If us and A&M sweep

[ronpolk]

Do we share the title? I guess this also assumes Florida loses at least one.

 

[The Maroon Pug]

A&M wouldn't get the tiebreaker?

 

[TBone.sixpack]

I don't think there is a tie breaker in reg season. So yeah I think we would share it. Fine by me.

 

[tatedog]

Yes we would share the west and possibly overall title with them. They would be seeded higher in Hoover by virtue of head to head tiebreaker, but our trophy will look just like their trophy. Think 2003 SEC west football, Ole Miss and LSU both got trophies, but LSU got seeded higher in Atlanta.**

What I want to know is if we sweep and UF goes 2-0 this weekend (no third game), do we share the title with them?

 

[tatedog]

There is no way we win the SEC overall unless UF loses at least 1 game this weekend.

 

[Shamoan]

Doesn't it go to win% ?

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Can a whole series get rained out under SEC rules? Or 2 games rained out?

 

[TBone.sixpack]

That was my understanding.

 

[tatedog]

It sure can and has. Best case scenario in BR looks like a game late tomorrow night and a DH on Saturday. By rule they can't play on Sunday.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Well, if the weather report is right, they'll at least get in a double header on Saturday.

 

[tatedog]

We want as many games to get played as possible b/c we need UF to have as many chances to lose as possible. I'm afraid that the 2 on Saturday might be it though.

If UF goes 2-0, they'd be 20-8 (.714). Best we could do would be 21-9 (.700). We'd be 0 games back, but they would win the title outright.

If they don't play any and we sweep, we win the SEC over them. Otherwise, yeah they have to lose one.

 

[tatedog]

That is correct. I totally overlooked the outcome of no games being played in BR, but we would have the win% on them in that scenario.

eta: Somebody should start looking into tie possibilities if the late game on Saturday runs into curfew issues (kidding--sort of).

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

We may be on our own! I've got $5 on the sweep.

Bear friend says they had rather chew off a leg than hep us win the West.

That was after the nights proceeding.

We don't need no stinkin' hep.

Not me... I thought we were ahead of Florida with tonight's no-game... we need a non-dumbass to lay it all out.

 

[tatedog]

They would rather see their own team lose than see us win a championship, truly sad. They will be even sadder when they get to see both.

See I think our trophy would have one giant maxi pad stripe down it, while aTm's would have two stripes.

 

[coach66]

I think this is the most likely scenario, bears can't handle Tamu and Hogs are

Hot garbage. Florida not good enough to sweep Lsu at home.

it is obvious to me that Ole Miss has benefitted from a favorable conference schedule. They are definitely a good team but not a national seed.

Good post. 10/10 would read again.

 

[tatedog]

That was a good laugh.

 

[Shamoan]

See 2011. 3 way tie for sec reg season champ between Florida, Vandy, and USC who all had 22-8 records. We basically just need Florida to lose one and to complete the sweep

Okay. Basically, we need to play and win all three games to finish 21-9 (.700) .. and we need Florida to either 1) not play ANY games this weekend (18-8, .692) or 2) lose at least ONE game to LSU ( xx-9, <.700) .. to at LEAST tie for the West AND at LEAST tie for the SEC regular season champ.
