Tiebreaker rules are below. Assuming the following, it appears opponents' conference winning percentage would likely be the deciding factor.
We win out - 7-1
Texas wins out - 7-1
A & M beats LSU but wins out other than Texas - 7-1
LSU loses to A & M and then wins out - 7-1

Tiebreaker rules below:
- Head-to-head competition among the tied teams if all tied teams played each other or 1 team beat or lost to all tied teams. (None)
- Record versus all common Conference opponents among the tied teams. (All undefeated against common conference opponents.)
- Record against highest (best) placed common Conference opponent in the Conference standings, and proceeding through the Conference standings among the tied teams. (All undefeated against common conference opponents.)
- Cumulative Conference winning percentage of all Conference opponents among the tied teams. (Note, if 1 team wins here, you revert to rule 1 for the remaining 3 but you likely come back here under the scenario above.)
- Capped relative total scoring margin versus all Conference opponents among the tied teams. (While still not likely, there is a real possibility this comes into play year 1.)
- Random draw of the tied teams
