Miss St 14.

Moving up the bracket, if Vandy were to beat S Car, Vandy is 10 and A & M is 11. If Vandy and A & M lose, you get the same. If Vandy loses and A & M wins, A & M is 10 and Vandy is 11.

Finally, you have LSU, Ark, and UGA all tied for 7th-9th. Obviously, this could go a variety of ways. If they all win or lose, edit:tiebreaker is record against Florida...Arkansas has the edge here, UGA would be 8 and LSU 9. If only two of these teams won, tiebreakers are: LSU has a win against Ark and a loss against UGA. Ark beat UGA but lost to LSU. UGA beat LSU and lost to Ark. So if LSU and Ark won, LSU would be 7, Ark 8 and UGA 9. If LSU and UGA won, UGA 7, LSU, 8 and Ark 9. If Ark and UGA won, it would be Ark 7, UGA 8, LSU 9.

My predictions (not that it matters)...UK loses at home to Florida, Ole Miss loses on the road to LSU, Vandy beats S Car at home, Ark beats A & M at home, Bama beats UGA at home, Tenn beats Mizz at home (obviously), and who knows who wins the stinker bowl...I guess I will take Miss St over Auburn since they are at home...

That would give 12 S Car vs 13 Miss St and 11 A & M vs 14 Auburn on Wed
Thursday would be 9 UGA vs 8 Ark, winner of 12/13 vs 5 UT, 10 Vandy vs 7 LSU, winner of 11/14 vs 6 Mizzou
Fri would be 1 Florida vs winner of UGA/Ark, 4 Ole Miss vs 5 UT (presumably), 2 Bama vs Vandy/LSU winner, and 3 UK vs Mizzou (presumably)
Sat semis
Sun Championship

That isn't the road I dreamed of. I would like to avoid Florida, Mizz, and Ole Miss as long as possible. If the scenario played out where we got the 3 seed (UK and Bama lose, Ole Miss wins) our first game would be against Mizzou. I don't like that idea.
If UK and Ole Miss lose and Bama wins, UT gets the 4 and first game would be against Mizzou as well. Same as if all 3 were to lose.
The best road I see is where Bama and Ole Miss wins and UK loses which is entirely plausible. First game against UK. Hard to believe I would rather face UK than Ole Miss or Mizzou but that's the way I see it.

Any scenarios I am missing or wrong about, let me know. Hopefully people like to see this type of stuff as much as I do...

Looks good. Here's what I come up with.
Modeled afters Hubbs' article:

If Tennessee beats Missouri, Alabama loses to Georgia, Kentucky loses to Florida, and Ole Miss beats LSU...
*(records amongst tied group head-to-head in parenthesis)

1. Florida
2. Ole Miss
3. Tennessee (3-2)
4. Kentucky (2-2)
5. Alabama (2-2)
6. Missouri (1-2)
Kentucky/Alabama tie breaker: Both teams lost to Florida once; defer to record vs. Ole Miss - Kentucky beat Ole Miss once, Alabama lost in their only meeting


If Tennessee beats Missouri, Alabama beats Georgia, Ole Miss loses to LSU, and Kentucky loses to Florida
1. Florida
2. Alabama
3. Kentucky (3-1)
4. Ole Miss (3-2)
5. Tennessee (2-3)
6.Missouri (1-3)

If Tennessee beats Missouri, Alabama loses at Georgia, Ole Miss loses to LSU and Kentucky beats Florida
1. Florida
2. Kentucky
3. Ole Miss (4-1)
4. Missouri (2-2)
5. Tennessee (2-3)
6. Alabama (1-3)

If Tennessee beats Missouri, Alabama loses to Georgia, Ole Miss loses to LSU and Kentucky loses to Florida
1. Florida
2. Ole Miss (4-2)
3. Kentucky (3-2)
4. Tennessee (3-4)
5. Missouri (2-3)
6. Alabama (2-3)
Missouri split the series with Florida 1-1, Alabama lost the only meeting. Tie break goes to Missouri.


If Tennessee beat Missouri, Alabama loses to Georgia, Kentucky beats Florida and Ole Miss beats LSU
1. Florida
2. Kentucky
3. Ole Miss
4. Tennessee (2-1)
5. Missouri (1-1)
6. Alabama (1-2)

If Tennessee beats Missouri, Kentucky loses to Florida, Alabama beats Georgia and Ole Miss beats LSU
1. Florida
2. Ole Miss
3. Alabama
4. Tennessee (2-1)
5. Kentucky (2-1)
6. Missour (0-2)
Tennessee beat Florida so they get the 4 seed.

Yea, I saw yours right after I posted mine. I will have to admit, I had to go back and edit and use yours to figure out that last scenario with UT and UK. Forgot that was the next tiebreaker.

I understand. With 14 teams, the new tournament set up and the tie breakers everything's all jacked up. Not sure if I like it or not, time will tell.

Going to 16 from 14 even dumber than 14 from 12 imo...going to 14 will mean less money per team and fact is if you are playing teams in the other division a couple of times a decade are you even in the same conference? It gets ridiculous. People say, "they'll do it for the money", but how does that make sense? We make less than the big 12, big 10, and acc per team and yet we have the greatest property, sec football...just dumb if you ask me

UT plays the winner Carolina/Miss State first game.
Then moves on to play Ole Miss the winner mostly likely plays Florida in the Semi's.

Finals get the winner of Kentucky/Alabama most likely.
