Quick note, bowl updates and conference championship picture will be in a separate post. I honestly don't know if I'm going to figure out all the tiebreak scenarios for the conferences tonight but I'm going to give it a shot.

 

Obviously the biggest result of the week was the stunning loss by UZI Suicide to a team using replacement picks but it was not lethal blow to his Bored Bowl chances. Vampiro69 scored a big win and even though he only moved up one spot overall, he actually picked up over 2 ranking points. Right now I'd say everyone in the Top 6 still can get to the Bored Bowl, obviously though some need more help than others.

 

Mecca is once again alone as the top dog in overall record but the UZI Suicide loss actually ended up costing him #1 ranking.

2. Nebraska - Mecca 2.7

3. Arizona - UZI Suicide 3.15

I tried and I was only partially successful in figuring out the conference championship game tiebreaks. I first want to thank the members of the Southeastern Seven for making life easy for me as you title game is already set. I did figure out all Big Eight scenarios but for the other three conferences, I'm personally rooting for the easy scenarios to play out next week. Unfortunately in the Pac-8 there were no easy scenarios beyond that UZI Suicide has clinched a spot.

 

In case you were wondering, the basic steps for tiebreaks are as follows.

 

1. Head-to-Head

2. Overall Record

3. BCS Ranking

 

Big Eight

-If San Diego State beats Indiana next week, title game will be Syracuse vs. San Diego State

-If Indiana beats San Diego State and both Syracuse and Minnesota win, title game will be Syracuse vs. Minnesota.

-If Indiana beats San Diego State and Syracuse wins and Minnesota loses, title game will be Syracuse vs. Indiana

-If Indiana beats San Diego State and Minnesota wins and Syracuse loses, title game will be between the two higher ranked teams between Indiana, Minnesota, and Syracuse.

-If Indiana beats San Diego State and Syracuse and Minnesota both lose, title game will be Syracuse vs. Indiana.

 

Big MAC

-Nebraska has clinched a spot in title game.

-If Ball State wins next week, title game will be Nebraska vs. Ball State

-If Ball States loses….well there’s just too many damn scenarios to cover after that, sorry.

 

Pac-8

-Arizona has clinched a spot in title game.

-Big clusterfuck.

 

Southeastern Seven

-Kentucky and Florida have clinched spots in title game.

 

Western Atlantic

-If N.C. State beats Miami and Virginia beats Boston College, title game will be N.C. State vs. Virginia

-If N.C. State beats Miami and Boston College beats Virginia, title game will be N.C. State vs. Boston College

-If Miami beats N.C. State there will be four-way tie that involving N.C. State, Miami, the UVA/BC loser, and Georgia Tech for the second spot. Too many possible scenarios to cover.

 

 

Now onto the bowl games. Since I can't completely rule out some of you 5-7 and 4-8 teams in the Big MAC and Pac-8 (and Porter controls his own destiny in the Big Eight) possibly ending up in your conference championship I'm not even going to bother with who is "Still Alive" for a bowl game and just focus on those who are eligible. Of course those of you at 6-6 can become bowl eligible with a win next week.

 

Currently there are 17 eligible teams and 11 of those have locked up bowl bids. Again odds are we are going to end up with more than 18 bowl eligible teams so I will probably be adding a 10th bowl game but I'm going to hold off until next week when I'll know for certain if it is needed. Note I won't be adding an 11th bowl game.

 

Locked Up Bids

 

Alabama

Arizona

Ball State

Georgia Tech

Kentucky

Miami of Ohio

Nebraska

N.C. State

Syracuse

Tennessee

Virginia

 

Bowl Eligible

 

Arizona State

Indiana

LSU

Minnesota

Notre Dame

Ohio State

 

Just a reminder, here is the bowl line-up.

Pretty sure Virginia should be 8-4, not 8-3. Not sure if their conference record is right.

 

As for me, I'm glad to still be alive for the Bored Bowl after the bad picks I submitted this week. Thought I would have dropped a couple spots. I guess I'm just going to have to go crazy next week and pick everything right.

So a me win next week and an ND loss would mean I would finish tied for 2nd in the Pac-8 whilst being bowl ineligible? All kinds of awesome.

This season has been a heart-breaker..to go from being the underdog and winning a huge bowl game to not even going to one.

 

 

...fucking Florida not running up the score..hell, fuck "tha ole ball coach" for not even getting a god damned touchdown out of his team...
