FAU is Beating Tulane!

Your science said FAU would lose to them.

Your science is a witch, burn her.

You missed it. I found an error in the spreadsheet yesterday and edited the post. FAU overperformed, but they were pegged to win 18-17.

No matter what, the conference should send them to play in Hawai'I.

Except CUSA wants to maintain good relations with the NO bowl. That's why Tulane will probably still go to the NO Bowl unless the bowl wants someone else.

So a phantom error correction comes in just in time to save your data? That's not dubious at all....

Rice is still a decent choice for New Orleans. So are MTSU and ECU depending on how things turn out.

Tulane-ULL matchup would bring 50k. N.O. Bowl committee will kill for that.

lol, yes. I updated at 6:02 PM yesterday after realizing that one of my columns was counting home defense point difference in the wrong direction. Don't doubt my Excel magic.

Today, we want happy owls.

Hooters make me happy!!!!

Nice work FAU.

CUSA site says BCS ranking is CG tie breaker. Not 100% sure what is divisional tie breaker, but this PDF is on the CUSA media site:

I must be missing something. Looks like head to head beats out BCS ranking to me.

That PDF is for divisional ties. CUSA website itself says elsewhere that BCS is used for CG hosting.

Tulane's offense was so terrible that not even thier voodoo could save them:

The way I read it, the first section addresses a tie across divisions for conference championship hosting rights (i.e. our conference record matching Marshall's). The second section addresses a tie for division champion (i.e. our conference record matching Rice's).

You're welcome Mean Green.

Glad to see my Owls FINALLY finish a game. Hopefully we can win out and get bowl elligible. Sad thing is we could easliy be 6-3 right now if we hadnt choked against Marshall, RIce, and MTSU.

Good luck in the west!

I'm Rooting for FAU to #Hit6

well a 3 way tie is pretty much impossible now unless someone drops a really akward one, so head to head will come into play.

A 4 way tie on the other hand is still possible (although not exactly probable). All it takes: UTSA to win out (including games against tulane and NT), and Tulane to beat Rice, and then for all 4 teams to win games against everyone else. So if UTSA beats Tulane they are gonna come into the game against NT still having an outside shot at the conference title.

I am sure the guys at UTSA are talking about this right now

I am sure the guys at UTSA are talking about this right now

And I'm sure they are talking about which conference invitation to accept, the Big 12 or the SEC.

Oh no, they're definitely losing @UTSA. Remember, it's...
