Nice win for the Bearcats! Who thought we would be 9-1 and now what seemed like at the beginning of the year an impossible dream - a conference championship - is in front of us. The Bearcats control their own destiny and UCF can be taken down by this team.

Unfortunately not. If we win out and Temple wins out, they have the tiebreaker and the win in the AAC East. Houston losing to Temple last night was a big disappointment for Bearcat fans. We need to hope that Charlie Strong figures something out to beat Temple next week.

If UC beats UCF and UC, Temple, UCF all finish with 1 loss I believe the tie breaker will be highest ranking in CFP poll which you would think would be UC.
Actually, UC would have the edge because of ties down through several breakers. The clincher, given a 3-way tie, would be overall record among the 3 teams. UC & UCF would be 11-1 each, but TU would be 8-4. Then, it would revert to a 2-way tie between UC & UCF. UC would come out on top. The CFB playoff ranking is even further down the priority list.

Just win, baby!
Im sorry, where do you see that? In a scenario where UC, Temple, and UCF all have 1 loss (with UC beating UCF), I see the tie breaker scenario going to item G. Overall record among the 3 teams would be the same, 1-1.
In the event of a two-team tie within a division, the head-to-head winner between the tied teams will be the championship game representative.
In the event of a multiple-team tie within a division, the following tiebreaker criteria will be used, in order:
· Head-to-head record against the tied teams
· Divisional winning percentage
· Record against each team in the divisional standings, in descending order
· Record against common non-divisional conference opponents
· Overall winning percentage
· Most recent College Football Playoff Selection Committee rankings (provided the highest-ranked team won its final game)
· Average of selected computer rankings
The clincher is overall winning percentage; tied elsewhere above that. That knocks out Temple & sends it to a 2-team race, settled by a UC win.
Great win, but I wished UC would have put more pressure on the qb in the first half. We gave him all the time in the world to throw the ball and he found 2 guys deep. We really need to get that early pressure to make them nervous about standing in the pocket. I just didn't see any blitzes like we have done in earlier games this year. Maybe they were afraid to do that with White in there in place of Young?

That is the old tie breaker for a three way tie. You probably copied that from Wikipedia. This is the current. Provided in the link i posted above.
C. MULTIPLE TEAM TIE FOR THE DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP
a. If three or more teams are tied atop a division at the end of the season, the following criteria are used to eliminate teams until just two teams remain, at which point the two-team tiebreaking procedure is used;
b. If one team defeated all other teams, then that team shall be declared the division champion;
c. If still tied, and if two teams defeated the additional tied team (s), the defeated team(s) is eliminated;
d. If still tied, highest winning percentage of tied teams within the division;
e. If still tied, head-to-head competition against the team within the division with the next best overall Conference winning percentage (4, 5, and 6) breaking ties using the conference tie-breaking procedures proceeding through the division until one team prevails;
f. If still tied, combined highest winning percentage against all common non-divisional Conference opponents;
g. If still tied, if one team was ranked in the latest available CFP Selection Committee rankings and wins in the final weekend of the Conference regular season, they will be declared the division champion, If in that same scenario, the team that was the highest-ranked team in the latest available CFP Selection Committee rankings loses in the final weekend of the Conference regular season, a composite average of selected computer rankings (Anderson & Hester, Billingsley, Colley and Wolfe) will be used to determine the division champion; h. If there are multiple teams ranked in the latest available CFP Selection Committee rankings, the highest-ranked team that wins in the final weekend of the Conference regular season will be declared the division champion; i. If none of the ranked teams win in the final weekend of the Conf
