Here is the tiebreaker criteria according to the TSSAA:
C: If at any point when the following tie-breaker procedures are applied, one team has beaten all the other teams that are tied for a playoff position, that team shall be rated above the others.
D: In the event of a tie for the region winner, runner-up, third-place or fourth-place team, if either team(s) has defeated the other(s) in regular season play, the team(s) shall be rated above the other(s) in the standings. (After the region winner has been determined, the tie-breaker procedure shall begin all over again starting at the top to work out the runner-up position. The procedure shall be repeated to determine the third-place and fourth-place teams.)
E: The following tie-breaker procedures shall be applied and all regular season games, both region and non-region, shall count. (After each of the following steps have been applied, item C above shall be applied.)
1. The team with the greatest number of victories
2. The team who plays the greatest number of teams who win 50 percent or more of their games.
3. The team who has the greatest number of victories over teams winning 50 percent or more of their games.
4. The team whose opponents have earned the most victories.
5. The team whose opponents have received fewer defeats.
6. Coin flip
Basically it's saying that head to head is the first tiebreaker and if there are more than 2 teams tied with the same district record (and they have all beaten each other) then the overall records of the team is the next tiebreaker. An example would be if FACS defeats Lausanne & Harding Academy beats ECS, there would be a 3-way tie for first between FACS, Lausanne & Harding Academy. All 3 would have beaten each other so the next tiebreaker is overall record. Lausanne would be 9-1, Harding would 8-1 and FACS would be 8-2. Lausanne would be #1. Harding beat FACS head to head to so they would be #2 and FACS #3.
