Now that we dropped divisions, what are the new tie-breaker rules?

I haven't been able to find these but considering the start of the 2024 season is a few months away, surely they have agreed to a set of tie-breakers, right?

It is my understanding that they haven't been announced yet...I have to imagine:
1. Head to head (see below)
2. Record against common opponents?
3. Playoff Ranking?
This is how the Big 12 did it last year:

3. Playoff Ranking?
This is how the Big 12 did it last year:
quote:
1. Head-to-head (best cumulative win percentage in games among the tied teams). If not, every tied team has played each other, go to step 2.
2. Record against the next highest placed common opponent in the standings (based on record in all games played within the conference), proceeding through the standings.
Head-to-head matchups are going to be the top way for teams to determine who would advance to the Big 12 Championship in the event of a tie. In a multi-team tie, all teams would need to have played one another for a round-robin schedule to matter, unless one of the teams in the group of tied teams has swept the remaining teams it is tied with.

well it's possible for 3 teams to go undefeated..
now it isn't likely.. but it is possible..
Ole Miss.. Texas.. Alabama.. don't play each other
I'm sure there are other combinations as well..
they also all play Georgia..
what happens if they each go 7-1 with the loss to Georgia?

Strength of schedule should be considered. A team gifted with one of the easiest schedules in conference history should not be placed above teams playing a normal sec season if number of wins are the same.
