UConn Game 3

[JoeB]

I think USF, UCF, and UH are in the tourney at this point.  UConn could work its way in too, but they have some work to do.  Tulane will have to win the tourney at this point.

Am I wrong in thinking that UConn is just as much in play as Houston pertaining to us? We only win 2 and UConn sweeps ECU, they're above us in the standings ....

 

Yeah thats possible too.  Not sure who has the tiebreaker if USF, UConn, and UH finish 15-9

Per Wiki, here's the tiebreakers:

Multiple‐Team Tie

1. Teams are viewed as a "mini‐conference" when comparing head‐to‐head results. The team or teams with the best combined record versus the other teams in the mini‐conference gains the advantage. (All at 3-3)

2. Each team’s combined winning percentage versus the teams ranked higher in the standings. (If we're all tied for 1st place, have to assume this couldn't be used)

3. Each team’s winning percentage against a common opponent that is occupying the highest position in the standings, and continuing down through the standings until one team gains an advantage. (NOTE: When arriving at another pair of tied teams while comparing records, use each team's record against the tied teams as a group rather than the performance against the individual tied teams.) (Have to assume this would go to us with a 5-1 record against the Kanigits?)

4. Each team’s Overall 24‐game run differential (maximum of three runs per game).

5. Each team’s Overall 24‐game run total (maximum of three runs per game).

6. Each team’s Overall 24‐game runs against (maximum of three runs per game).

4 thru 6 are odd. Still have a strange feeling about this next series.
