Playoff Rules

All six teams will advance into the playoffs. The top two teams from the regular season will have a first round bye, with the rest of the bracket set up like this:

Top Half
Seed #1 (Bye)
Seed #4 vs. Seed #5

Bottom Half
Seed #2 (Bye)
Seed #3 vs. Seed #6

In the event of a tie, here are the tiebreakers. I wanted to put point differential last to avoid people running up the score. Team ratings have been put in to help balance the odds for people using lower ranked teams.
  1. Head to head records
  2. Team rating (Lower ratings winning the tiebreak)
  3. Point differential.
Did I mention that I'm putting in a $10 buy in? Playoff winner takes all.
