Do we cheer for Tech to win tonight and that would mean we would play the winner of the WV-OU game if we win out?
OU would need to lose out, two loss OU still owns the tiebreaker with us.

ISU has the tie breaker over WVU.No, I think that would could be bad. If OU, ISU, and WVU all end with 2 losses (meaning OU ends up beating WVU after losing tonight), it might get hairy on the deeper tiebreakers with our loss to TCU. But our win over TTU might put us in over OU at that point?
ISU has the tie breaker over WVU.
Ohh I see what you’re saying, because they all beat each other...Not if it's a three-way tie, doesn't work like that.
Our record would be 1-1, and so would theirs. So it'd go to record over teams lower in standing, pretty sure.
Where is the Big 12 Championship game?
OU has the tie-breaker over us so they can lose one game and still go to the championship game if they win out (including West Virginia.) If you think West Virginia is going to win out, then root for TT. There are enough different scenarios still that I'll probably root for Tech as the underdog, but be happy that it's marginally better for ISU for OU to win.Tech wins tonight and we control our own destiny. OU wins and there is one scenario left where we don't make the title game if we win out (WV wins out and OU doesn't lose until the WV game).
In that scenario, wv would be 0-2 in the round robin and eliminated. Cheer for tech tonight.Not if it's a three-way tie, doesn't work like that.

Texas we can take care of ourselves. West Virginia is who we need to see lose (or OU twice.)In general, we need to root against WV and Texas from here on out?
So moral of the story is that we do not want a 3-way tie that includes OU, the best way to avoid that is if they win out and take the #1 spot outright, right?Not if it's a three-way tie, doesn't work like that.

I repeat, if Tech wins tonight we control our own destiny. In the last game between OU and WV, either WV wins and we get in over OU with one less conference loss or if OU wins we get in over WV because they are 0-2 in the three way tie.OU has the tie-breaker over us so they can lose one game and still go to the championship game if they win out (including West Virginia.)
