1. Head to head
2. Record against #1 team in standings (FAU) and proceeding down through the standings (2,3,4,etc.) until one of the tied teams had a better record agaist that opponent.
• Example (2 teams): UTEP and La Tech both finished with a 7-13 record and were 1-1 against each other. Both teams were 0-2 against FAU; 0-2 against NTX; 0-2 against UAB. UTEP was 1-1 against MTSU while LaTech was 0-2 - UTEP wins tiebreaker.
• Example (3+ teams): FIU, Rice and WKU all finished with 8-12 records.
1. Record against all other tied teams:
Rice 3-1
FIU 2-2
WKU 1-3

Gotta say, I really like this tiebreaker rule!

No big upsets. 1-4 in the Semis. 3 of the 4 are leaving, but looks like some traditionally good teams have just had down years.
