    Also, that rule just seems rediculous in this case when it gives teams in the same division (I know its not seperated in basketball, but schedule wise it pretty much is) a bonus fo simply playing each other twice, and in one case, losing twice.

    C-USA Basketball Championships Seeding Tiebreaker

    Tiebreaker. Ties in winning percentage, and thus for seeding positions shall be broken according to the following;

    1. Between TWO teams
    a. Head to head
    b. If still tied, compare records versus teams with highest winning percentage in Conference play and descending order until tie is broken. When arriving at a set of tied teams (i.e., winning percentage) while comparing records, use each team's record versus the COLLECTIVE tied teams as a group (prior to that group’s own tiebreaking process).
    c. If tie remains, seeding will be based upon the most recent RPI standings.

    2. Between THREE or more teams
    a. Conduct a mini round robin among the tied teams. Team with the highest winning percentage will receive the higher seed (#).
    b. If a three-way tie still exists after conducting the round robin, follow Step 1b, then Step 1c if needed. If at any point the number of teams tied reduces to two, steps 1 a-c are followed.

    (#) When comparing records against single teams or groups of teams, the highest winning percentage prevails, even if the number of games played is unequal.

    Rice up 42-31 with 6:25 left.
    Actually, rereading, that doesnt seem to apply.
    Between 3 teams, by rule 2a (with #) they should simply be seeded by winning percentage. It doesnt say it suddenly turns into a two way tie, as it is not deemed a tie by rule 2a.

    We would not go to rule 2b, so that clause is not applicable.

    3-way does not exist after conducting the round-robin because MT is removed from the tie.

    You are reading 2b, which hinges on there still being a tie after the round robin. Which there isnt.

    Rice fouls with 3.2 left. 3rd Rice foul of the quarter.

    Rice wins 47-45.

    The two "if" sentences in 2b carry the same weight because they both cannot happen at the same time.

    Doesn't matter anyway.

    MTSU should be 4, they beat charlotte both times. I think Charlotte goes to 6th with Rice's win.
