With 1 game to go, things are fairly clear in the playoff picture.

1 seed - with a win against 5-10 Texas, the Inmates from FantasyFootball.com clinch home field advantage throughout.

2 seed - A win by Rocky Mountain over 8-7 Melbourne and they get the second seed. A loss to Melbourne and a win by Tongan over 5-10 Hawaii, and Tongan gets the 2 seed as they hold the tie-breaker.

3 seed - A win by Tongan assures them at least the 3 seed. A loss to 5-10 Hawaii, then Tortuga can claim the 3 seed with a win over 6-9 Baha since they hold the tie-breaker over Tonga. A loss by Tonga, a win by Tortuga and a win by Samoa over 0-15 Pacific, then the three way tie at 12-4 would result in Tortuga claiming the 3 slot as they beat both Tonga and Samoa. A loss by Tonga and a loss by Tortuga, gives Tonga the 3 seed as they have the tie-breaker over Samoa.

4 seed - If Tonga loses their last game and Tortuga wins theirs, Tonga will claim the 4 seed as they would have the tie-breaker over Samoa. If Tortuga loses their last game, Samoa claims the 4 seed with a win as Tonga would claim the 3 seed.

5 seed - Samoa looks destined to miss out on a home playoff game as they own none of the tie-breakers needed. If Tortuga loses to 6-9 Baha, then Samoa can claim the 4 seed (leaving Tortuga the 5 seed) as they play the winless CPU team.

6 seed - Hamilton claims the 6 seed with a win over CPU controlled Washington. If for some odd reason the CPU wins (and that would be one major upset), then Hamilton would lose the tie-breaker to Gold Coast. Gold Coast faces the 1-14 CPU controlled Pittsburgh. I am calling it now, Hamilton is the 6 seed.

7 seed - Gold Coast claims no worse than the 7 seed with a win (and I see no way for them to lose). Gold Coast holds the tie-breaker over Melbourne.

8 seed - Melbourne faces 13-2 Rocky Mountain but it doesn't matter. A win only locks the 8 seed as they lose the tie-breaker to Gold Coast (who won't be losing). If Melbourne loses, they could be tied with Dunder Mifflen (if they win), who faces 3-12 Talon Bay. Melbourne holds the tie-breaker there.



So, the way I see it, based upon expected results, this will be the playoffs for Season 6:

1 - FF.com
2 - Rocky Mountain
3 - Tonga
4 - Tortuga
5 - Samoa
6 - Hamilton
7 - Gold Coast
8 - Melbourne

Nice work tishi!

So it looks like Tonga will host Hamilton then most likely have to face FF.Com in round 2. Ouch.

Actually, I believe Tonga as the 3 seed would play Hamilton and the winner would face the winner of the Rocky Mountain/Gold Coast matchup in the second round.

The 4/5 game winner should play the 1/8 winner.

This is true. Tonga beating Rocky Mountain killed Tortuga's hopes of a 3 seed IMO.

Ahhh... excellent. If we get through Hamilton, we are likely going for the rematch vs Rocky Mountain. Damn I am looking forward to that!
