If ku wins today, we lose next week, then where do we stand for Big 12 champ game I relize what that champ game result would be but let wondering how this could play out.

We don't stand anywhere.  We win next week we are the North champs - we lose and we aren't champs and don't go bowling.  Nebraska's outcome against CU and ku don't mean anything

There is a scenario whereby nubb losses to ku and CU and ISU wins out.  This is a 3 way tie and KSU holds tie breaker this way: 

1.  Records of ISU, NU and KSU against each other are all 1-1
2.  Records of ISU, NU and KSU against the division.  KSU and ISU would be 3-2, NU is 2-3. 
3.  This leaves ISU and KSU tied and thus KSU wins by head to head.

There is another scenario similar to above, but ku wins out:

1.  Records of ku, NU and KSU against each other are all 1-1
2.  Records of ku, NU and KSU against the division.  KSU and ku would be 3-2, NU is 2-3. 
3.  This leaves ku and KSU tied and thus KSU wins by head to head.

There is a 4 way tie scenario: KSU loses out; NU wins vs KSU, loses to ku and CU; CU loses to ISU, wins vs OSU and NU and ISU wins out:

1.  Records of KSU, NU, CU and ISU against each other: KSU is 2-1, NU is 1-2, CU is 1-2 and ISU is 2-1.
2.  This leaves ISU and KSU tied and thus KSU wins by head to head.

Amazingly, there is a 5 way tie scenario:  KSU loses out; NU wins vs KSU, loses to ku and CU; CU loses to ISU, wins vs OSU and NU; ISU wins out; and ku wins out:

1.  Records of KSU, NU, CU, ISU and ku against each other: KSU is 3-1, NU is 1-3, CU is 2-2; ISU is 2-2; and ku is 2-2.
2.  KSU wins by virtue of best record.

Will any of this happen ?   I could win the lottery too...

OK, you can throw out all the inane 3, 4 and 5 way ties now.  It is guaranteed that either KSU, NU or both will reach 5 conference wins.  No other North team can get to 5 wins.

Because of that, winner takes the North next Saturday in Lincoln.

Love how all the talking heads say NU controls its own destiny. But quietly as a footnote, K-state could also make the Dr. Pepper if they beat NU. I don't know if they realize more than one team can control their own destiny
