Why tiebreaker with Iowa State?

[JDSooners]

Just curious

Not sure exactly what you're asking, but we would own a tie breaker over ISUin conference seeding because of our sweep over texas

Why a sweep over Texas? That gives advantage over Iowa State?
Is that the best conference sweep between the teams playing for the No. 2 seed?

Best round robin record between tied teams.

KSU 3-3
ISU 3-3
ut 2-4

That makes sense to me, but this makes me wonder then... Why would KSU have the tiebreaker over us? Their win against KU?

After head to head, the tiebreaker is record against top team in standings, then vs. second-best team, etc.

Basically...in order to get the best seed in KC, three things need to happen:
1.) We need to win out.
2.) The teams that we have swept (OSU, Texas, Baylor) need to win out.
3.) The top tier teams that we split with (KSU, ISU) need to lose a game.

If OU and UT win out, OU is the #2. It doesn't matter what anyone else does.
