Clarification: ISU's tiebreak versus KSU

Under the rules stated at Big12sports.com, ISU loses the tiebreaker against KSU:

If both teams finish tied, since they split their head-to-head, the next tiebreaker is the record against North Division teams.

Right now, ISU has losses against KSU and Nebraska. KSU has only a loss to ISU.

Unless the Cornhuskers can do to KSU what they did to ISU in Lincoln, ISU loses that one.

The third tiebreaker is record against teams in order of finish, which can't be computed until the season ends.

Cross your fingers it doesn't come into play.
