Actually it will come down to who between Marshall and UTSA earns the 4th seed. If it is Marshall then WKU owns the tiebreaker with MTSU for the 1 seed since they lost to Marshall. If it is UTSA then MTSU holds the tiebreaker and would be the 1 seed since WKU lost to UTSA.

Both WKU and MTSU beat ODU...it doesn't matter that WKU is 2-0 and MTSU is 1-0. According to WKU SID that tie breaker is based on winning percentage and not number of wins.

Huh, maybe I found an older set of rules:

MT AD says 2-0 does not beat 1-0 in tiebreaker, according to conference rules ............

but it would be nice if we could see it in writing (for the current season)

Well I'm sure they're right. So WKU/MT would have same record against ODU at #3. MT has a loss to Marshal and WKU has a loss to UTSA so if Marshall is #4, WKU is #1 and if UTSA is #4 MT is #1? All assuming Western beats Middle this Thursday.

Correct...not same record but same winning percentage vs ODU. WKU 2-0 while MTSU is 1-0. So both teams are 100% against Monarchs. MTSU 1-1 for 50% against Marshall while WKU is 2-0 for 100%. MTSU 1-0 vs UTSA while WKU is 0-1.
