If we have one less game played, then that means we need to be one ahead in the loss column. If we go into the USC series with the same number of losses, or one less loss, we will have to win two out of three. With an equal number of games played, if we went into USC with one less loss, we could lose two out of three and still tie for the overall SEC title.


but still loose the SEC

no matter how many games we win this weekend, assuming we are within a game at worst of USCe we have to win the series to win the Conference next weekend. Its straight forward as that.

Tie for the overall title = SEC Championship (shared, but that's irrelevant)

Missing a game this weekend puts us a half-game back of where we would be if we played and won said game. That half-game can make the difference.

If we are 19-8 and they are 18-9 going into next weekend, we can lose 2/3 and still share the SEC title at 20-10. If we are 18-8 and they are 18-9, losing 2/3 means we don't share the title.
