Check out Jason Groves' tiebreakers post

Jason Groves has posted a blog entry all about the WAC tie breaker rules. Currently, it seems only Utah State will be immune from such involvement.

As an example:

Fresno State and SJSU are both at 5-9.

* SJSU lost 75-62 in Fresno but won 78-66 at home.

* as for next games: the Spartans face Hawaii at home and then Boise State on the road -- Fresno State is at Idaho and then hosts Hawaii

Here is what I have located about tie-breakers for the WAC:

17. Tie-Breaking Principles
a. General Procedures
The following procedures are to be used to determine seeding for a Conference tournament...
Regulations
[1] Ties for all places in the standings (between two teams or three or more teams) which can be broken based upon head-to-head competition are broken before the implementation of further tie-breaking procedures.

and

b. Tie-Breaking Procedures
[1] Two-Way Tie:

[i] The winner of the head-to-head competition is the higher seed.

[ii] If the tie is for first place, compare the tied teams

So, Fresno State lost twice to Utah State and twice to Boise State while SJSU has lost twice to Utah State and once to Boise State.(who is in second place right now) with the final game of the regular season being BSU hosting SJSU.

So these remaining games are going to be important to everyone, minus USU.

The Spartans certainly have more momentum right now as Fresno State is stumbling.
