So here is what things look like today. Six teams are still in play.
A few thoughts: If BG wins out, they are in the title game. Both WMU and Miami would have two losses and OU would be in if they won out.
UT and UB need three of the one-loss teams to lose to get into a tiebreaker. That could easily happen.
First, they need to win out. UB has the easier route...UT hosts OU in what will be a touch game.
It wouldn't surprise me if all four of the one loss teams dropped a game coming home. Miami could lose to NIU. WMU could lose to BG. BG could lose to Miami. OU could lose to UT. Talk above havoc. A six-way tie with two spots to fill. (By the way, I think--could be wrong--BG wins this tiebreaker under that scenario--and UT and WMU battle for the other spot.
I like the position we are in. We are playing meaningful games in November and are matched with two of the three teams we are tied with and both at home. Long way to go. This is a hard race to win. But I think we have a shot.
Let's get it done. Run the damn ball.
