Excerpt:

Three-Way Tie (A "mini-conference" is created among the three tied teams.)

Scenario 2
All three teams have 6-2 conference records. Within the mini-conference, Team A is 2-0, Team B is 1-1, and Team C is 0-2.


1. If Team A is ranked higher than Teams B and C, Team A earns the BCS bid.
2. If Team A is not the highest ranked, but is in the Top 10, Team A earns bid unless Team B or C is ranked either #1 or #2 in the BCS standings, then Team B or C receives the BCS bid.
3. If Team A is not ranked, but the highest ranked team in the mini-conference is ranked #21 or lower, Team A earns the BCS bid.
4. If Team A is not the highest ranked team and is ranked more than five spots below the highest ranked team in the mini-conference, Team A is eliminated from consideration.

Subsequently,
1. If Team B is ranked higher than Team C, Team B earns the BCS bid.
2. If Team B is ranked lower than Team C, but is in the Top 10, Team B earns bid unless Team C is ranked either #1 or #2 in the BCS standings, then Team C receives the BCS bid.
3. If Team B is ranked lower than Team C, but ranked five or fewer spots below Team C, Team B earns bid, unless Team C is ranked either #1 or #2 in the BCS standings, then Team C receives the BCS bid.
4. If Team B is ranked lower than Team C, but is ranked six or more spots below Team C, Team C earns the BCS bid.



Scenario 3
Of the three teams which are tied, two or more have not played each others during the regular season, then: 1. If two or all of the tied teams have not played each other, then the BCS bid goes to the highest ranked teams in the final BCS standings.
2. If two or all of the tied teams have not played each other, and all three teams are not ranked, then the BCS Bowl would select the team of its choice from among the tied teams.
