The tiebreaker used to determine the 2nd team in the MAC Championship game is one of the most asinine things I’ve ever seen.

Yes I’m biased as an Ohio alum, but holy shit.

Miami (Oh), Toledo, and Ohio all finished the regular season with the same conference record (6-2) and tied for 2nd in the MAC.

Miami went 0-2 against UT and OU. Toledo and Ohio didn’t play each other.

However, since all three teams didn’t play each other the tiebreaker apparently jumped straight to common opponents.

Miami beat Ball State and W. Michigan, who beat Ohio and Toledo respectively.

Therefore Miami is in the championship game despite losing to BOTH of the other teams tied for 2nd.

That’s some hardcore Maction for you right there.
