Title: Tie Breaker Question
Post by: Canada8999 on May 15, 2011, 02:41:42 PM
Not a major thing, but I was thinking about this and figured we should clarify before it comes up:

Quote
Regular Season Tiebreakers
If two or more teams in a division are tied for a playoff spot then the order of tiebreakers is determined by:
1) Head to head record
2) Divisional record
3) Fantasy points scored
Two or more teams not in the same division that are tied for a playoff spot use fantasy points scored as the sole tiebreaker. 

If teams have an uneven number of divisional games just based on how the schedule shakes out, is the 2) tie breaker divisional win percentage or most wins / fewest losses?

I think Win % looks like the most fair option due to the variance in schedules.

Correct.  I don't think there is anything to split hairs over here.  If two teams are tied with total W-L, but one is 60-25 in the division and the other is 58-20 then the 58-win team advances based on divisional record.

Sounds good to me.  I envision some pretty close finishes, where something like this could come into play ... can we append (win%) to 2) in the rules section just so it is clear and no one gets upset?
