    Not that it matters, but who will be the 4th seed, OU or the good guys?

    OU is the 4 seed due to tiebreaker (win against KU)

    Unless Baylor finishes off Kansas, which they are working on doing.

    Then OU is still the 4 seed due to tiebreaker, but my calculations it comes down to us getting beat by Texas Tech and Oklahoma beating them both times.

    Re: With the TCU win.....

    Wouldn't the tiebreaker then move to K-State and we beat them but they swept OU?

    No, the tiebreaker uses combined records against tied teams if it comes to that. Since K-State and Kansas would be tied for #1, and both OU and ISU are 1-3 against those teams, the tiebreaker would continue down through OSU, Baylor, Texas, WVU, and then TTU. We have the same record as OU against all of those teams until you get to TTU.

    On ESPN they just showed us as #4. They might be wrong, but obviously it doesn't matter either way.

    Re: With the TCU win.....

    KSU+KU= 1 win total
    OSU= split
    ISU
    OU
    BU= sweep
    WVU=Sweep
    Tech=Sweep for OU, split for ISU.

    OU gets the 4.

    Re: With the TCU win.....

    They played one less game than ISU... does that trump the other games?

    Re: With the TCU win.....

    I think OU gets the 5th seed due to one less game on the record books. BUT who cares...I'm glad we are playing them, they had to have left a bad taste in ISU's mouth down in Norman. Won't take much for Fred to get them riled up and ready to go.
    I WOULD RATHER DIE IN AMES THAN LIVE IN LUBBOCK.

    Yes, I believe this is correct. We get the 4th seed, not that it matters much.

    Wait, what? Why would games played be a tiebreaker? These are the tiebreakers: Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship Seeding and Tiebreaker Procedures - Big 12 Conference - Official Athletic Site

    You'd think at some point, being an awful troll would just get old.
