The Playoff Picture

6 November 2009 37 views No Comment

The playoff picture just got a little clearer.

Florida Tuskers (4-0):

The Tuskers are clearly in the playoffs.  Even if they lose their last two games, they would finish at 4-2, but win any tie-breaker against the Redwoods or the Locomotives.

California Redwoods (2-2):

It comes down to this:  Wins against the Locomotives AND the Tuskers gives the Redwoods second place and the right to play the Tuskers in the Championship Game.

Losses to both the Locos and the Tuskers gives the Locomotives second place and the right to play the Tuskers in the Championship Game.

Any combinations of a win and a loss leaves the Redwoods at the mercy of the tie-breaker (see below).


Las Vegas Locomotives (2-2):

If the Locomotives beat the Redwoods, but lose to the Sentinels AND the Redwoods beat the Tuskers in the final game, both teams would finish 3-3.  The Locomotives would win the tie-breaker, as they would have beaten the Redwoods twice in the season.

If the Locomotives beat the Redwoods and the Sentinels, they finish in second (losing the tie-breaker to the Tuskers), and get the right to play the Tuskers in the Championship Game.

If the Locomotives lose to the Redwoods and Sentinels, the Redwoods finish in second.

If the Locomotives lose to the Redwoods, but beat the Sentinels AND the Redwoods beat the Tuskers, both teams finish 3-3.  The Redwoods would take second (as they would be 1-1 against the Tuskers, compared to 0-2 for the Locomotives).

New York Sentinels (0-4):

They are done.
Even if they win out, they would finish 2-4, and the second place team would be the winner of the Redwoods-Locomotives game.
