Arkansas—the ultimate trap game

Great point, this is a heavy possibility

I actually think they’re more likely to lose the Egg Bowl to Jeff Lebby. It’s on the road and Kiffin might have a new job by then and be so distracted by that he doesn’t have his team ready for that game.

Just need Lane & Co to slip-up against Florida again

It ABSOLUTELY does….dont be a dick

Flex Time 2:30-3:30 or 5-7

What's the point of a review if they don't get the call correct? At this point, it's a waste of time and resources. The officiating has been horrifically bad this season, and I guess it was just our turn.

That must have been a SWC official with Baylor roots.

Ah gotcha I wasn’t taking the round robin rule into account. Let my Ole Miss hate watch commence lol

In the event of a 4-way tie between Alabama, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, and Texas at 7-1... Alabama losing to Oklahoma would propel us to 1st place. If Alabama loses to LSU or Auburn as their 1 loss, we actually sit all the way down in 4th.

This webpage has the extended version of tie breaking rules: https://www.secsports.com/fbtiebreaker Scroll down to the Three-Team Tie breaking scenarios. Unless the tied teams have all played a complete or incomplete round robin amongst each other, the procedure moves to record versus common conference opponents. For a three-way tie between Ole Miss, Texas A&M, and Texas with 7-1 records, those common opponents are Mississippi State, Arkansas, and Florida.

A week from tomorrow I think

For those that track these kinds of things… when will we know the kickoff time and what are the chances it ends up a night game? I know it’s a flex game, but hoping for an evening kickoff

Maybe I’m interpreting this wrong, but based on condition B we’d be tied with Ole Miss (1-1 record vs Georgia and Florida) Condition C would kick in and give us the advantage for beating the higher ranked common opponent (Georgia). Condition A, which is prioritized, would give us the nod over A&M? This screenshot is from 2024 so not sure if they changed the rules.

If Ole Miss, A&M, and Texas all have 1 loss, then it becomes a 3-way tie and the tiebreaker is common conference opponents, of which we'd lose to both due to our loss to Florida, even if we beat A&M.

Head to head only matters if it's between just two teams that played each other during the season. If Mississippi, Texas, and A&M all finish 7-1, Mississippi would win that tiebreaker

If we win out that means we’d have the tiebreaker over A&M with head to head

Depends on A&M as well. If A&M also only has one loss, then it is a three way tie. In that case, Florida is a common opponent and Georgia is not, which makes us be eliminated.

This tool is 100% accurate from what I can tell

According to SEC Mike, Texas would need to win out and have Ole Miss drop a game. I actually prefer the route of Texas winning out and missing the SEC championship. Likely results in hosting a playoff game and gives the team a week to rest instead of playing in the SEC championship and sustaining injuries.

Assuming both teams win out I think we’d have the tiebreaker over Ole Miss. Common opponent would be Georgia who is ranked higher than Florida. Alabama would have 0 conference losses so they’d get in outright.

I know we’re a long way from this scenario with much left to prove. If Texas was to win out, what would the scenario be to get us into the championship game assuming Alabama and Ole Miss win out, which is very possible since they have a fairly easy rest of the year.

Good teams win, great teams cover. They’re a good team, but will be interesting when they come to Austin at night especially if they’re undefeated. We just have to contain their receivers which isn’t an easy thing to do, but we can get after Reed and that’ll make it tough for them. Let’s go get one in Athens first then worry about pigs and farmers.
