With a 3 way tie between us, bama, and auburn... what gives us the advantage over them? Is it combined record against each other (we're 4-2 against those two...).<div>

With 1 game left in the season, the current #6 and #7 seeds have both clenched spots in the tourney, but the #2 seed still has work to do. I don't think I've seen a scenario like that before.

</div>

exactly we are 4-2, Bama is 3-3, and Auburn is 2-4. That is first tiebreaker in 3 team or more tie.

nm.

I THINK that clinches the West for us.

For MSU to make the SEC Tournament ...
MSU loss + 1 UM win OR AUB loss
OR
MSU loss + AUB loss and ALA loss

Don't these two contradict each other or am I being thickheaded.

 

[615dawg]

The scenario where Alabama and Auburn lose would give us a better seed.

 

[missouridawg]

Hopefully my math is right here...<div>
</div><div>To win West:</div><div>1) MSU win - Bama loss and OM to win 1 of 2 (Auburn's outcome doesn't matter b/c we own the tiebreaker)</div><div>2) MSU win - Auburn win and OM to win 1 of 2 (if Auburn wins, Bama's outcome is negated because we own the 3 way tiebreaker)</div><div>
</div><div>Right?</div>

tourney? If so, that kind of sucks for the east. Let's face it, there is USC, Vandy, UF and then a big drop to everyone else. The top of the east is sick this year and includes the national champs.

 

[MonkeyCheese]

I've not seen an official word of that.

 

[MonkeyCheese]

Then everyone else falls into place behind based on records and tiebreakers.

The scenario where Alabama and Auburn lose would give us a better seed.

Any team in this tournament can potentially win the thing. I think it will be how the cards play out once next weekend gets here, because any team that will make it has the potential to beat anyone else.

UF lost and USC and Vandy won. USC holds the tiebreaker.
