This past season we went with a 162 game schedule where we played the teams in our division more than any other. The head-to-head tiebreaker is actually set up for use in Fantrax this year, with fantasy points being the second tiebreaker.
First Rule -- Head to head record vs team(s) tied with
Second Rule -- Most fantasy points scored this season
This past season, the Giants and Cardinals tied for the last Wild Card spot. The Giants won the head to head matchup with the Cardinals 5-2 and scored more fantasy points 181796.09 - 167695.71.
It's a given that there are variables which affect us all and there are things we have no control over. During this past week, injuries to several key players affected my matchup with the Cubs and my team will be eliminated, but all of us have to deal with injuries and off-days, along with key performers who lay an egg and give us nothing--but one of the reasons we went to our present schedule over the random one generated by Fantrax, was to give more value to head-to-head matchups.
