I really feel like our program is inching up to that next level. If you're a basketball player in the mid south, you've got to consider Mississippi State.
I beleive that we will have a share of the west title if we beat LSU, and Arkansas wins their remaining SECW games. Our loss to Arkansas or Ole Miss put us in this situation since both Arkansas and MSU have two SECW losses and we have split with Arkansas. We need Auburn or Ole Miss to beat Arkansas and we must beat LSU to win outright. The announcers for the Al/Ark game last night kept stating that we would share the title, and I believe they are correct in that statement as it stands right now.
The Bulldogs clinch the West if one of the following happen: MSU wins at Florida; MSU wins at Vanderbilt; MSU wins versus LSU; Vanderbilt wins at Arkansas; Mississippi wins versus Arkansas; Auburn wins at Arkansas.
we are 10-3. We beat LSU and are at worst 11-5. Best Ark Kansas can finish is 10-6 in that they are 7-6 now. They were using Ozark math....
the divisional title? Two of our last three against eastern division teams with LSU remaining. Arkansas has to sweep all three, and we just need to win one. I think we will beat Florida, due to match up issues inside, lose to Vandy, and beat LSU. You are saying that the majority of Arkansas's losses have come to east division foes, and state's has come to western division foes, but I thought that the most wins gets the title regardless of who beats you. Am I wrong, apparently?

For a three-team tie: 1. Total won-lost record of games played among the tied teams (Example: Team A is 3-1, Team B is 2-2 and Team C is 1-3 - - Team A would be seeded highest, Team B second-highest and Team C lowest of the three); 2. division record (10 games); 3. record vs. No. 1 team in division proceeding through the No. 6 team if necessary; 4. non-division record (6 games); 5. record vs. No. 1 team in the opposite division proceeding through the No. 6 team if necessary; 6. coin flip by the Commissioner.
Once a three-team tie has been reduced to two teams, the two-team tiebreakers go in effect.
Thanks, SEC!

Yes. So fast. I mentioned that we haven't clinched a #1 seed, but the fact is the worst we could finish is 10-6 and the best Arkansas can finish is 10-6. If that happened, we would BOTH be SEC West champions, regardless of seeding in the SEC tournament.
