Pretty cut and dried now. Win the next 3 finish first. Lose any of the next 3 and finish third.
FIRST OR THIRD
Can someone confirm if the following is correct? Based on the SoCon tiebreaker rules, if we win out and Samford wins 2 of 3, we would be tied for #1 seed. It would then go to the tiebreaker. If we beat Samford, we would be 2-0 against them head to head. That gives us the #1 seed. Is it that simple?

If we somehow finish tied for second with UNCG, we get the No. 2 seed because Furman went 1-1 against Samford and UNCG went 0-2.

Easiest for me to count wins at this point
UNCG is 13-3 and will finish w 13,14 or 15 wins. Loses tie break to Samford (0-2 head to head) and loses Furman (since we already have a w against Samford)
Samford is 14-2 and will finish w 14,15 or 16 wins. Wins tie break v UNCG (above). Loses tie break to Furman if Furman wins next Saturday but Wins tiebreak v Furman w a win (2-0 record v UNCG.
Furman is 12-3 and finishes w 12,13,14 or 15 wins. Wins tiebreak v Samford. W/L tiebreak w Samford depending on game next Saturday as above
UNCG wins #1 seed only if they win out and Samford loses out and Furman loses at least 1 game. Very unlikely scenario
Samford wins #1seed with 1 win and any Furman loss (win next Saturday would achieve both)
Furman wins #1 seed with a Win against Samford and a second win (combined w another loss by Samford and UNCG). Of course winning out clinches #1 seed.
Furman, Samford and UNCG all certainly could be #1, 2 or 3 seed depending the outcome of the last games.
