PPO FF - Playoff Tie-Breakers

**Zeus** · 11-23-2010, 10:29 AM

Just an FYI - here are the tie-breakers that will be used for determining if you make the playoffs.

Overall record is, of course, the first criteria. In case of ties there, then:

1. Head-to-head record vs. all teams tied. So - if there's a 3-way tie and one team is 2-0 vs. the other two teams, then they qualify.

2. Total Points scored in all games.

3. Conference winning percentage (God, I hope we don't have to go to this level)

After the 16 playoff teams have been selected I will then seed them according to the following:

* Seeds 1-4 are the #1 teams from each division, seeding determined by OVERALL record and TOTAL POINTS scored.

* Seeds 5-8 are the #2 teams, 9-12 are the #3 teams, 13-16 are the #4 teams.

After the seeding is done, I will then set the playoff brackets and let the fun begin.

After this week the Vikings could be mathematically eliminated from the division if the packers win and the Vikings lose.
Have to wait a couple weeks before they are mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

Ok, I should read then post.
Fantasy football.
So when do the playoff start? What is the predicted cut(do I have a chance in hell at 5-6?).
Is there a loser bracket, for us losers?
How come when I look at the standing a couple teams only have 10 games, was there a tie that isn't showing on their records?

Yes, you still have a chance, as far as I can tell without going into all of the tie-breakers.

No.

The two teams in question both failed to submit a lineup in Week 1, so there were no lineups or tie-breaker players for them. In that case, the game was shown to be no-contest, resulting in neither a win, loss or tie for those teams.
