WEEKEND CHAMPIONSHIP SCENARIOS
With the addition of the 9th game, the NESCAC adopted a new championship format in football that will allow for tie-breakers to determine a single champion.
-If Amherst wins on Saturday, they will be the lone NESCAC Champion. They hold the head to head tie-breaker with Trinity.
-If there is a 3-way tie between Amherst, Wesleyan and Trinity at 7-2, Amherst is the champion with wins over both Trinity and Wesleyan.
-Middlebury can still win it outright with a win over Tufts and Amherst and Trinity loses. This would create a 4-way tie with Middlebury holding a 2-1 record against the 3 other teams.
