Assuming Dartmouth or Cornell do not start going on a win streak and make it a 3 way or 4 way tie at the end, that is.

  • rbg Said:
If I read that correctly, Columbia would hold the second tiebreaker with Penn since the Lions have one win against the present #2 team (Harvard) and the Quakers have one win against the #3 team (Yale).



Right, assuming that Penn loses to Columbia (otherwise it wins the first tiebreaker).

If Penn loses to Columbia, Columbia loses to Princeton and the teams are otherwise all square leading up to the last game, the Penn-Harvard and Columbia-Yale games at the end will be insane. If both Penn and Columbia win their final games, as I read it that means we go to the composite rankings to break the tie and Penn seems quite likely to win that one.
