My larger point is that there are too many scenarios at this point to even hazard a good guess.
Trying to decide who to "pull for" is tricky at best, as it could backfire. Just a little crazy.
Easiest potential tiebreaker is to pull for us to be in a 2-way tie with UK. If not that, then a 2-way tie with UF if they lose the series to UK, or a 2-way tie with LSU if we win that series.
Only ones we lose are ties with LSU in which they win our upcoming series, Auburn, and UF, if the tie-breaker is LSU (if they win our series) or UK (if they sweep UK and UK is still best record common opponent).
You said we are 2-0 against UK and that we win the tiebreaker unless UF sweeps them...but if they go 2-1, then we're equal there and have to move onto the next team. Because we're actually 2-1 against UK.
But there really aren't that many scenarios. It's going to either be UK or LSU (and you're right that if we or UF sweeps one of them, we likely won't be tied anyway), or, if we end up with the same record against those two, it's going to be Auburn. Those are the scenarios.
This is assuming we tie with Florida. It's hard to envision a scenario where we tie with anyone else.
