Other Games 10/29 - 11/2 Buffs bye week.

I don't know if we control our own destiny yet, but close enough.

Howell says we would still need another ISU loss to get to the title game if we win out. So they have the tiebreaker over us? I'm not buying it!
 
and being on a bye week with this kind of weather in a lot of Big XII country, 2 favored teams lost in the rain......Buffs didn't have to go on the road, to say Kansas or wherever and play a slopfest in the downpour where ball security is a big issue/possible equilizer.

Team is sitting at home on the sofa on a sunny day in Boulder. Just like me.
 
Can anybody summarize scenarios now other than CU winning out? Thanks.
I mean, it was always at least getting to 10-2.

If we get left out of the CCG in a tiebreaker, it just comes down to getting the #10 or #11 spot in the CFP rankings, which historically is not far fetched for P5 teams that finished 10-2.

They've historically dropped most CCG losers a spot or more. Not sure if any updated protocols have been published, but I have to wonder if the dropping of CCG losers behind idle teams persists with playoff spots on the line.

If we both win out, then we would be tied on common opponents, and then it would be best record against the best common opponent, which is KSU now but who knows what it will be at the end of the season.
 
Would we prefer Pitt & SMU to both have 1 loss or for an undefeated Pitt to get SMU out of our way?
 
A Baylor win helps us because tie breakers come down to common opponent win % and what not. It’s a mess, but rooting for everyone we’ve played now is the move
Except for Kansas State. It it comes down to the third tiebreaker of best record against best common opponent we want our one loss to be down in the standings.
