you do realize we can lose and still won the west right? we control our own destiny.
Actually, with the new tie breaker you would not win the west if Alabama also only had one loss, even though you beat us.
Tie breaker is no longer head-to-head. It is combined record of cross division opponents.
Ole miss: Vandy and Tennessee
Bama: Florida and Tennessee

False.
In a two-way tie, head-to-head is still what matters. In a multi-way tie (let's say three teams finish 11-1) where head-to-head doesn't work (X>Y>Z>X), then it goes down to other tiebreakers, the eighth of which is cross division opponent records.
After that it's a coin toss.
