Ticketmaster has more options, still criminally expensive on CU’s side. Trying to rationalize spending extra money for a six year old to go to the concessions every 20 minutes.

Big 12 Championship Tie Breaker
- Thread starter AeroBuff99
- Start date
I had zero expectations of a CFP berth for the Buffs before the season and I still have those expectations. Just enjoy the ride the Buffs are on right now.
Just because I'm enjoying pissing in Wheaties right now, here are teams ahead of us in the playoff picture right now:
Big Ten: Oregon, Pedo State, OSU, Indiana, maybe Illinois
SEC: Georgia, Texas A&M, Texas, Tennessee, maybe Alabama
ACC: Miami, Clemson, PItt, SMU
Big 12: BYU, ISU
G5: Army, Boise State
It's the longest shot ever that we would get in.
Believe me, I would **** my pants we could host a playoff game. But it's not going to happen this year. All in good time.
What is in the grasp of reality is 10 wins and putting Travis in Heisman contention.

For ratings, would you rather have BYU, ISU, or CU in the cfp? Asking for a friend.
IT'S CAMAROHEAD!!! WTF, MAN.
Is your friend ESPN…because they’ve NEVER been known to try to put their thumb on the scale with selections or conferences right?

What happens tie breaker wise if Utah beats BYU this weekend? Is CU still on the outside of the conf championship looking in?
Just because we went back and forth last week on what you viewed as not happening, just bringing this up and saying it didn't age well
If BYU loses, but ISU and CU win (and then all three win out), it's a three way tie for #1, but ISU would have the tiebreaker over both, and BYU would have the tie breaker over CU.
- I don't think all three teams are winning out
- These tie breakers are very much contingent on the outcomes of other games in conference and there are a lot of difference scenarios that change the standings
- It's really hard to make any definitive predictions with 4 games left
Here is a calculator that allows you change the outcomes of each remaining game and calculate the standings.

Now that ISU has a loss, does BYU losing buy the Buffs anything? Or do we want a depleted/defeated Utah team that CU actually has to play?
Well, if BYU lost to Utah but we beat them, we would have beat the team that they lost to and they would have beat the team that they lost to, so then it would go to who would finish higher in the standings between Utah and K State - I think? But that's only the tiebreaker between the two of us - I don't even know what would happen if BYU, ISU, and we all ended up with one loss.
I think what's best for us now that ISU has lost is for BYU to go undefeated. Then, if we win out, but finish third, we want BYU to win the CCG and hopefully we are in position to get an at large bid. Obviously if we get in to the CCG, it's win or go home, but I still think we want BYU to be undefeated because then us winning and getting the auto bid puts another conference's team out, probably not 12-1 BYU.

This calculator says that if Utah beats BYU this week and then everything between CU, BYU and ISU go chalk the rest of the way the standings are
1. ISU
2. BYU
3. CU - Below BYU due to record against the 4th highest team in the standings, in this case KSU, and BYU beat them while we lost.
It really does look like CU still needs ISU to lose once or BYU to lose twice.

Best Path: CU wins out and watches ISU lose to BYU in the CCG
Easy double bid for B12
I tend to agree that's a likely scenario but I'd rather play in the Big 12 CG, beat BYU's ass and get a top 4 seed. Not have to sweat selection Sunday

Think Positive and life will be Positive.
No
Best path is ISU losing to KSU and we whoop BYU in the championship for the autobid.
I truly don’t give a **** about anyone else.
But maybe that’s because I’m a selfish libert…..
I've watched ISU a few times and I think they're not a good as their record. Problem is, they don't really have to play anyone between now and KSU.
At Kansas, Cincinnati at home, at Utah.
They should win all three games, even if they're overrated. Really it's going to come down to Farmageddon. My best bet is that KSU is going to win that game, but the problem is that it's at Ames.

See, I think they lose 2 of their remaining 4 games. KU and Cincy aren’t pushovers.
This is a hard game for them, and also for us.
I hope that since they'll be eliminated from bowl eligibility by the time we play them (2-6 with ISU & BYU the next 2 weeks), they'll be flat. I had worried about maybe dealing with a final home game, senior day motivated opponent, but I think them playing away from campus due to stadium construction will squash that.

New stoner rock band name!
Let’s just wait until we seal things up before we do any such thing!
As of rn there are no tie breakers needed.
I don’t want any mojo diminshment!
Believe
So how do we feel now? I’m really having a hard time forcing my myself to root for BYU tonight.
Kinda don't want Utah to get much traction after that tough game for us. I don't want to root for either, but I don't like the Yoots playing this well.

They’re just gearing up for their Super Bowl next week. Same as TT did.
