We have five conference AQ still to be decided going into the final weekend. If your conference (except the MVFC, that one is pretty cut and dried) will decide its autobid this weekend, what are the scenarios for the main players?

If MSU, EWU and Cal Poly tie at 7-1, the automatic bid would go to Eastern Washington. All three teams would have played Sacramento State in league games. Cal Poly would be eliminated because of a loss to the Hornets. MSU and EWU both beat Sac State, so the tiebreaker would revert to the head-to-head meeting between MSU and EWU, which the Eagles won.

If MSU, EWU and NAU tie at 7-1, the automatic bid would go to Montana State. All three teams would have played Southern Utah, and Montana State is the only one of the three to have a win over the Thunderbirds.

If EWU and Cal Poly tie at 7-1, EWU would get the automatic bid because of a head-to-head win over the Mustangs.

If MSU and Cal Poly tie at 7-1, MSU would get automatic win because of its win over Sacramento State.

If MSU and NAU tie at 7-1, MSU would get the automatic bid because of the Bobcats’ win over
Southern Utah.

If EWU and NAU tie at 7-1, the highest team in the Sagarin Rating would determine the automatic bid.

Only the first 3 will really come into play, because EWU will beat PSU.
