Remaining SBC Games

How does this exactly work? Is it your overall conference record or record vs. division opponents?

Overall conference record. Record in division might be used in a tiebreaker scenario possibly...

According to a poster on the Belt forum, Louisiana could still possibly host the Championship game. I don't see how, but here's his layout.

"There is actually a crazy scenario where Louisiana could still host. This would require 6 upsets according to FPI, including Texas State beating App State and Troy.

Louisiana would host if:

1. They win out.
2. Troy loses out.
3. App State loses to Texas State and Georgia State but beats Troy.
4. Georgia Southern beats Troy but loses to Coastal and Georgia State.
5. Louisiana's computer ranking is higher than Georgia Southern's.

Georgia Southern, Troy, and App State would all be 5-3. Georgia Southern would win the tiebreaker due to their 2-0 record against the other 2.

Louisiana and Georgia Southern would have matching 5-3 conference records and do not play head-to-head, so the host would be the team with the higher computer ranking.

After all that, Louisiana would probably STILL miss out due to having a lower computer ranking than GS, but it's theoretically possible.



No such scenario exists for Arkansas State, by the way. Only ULM and Louisiana can theoretically host."

That Coastal loss keeps rearing its ugly head.

That’s A LOT of upsets....but I’m game!

[CajunDreDog]

ULM will lose @ Arky St
Cajuns Run the table, win West

Ga. Southern beats Troy
App State Beats Troy
Troy is eliminated
Ga.St upsets Ga.Southern
App wins East

See ya in Boone...

I REALLY don’t want to play in Boone. I know you do since it is close, but I do not. Prefer Troy then GA Southern. Closer the game the more LA fans will go!

I don't cry over spilled milk. Just get me there. I don't give a ____ where we play.

What I've seen this year tells me we'd have a chance.

And, in year one, that's all I'm asking for.

I would be happy to just make it to the game.
