Pretty soon we're going to end up with 2 undefeated teams in the same conference.

I guess we'll just name them co-champs?

I mean this isn’t unprecedented

Just off the top of my head, Ohio State and Iowa both went undefeated in conference play in 2002 and split the conference title.

Of course splits with teams that had losses happened all the time in the pre CCG days
