Playoff Qualifiers

Post by danimal10 » Tue Sep 30, 2008 3:39 am

I was thinking that top 50 in overall points qualified for the playoffs regardless of record and/or league standing, is that correct or am I thinking of something else?

Thanks,

D Top 10% of total number of teams in each contest are guaranteed a spot in the Championship Round. That means the Top 31 teams in the NFFC Classic (out of 308 teams) and the Top 25 teams in the NFFC Primetime (out of 252 teams). But top 2 teams in each league are also guaranteed a spot in the playoffs and we have 22 NFFC Classic leagues and 21 NFFC Primetime leagues. Should be a fun sprint to the finish line.

Greg and Gordon,

Thanks for clarifying, I was looking in the rules and didn't see that specific language, I probably just missed it.

Of course we (UFFL All Stars & The Vulgarians) are planning on winning the league like we did last year, but always nice to know the alternatives ;)

I believe the top 10% will very likely include many of the teams that make the big show by vertue of being one of the top 2 teams in their league. I do not believe we are adding all of the top two league winners PLUS 10% of the rest of the pack. Is this correct?

Pete,

That is correct. There will probably be 6-10 teams that qualify for the playoffs by being in the top 10% in total points but not finishing first or second in their leagues.
