  • Overall strength of schedule (average opponents' winning percentage)
  • Head-to-head competition
  • Results against common opponents
  • Eligibility and availability of student-athletes

When teams under considerataion are tied on all criteria above, the committee will consider the following secondary criteria in the selection process (again not in priority order):
