ODU/FAU tied in 9th
ODU just took 9-8 lead in T 9th
ODU beat FAU - we are in 3way tie for 3rd - i will work on tiebreakers shortly
It looks like we lose all tiebreakers: Obviously, Tech gets the third seed if FAU and Charlotte lose.
1) FAU wins, Tech wins, Charlotte wins - FAU (2-1), Tech (1-2), Charlotte (3-3): (3) FAU, (4) Charlotte, (5) Tech
2) FAU loses, Tech wins, Charlotte wins - Charlotte won the season series (2-1): (3) Charlotte, (4) Tech, (5) FAU
3) FAU wins, Tech wins, Charlotte loses - Tech and FAU have identical records vs. So Miss, ODU, and Rice, FAU took 2 of 3 from Charlotte, so FAU would win the tiebreaker: (3) FAU, (4) Tech, (5) Charlotte
4) FAU wins, Tech loses, Charlotte wins - (3) FAU, (4) Charlotte, (5) Tech, (6) Rice (Tech owns the tiebreaker over Rice)
5) FAU loses, Tech loses, Charlotte loses (without Rice win) - same as scenario 1
6) 5 with Rice win - Tech (3-3), Charlotte (3-6), Rice (5-4), FAU (4-2) - (3) FAU, (4) Rice, (5) Tech, (6) Charlotte
7) FAU loses, Tech loses, Charlotte wins - Same series record for FAU and Tech against So Miss, ODU. FAU (2-1) vs Charlotte, Tech (1-2): (3) Charlotte, (4) FAU, (5) Tech; If Rice wins with this one then I'm not sure how the tiebreaker would work since the in the 3 way tie FAU and Tech would both have 2-1 records with Rice being 2-4. Don't feel like dealing with this since the rules don't specify what should happen.
In the event of a Tech Charlotte Rice tie for 4th: Rice (4-2), Charlotte (2-4), Tech (3-3): (4) Rice, (5) Tech, (6) Charlotte
Also if Charlotte and Rice tie alone, Rice would have the tiebreaker. If FAU and Rice would tie alone, then FAU would have the tiebreaker. This was more confusing than I thought... Please feel free to post changes where I messed up. Don't feel like double checking.
Way TO GO Dawgs!

8 FIU
Tiebreaker Rules
vs. USM vs. ODU vs. Charlotte
Tech 0-3 2-1 1-2
FAU 0-3 1-1 2-1
Charlotte DNP 1-2 xx
If Tech, FAU, Charlotte all win tomorrow, I believe Charlotte will be 5 due to record vs. ODU. FAU would be 3 due to better record against Charlotte. (Same scenario if Tech/FAU win & Charlotte loses).
If Tech/Charlotte win, FAU loses - Charlotte 3 (due to record vs. Tech), Tech 4, FAU 5
If all 3 lose - Tech 3, FAU 4, Charlotte 5 due to record vs. ODU
This may not be 100% accurate.
If three or more teams are tied and the group includes two or more teams thatdid not play each other during the season, the process moves to the next tiebreaker.
(3) If a tie between three or more teams persists, the won/lost percentage of thetied teams vs. the team with the highest winning percentage after Conferenceplay. (and proceeding down, if necessary) will be used.
A new article has been posted on www.latechsports.com:
In just seven innings, Louisiana Tech (36-17, 17-12 C-USA) compiled 21 hits and 19 runs in a 19-2 win over Middle Tennessee (23-31, 9-20 C-USA) that evened up the series on Friday night in Murfreesboro.
