SCENARIO TRIVIA: TX & Sugar

ELTEXAN said:
Ummmn what. No.

wait. Are you saying OU to the cfp and Texas to sugar?

that's still not Texas controlling it’s destiny. That’s hoping for a committee’s decision.

Not No, Yes.

That’s exactly what I’m saying giving how the year has gone.

Did I say it was Texas controlling its own destiny? I merely stated Texas still likely gets chosen over Junior if that scenario plays out.

No need to get hot headed over your stupid thread.

The Sugar bowl will argue that Texas holds the head to head win and should be considered second as the justification to take them over OkJr

Yeah, Junior basically would need Texas to lose once more if not twice to have a chance of going to the Sugar if that scenario played out. It’s annoying but true.

Close. The third B12 tie breaker isn’t “overall record”. It’s score differential.

If TX OU OKST all have 1 loss in conference.
And their only losses are to each other,
And Texas comes out third amongst those teams in score differential,
Then OU OKST go to the CCG
And Texas will have won out and also lost control of going to and winning the Sugar.

Now, we await the dunce twins to come on here and say something to try to diminish their intellectual laziness and weakness.

Score differential for just conference games? Or is it all games? It's going to be tough for Texas with a 20 point loss to Arkansas. I honestly don't know the rule just asking.

I’m these situations it’s typically conference games only unless you are getting to like the 7th or 8th tie break

I think it’s score diff. between the three tied teams.

1 Record amongst tied teams.
2 Record against rest of conference starting with next top ranked team.
3 score differential between tied teams.
4 draw lots.
I’m pretty sure that’s the b12 procedure.

No. But that’s what this whole thread is about.

Neat, I was responding to your own answer to the question you posed. Texas still goes over Junior in that scenario. Do you disagree?

I think it’s 70-30 Texas goes.
we’d have the h2h over OKST.
we’d both have two losses.
their loss would be immediately prior to the vote.
And We’re a blue blood and they ain’t.
The case for OKST is that they did get to the CCG, even if it’s just a tie breaker.
And how many of the committee members are pissed at Texas for jumping to the SEC.
 
Prolly a moot point. B12 refs are gonna fuck Texas harder than the 2015 OKST game (if that’s possible) for jumping to the SEC.

It think it’d be more then 70-30 for UT but that’s fine.

Texas being a blue blood is a huge factor in it along with them having the head to head and 1 less loss is my reasons for it being more Then 70% IMO.

They wouldn’t have one less loss. They’d have one less conference loss. I don’t know why the Sugar would care about that. It’s the Sugar/CFP that picks, not the B12, I’m fairly sure.
Oh. I forgot one for OKST: they’d have one more win.

And they should enjoy it, because there won't be 6+ soft teams in their new conference to pad their record.

Hell, it isn't like their conference records the past 10 years in the "old" conference have been very swift. Texas wasn't allowed membership in the SEC due to their recent football prowess. Kind of like your aggies when they entered the conference. Their Big 12 record the previous years wasn't really that swift either. Same for Rutgers/Maryland to the B1G.

2020 - 5-3 (Kansas game canceled)
2019 - 5-4
2018 - 7-3 (CCG appearance)
2017 - 5-4
2016 - 3-6
2015 - 4-5
2014 - 5-4
2013 - 7-2
2012 - 5-4
2011 - 4-5

50-40 over the last decade.

I'm guessing they'll finish about .500 in SEC play just like they have in Big 12 play. Some years better than .500 and some worse.

We’d get to play that soft overranked middle of the sec and pad some Ws.

It is. Take a look at what happened in 2010 in the Big10. The Sugar Bowl went out of there way to take the blue blood and fought for Ohio State to be allowed to have players who should have been ineligible play.

If this situation plays out, and OU goes to the playoffs, I’m 110% sure the Sugar bowl takes Texas.

Prolly. Like I wrote in these forums immediately after the RRSO loss: “I look forward to beating Kentucky in the Sugar.”
:yes:

Technically, Texas doesn’t control its own destiny to a Sugar Bowl win.

Who here can articulate why and how?

IF all goes according to popular belief:
Because they haven't beat Ok State or Baylol yet. They'll need a win over AT LEAST one of them, and if only one of them are beat by texas they will need the other they didn't beat to have additional losses in conference to get the Sugar invite if OU gets CFP invite...on top of texas needing to win out.

...but its way to early to pontificate what if's at this point of the season. Mental gymnastics for no medals.
