Oops. If stAte wins out and ULM wins out, and Louisiana loses to Coastal, USA or Troy, then stAte wins the tiebreaker with ULM.
If stAte and ULM win out and Louisiana loses only to ULM, the computers will decide, likely in favor of Louisiana.
Things will clear up a little more each week.
You are correct a 3 team 6-2 tie between UL/ULM/AState would come down to computers provided UL's loss was to ULM. There are 7 tiebreaks before it, but none apply
1. head to head (In this scenario 1-1 for all three)
2. Record against Texas State/South Alabama combined
3. Record Against Texas State individually
4. Record Against South Alabama individually
5. Combined record against Eastern Division considering all opponents.
6. CF Playoff rankings
7. Results of last weekend of season (If Multiple teams are ranked)
8. Combined Computer Rankings
9. Best Nonconference record against FBS teams
10. Karaoke contest
11. Naked Mud Wrestling
12. Coin Flip.
I may have made a couple of those up, but the tiebreakers aren't exactly the clearest things to read.
AState needs to win out and hope UL loses to Coastal and ULM (Troy and South are pretty much freebies) ULM needs to win out and hope AState loses to Coastal or Southern (With South being a freebie)
