What if we lose to New Mexico and then New Mexico loses to afa? Then it would be a 4 way tie between us, afa, New Mexico and unlv. How do the tie breakers work in that scenario?

We beat AFA and UNLV...so we would have the advantage there....

I've seen plenty of Wyoming teams lose games than this. Great win, even if the ball control was to be desired.

...and Bows beating the Bizon right now....

Cody said that is not necessarily the case… somehow

The only factor besides head to head is the CFP ranking. I am not thinking there will be any MWC team with a worthy ranking.

Fugly win

Actually felt like we dominated outside the 3 fumbles that derailed our O.

Against each other in this scenario:

Wyoming 2-1
AFA 2-1
UNLV 1-2
UNM 1-2

Wyoming should be the host by beating AFA.

There is a big document on the mwc website about it. I read it last week and think I followed it but you never know what the conference might do…

If there is a scenario of 5 teams at 5-2 then the records head to head will be 2-2 for each team and that is where the tiebreaker resolution gets difficult.

The trap wasn't thankfully
