Week 10 Football 6-Man Playoff Projections
What I have decided to do is post my Playoff Projections using this week’s RPI posted here: http://chsaanow.com/rpi/football/ . I will then use the seeding Criteria and seed my 6-Man playoffs like I have done since the first RPI came out. I am not going to be able to finish 6-Man weekly breakdown in time so if anybody wants to know possibly what their RPI could be feel free to message me and I can quickly run down a scenario for a team.
Playoffs (Straight from Chsaanow.com): The Top 16 teams in the Classification based on the final RPI rankings will be placed into the post-season bracket. If a conference champion is not ranked in the Top 16 based on RPI rankings, they will replace the lowest ranked team that is not a conference champion in the Top 16.
Seeding Criteria (once qualifiers are determined)
- Seeding numbers 1-8 will be seeded according to the final RPI standings and will be the home teams in Round 1. Teams that are seeded numbered 9-16 will be seeded using RPI and geography. When possible, conference opponents will not be paired against one another in the first round.
- Conference champions not ranked in the top 16 of the final RPI will be placed in the bracket but conference champions are not guaranteed a Top-8 seed.
