Big Sky Tie-breaker for Autobid

Recommended Posts

Here is how it will work with the unbalanced schedule:

13 Team, One Division Format

Eight-game schedule. Two-rival format.

Tiebreaker to determine automatic bid to playoffs.

1. Head-to-head

2. Record against COMMON SCHEDULED CONFERENCE OPPONENTS

in descending order.

3. Record against COMMON CONFERENCE NON-CONFERENCE opponents

in descending order

4. Record against COMMON NON-CONFERENCE OPPONENTS

5. Ratings System (TBA)

6. Coin Flip

Examples of No. 3: If conference teams A & B both scheduled conference team C in a non-conference game (Not scheduled by the league), the results of that game can be used in a tiebreaker. If conference team A played conference team C in a scheduled conference game, but conference team B played conference team C in a non-conference game, that WOULD NOT BE used in a tiebreaker.

Examples of No. 4: If conference teams A&B both scheduled the same non-conference opponent (FBS, FCS or Division II), the results of that game could be used in a tiebreaker.

Sounds like the ratings system used in #5 would either be Sagarin or GPI, but has not been determined yet.

Let's hope that Phil Luckett is NOT flipping the coin. ;)
