We still need to win out and have Tulane lose one more. However, if we take the West, the tie breaker for home field of the conference title after head to head IS BCS, I believe.

Does anyone know for sure what the tie breaker is?

We don't necessarily need Tulane to lose.

3-way tie goes to BCS rankings.

Home field tiebraker for Championship is BCS rankings.

No one is 100% sure what the DIVISIONAL tie breaker is. The Championship Game host is decided by BCS standings, but the only information anyone has been able to find on the divisional is this PDF on the CUSA media site:

That's a good point...No one team holds the tie-break in a 3-way tie

Yes they do if you read the PDF.

Rice is knocked out first, then we are knocked out because Tulane will have a win against a higher standing east division member (ECU).

We either need ECU to collapse and finish behind MTSU (unlikely) or Tulane to lose again (more likely).

Well, the possibility of a three-way tie is almost zero because Tulane and Rice will still play, so I guess now it's either Rice wins or Tulane loses in San Antonio.

Good point.

IF WE WIN OUT:

If Rice wins out, we tie them and win head to head.

If Tulane wins out, we tie them and they beat us head to head.

No matter what, we need Tulane to lose again.

They have:

@UTSA (25% chance of losing)

UTEP (10%)

@Rice (60%)

Most likely, we need to win out, and we need Rice to beat Tulane.

First things first, bury the Miners.

Divisional record is the divisional tie-breaker.

Tulane controls their own destiny, but we're there right behind them if they slip up.

With that being said we still have our own affairs to attend to...

Win out, and turn out. We need big attendance numbers for our remaining games to convince the bowl committees were a better pick or we might end up in Hawaii.

What's that? We have the most second points forced (PF) and the third least points allowed (PA) in the whole conference??

EDIT: Oops, missed Marshall's PF started with a 3 rather than a 2. RAKEEM CATOooooOOOOOooooooo!!!!
