2025 Playoff Outlook After Week 13

[Liquid Swords]

After 13 weeks, the division winners have been determined as well as their playoff seedings regardless of their week 14 results.

The wild card seeds appear to have 2 of the 3 spots confirmed with the Opihi and Floyds locked in with their all-play records regardless of their records after week 14. The Cajuns currently have control of the third spot. A Cajuns win or Floyds loss, secures the third spot. If Floyds win and Cajuns lose with a near-the-bottom week 14 all-play record, the door cracks open for the Moonshiners or Freedom with a near-the-top week 14 all-play record to sneak in. Cajuns currently hold an 8 game all-play win advantage over the Moonshiners and Freedom. Still too close to call the 4-6 seedings.

1 seed - 36 Chambers
2 seed - Tommyknockers (H2H over Wiener Dogs if tie)
3 seed - Wiener Dogs
4 seed - Cajuns, Floyds, or Opihi
5 seed - Cajuns, Floyds, or Opihi
6 seed - Cajuns, Floyds, Freedom, Moonshiners, or Opihi

The results are in. Here's our 2025 playoff picture:

1 seed - 36 Chambers 12-2 (Derrick Thomas Memorial division champion)
2 seed - Tommyknockers 10-4 (Reggie White Memorial division champion)
3 seed - Wiener Dogs 9-5 (Pat Tillman Memorial division champion)
4 seed - Floyds 8-6 (H2H over Cajuns) and 98-56 all-play
5 seed - Opihi 9-5 and 93-61 all-play
6 seed - Cajuns 8-6 and 81-73 all-play

The division winners get the top 3 playoff spots and are seeded according to overall record. The wild card spots go to the top 2 remaining records where Floyds had the season H2H victory over Cajuns. The Cajuns take the final playoff spot with the most all-play wins of the remaining teams. The wild card seeds, unlike the division winners, are seeded by their all-play record.

I think seeds 4 and 5 swap, as Opihi had better record than Floyds.

Tiebreakers to determine the wildcard will be:
1. W-L record

That's for determining who the wild card teams are. The seeding is based on all-play. Here's the latest rule: http://predsff.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34407

Seeding for Wild Card Teams will be as follows
All-Play Record
Overall Record
H2H (see note in link above)
Overall Points Scored
Defensive Points Scored
Offensive Points Scored
Random.org dice roll
