Right now we are 10-6, tied with SC and Vandy, and A&M and UK are both 11-5. I know we play Mizzou and UK, and A&M has to play Auburn on the road and Vandy at home. So, I guess we obviously need to beat Mizzou and UK. Do we need A&M to lose both? (Not sure how tiebreakers work) SC has Georgia (at home) and Arky on the road. Vandy has Tenn and A&M on the road.

Under what scenario does LSU win the conference, assuming we beat Mizzou tonight and UK at Rupp. (Tall task.) Who should I be rooting for in non-LSU games? I assume if A&M loses both, and Vandy loses to Tenn, and Kentucky loses at Fla and to us, and SC drops a game to Arky or Georgia, we win the SEC. What other scenarios are there?

There's no tie breaker. A tie= co-champs. We need A&M to lose a game this week and to win out and we are Co Champs of SEC

Win out with A&M losing one and they tie for the best record. There is no tiebreaker just all teams are SEC co champions. Tiebreaker is only used for seeding in the tournament. After that it could get pretty crazy with tiebreaker scenarios depending on the number of teams that would be 12-6. After the games tonight and tomorrow you will have a better understanding on what needs to happen Saturday.

I am just hoping for #3, giving LSU the double-bye and not having to face Kentucky until the championship game, assuming Kentucky finishes with a #1 seed, which I'm sure they will.

If aTm loses once and we win out we're guaranteed a share. Could have 4 or 5 teams finish in 1st place if that happens though.

As others have have stated, ties are not broken for the trophy, however the #1 seed must be determined somehow. The answer is record among teams that are tied. There's no telling who all would be tied, but a quick stat would be that LSU would be 2-0 against Kentucky, 1-1 against aTm, 1-0 against Vandy, 0-1 against SC. I didn't look up the other teams records. In the current 3-way tie, USC is 2-0, LSU is 1-1, and Vandy is 0-2, placing LSU as the 4 seed.

We want #4.

A&M will be the 1 seed, most likely.
