Week 12

Hey all,

The last week of the regular season came and went for the UMFL. It was a week that ended up with your commissioner using tie-breakers to settle a tie for the last wild card spot in the National Conference and using a tie breaker to settle the four-way tie for the two wild card spots in the American Conference, but first here's last week's scores...

T3SNBN 85- Avalon Aces 79

Huachuca Chukars 98- Tax Dodgers 76

Quite Smashing Pumpkins 82- HB Footbalers 65

Camnoga Lakes Capitialists 90- The J Team 65

Radisson Rebels 72- Little Flowers of Jesus 48

Thunder Mountain Lightning 65- Grape Stompers 53

Rancho Eagle 71- Creek Trail Burros 68

Mighty Birnkrant Moose 90- The Huntresses 59

Rex's Team 70- Tubby Corgis 56

Now the easy part, the division champions:

American Conference

Western Division Champs- T3SNBN (7-4-1)

Northern Division Champs- Canoga Lakes Capitalists (8-4)

National Conference

Southern Division Champs- Little Flowers of Jesus (9-3)

Eastern Division Champs- Mighty Birnkrant Moose (8-4)

American Conference WIld Card Tie-Breaker

This was a tough one to figure out as there were four teams with 7-5 records vying for the two wild card spots. So, I went to the first tie-breaker which is head-to-head record. All four teams did not play each other, so that tie-breaker became unusable. So, that leaves me with divisonal record next as a tie-breaker. Now with the four teams playing a different number of conference games, I used conference winning percentage as the tie-breaker. Here's the results...

HB Footballers: 7-5 overall, 4-2 in divisional play for a .666 winning percentage

Tax Dodgers: 7-5 overall, 5-3 in divisional play for a .625 winning percentage.

Quite SP: 7-5 overall, 3-3 in divisional play for a .500 winning percentage

Avalon Aces : 7-5 overall, 3-5 in divisional play for a .375 winning percentage.

Wild Cards: American Conference

HB Footballers (7-5)

Tax Dodgers (7-5)

National Conference Wild Card Tie Breaker:

The Rancho Eagles got the nod for the second wild card spot over the Creek Trail Buuros because they swept the Creek Trail Burros in head-to-head competition.

Wild Cards: National Conference

Thunder Mountain Lightning (8-4)

Rancho Eagles (6-6)

There's a game on Thursday folks, so all the playoff teams need to get me their starting lineups by Thursday afternoon at 5:00 PM

Hope everyone has a great week!

-The Commissioner
