Statistically Speaking – 2015 2nd Season Scenario Special

Statistically Speaking

Trying to squeeze some of this out in pieces…most of the positions are locked in…but there are still a few cracks that can be breached in Week 13…

Playoff Picture

Fantasy Bowl XVIII

If The Playoffs Started Today:

#1 Seed - XFA (9-3-0) - DIV Champion (Locked in as Buccaneer Champ)
#2 Seed - BAT (8-3-1) - DIV Champion (BAT WIN or AND LOSS locks)
#3 Seed - HUS (6-6-0) - DIV Champion (HUS WIN or BBA LOSS locks)
#4 Seed - AND (7-4-1) - Wildcard (½ game lead...)
#5 Seed - UOG (7-5-0) - Wildcard (By H2H WIN over WAR in Week 10)
#6 Seed - WAR (7-5-0) - Wildcard

X-Factor running off a 4-Game Win Streak and everyone else in the Division taking a loss over the last 2 Weeks has locked them in as the Buccaneer Division Champions…it is their 3rd time winning the title…and on a 3 year pattern (2009…2012…2015)…Bay Area Thrashers loss to Armed N Dangerous in Week 12 has moved them up to the #1 Seed…They can lock it in with a Win against Hurricanes or a Thrashers loss to Legends…but no matter the outcome in Week 13…they will finish no worse than the #2 Seed and have a BYE for Wildcard Weekend…

#2 Seed Bay Area Thrashers still control their own destiny…but left the door open for Armed N Dangerous…a Win against Playground Legends guarantees them their 8th Storm Division title…a 2nd 3-Peat of the award (2003-2005)…and no worse than the #2 Seed…A Loss gives Armed N Dangerous a chance…if AND beats UO Grandmasters…there would be a tie at (8-4-1)…and Armed N Dangerous would win their 6th Division title by benefit of a 1½ to ½ Head-2-Head record advantage (ties count as ½ a Win)…If BAT does not win the Division…they will finish no worse than the #4 Seed with a ½ game edge over any other possible 8 Win Team…If AND does not win the Division…they will finish no worse than the #6 Seed with a ½ game edge over any other possible 7 Win Team…

#3 Seed Husslers win over Fudgie Whales has left them in control of their own destiny…a Win over 6-Game Losing Streak Money Inc would give them their 2nd Bandit Division Championship…winning them in Back-2-Back Seasons…an AMAZINGSTREAK ENDINGUPSET VICTORY by the Money Men in Week 13 (no bias or anything…) would open the door for the Worst Waste of Roster Talent in TBFL History (1,127 Bench Points)…Bubba Army…a win over Fudgie Whales would then give them a ½ game edge and their 5th Division Title…but a BBA loss would leave HUS as the champion and the #3 Seed even with a losing record at (6-7-0)…whatever team does not win the title will miss the 2015 Playoffs…

#5 Seed UO Grandmasters can not win their Division sitting 1½ back with 1 to play…but they have guaranteed themselves a Playoff Slot…as stated above…a Win over BAT opens the door for Armed N Dangerous…and keeps them locked with 8 Wins…A loss by Grandmasters would leave them in a tie with either a 7 Win RNT or WAR team…UOG defeated WAR Head-2-Head in Week 10…they did not play RNT this season…but would edge them out on Division Record for any tie break…

On The Outside Looking In:

RNT (6-6-0) (Win & In)
BBA (5-6-1) (DIV Champion or Bust)

Runs N Throses plays Warriors in Week 13 in what will be a “Win & In” game for both teams…Warriors winning would give them 8 Wins and a guaranteed slot…Throser winning would force a tie at 7 Wins…the teams split Head-2-Head…and would have the same (2-4-0) Division Record…the tie would then be broken by Total Points Scored…which RNT already leads 1338 to 1216…

RNT (7-6-0) | (1-1-0) | (2-4-0) | 1338 Points
WAR (7-6-0) | (1-1-0) | (2-4-0) | 1216 Points

EMPIRE CUP

Empire Cup

#1 Seed - RNT (6-6-0)
#2 Seed - BBA (5-6-1)
#3 Seed - PGL (5-7-0)
#4 Seed - FUD (4-7-1)
#5 Seed - HUR (4-8-0)
#6 Seed - MNY (2-10-0) Guaranteed #6 Seed

With ties at the 5 and 4 Win levels…the Empire Cup seedings are pretty cut and dry right now…a 7-Win Warriors team missing the Playoffs would make them the #1 Seed…otherwise a 6½ Win Bubba Army missing the Playoffs would take the top slot…Losses by RNT and BBA would let Throser hold the #1 Seed with a Head-2-Head win over Playground Legends in Week 4 breaking any tie at 6 Wins…and would push BBA down to no better than the #4 Seed with tie break losses to FUD…a Hurricanes win with a Playground Legends loss would create a (5-8-0) tie…Hurricanes beat Legends 107-72 in Week 8 and would take the #4 Seed and a Home Game for Wildcard Weekend…

Good Luck Everyone
