6-Man Football Playoff Projections Week 5

6-Man Football Playoff Projections Week 5

This year to reach the playoffs is simple. Either win your league title or be inside the top 16 of the CHSAA Seeding Index. After they select the 16 teams that make the playoffs, they use the CHSAA Seeding Index to seed the playoffs. This week I will be giving my predictions on who makes the playoffs, but I will also look at if the season ended today who would make the playoffs at the end. These are very early projections and expect big changes week to week. We will update our league predictions next week along with our projections. Good Luck to all teams!

Playoff Projections & Predictions

6-Man Playoff Predictions (Who I think make the playoffs)

This is who I think make the playoffs and who win the leagues. In the 6-Man ranks all league champions are guaranteed a berth. The rest will be selected by CHSAA Seeding Index. Seeding is determined by CHSAA Seeding Index. I am picking my 11 At-Large teams via non-league schedules, remaining schedules, and how I think teams will do. League Champions is posted first then the At-Large Teams.
