WEST DIVISION | DIVISION OUEST Western Playoff Scenarios

Partly did this just for the hilarity of the WPG/SSK/CGY colour split. But hey, hopefully this helps. (you will note the road team is first in every result column, so I'm not as biased as i look ;) )

Must be nice to be in a scenario.

You’re in your own very unique scenario, very special and nobody can possibly join you this year.

I mean if we honk it, you get two top 3 picks, that's worth something? lol

Top draft picks in the CFL don’t really have the same ring as they would in the NFL. Taking a gamble now in a guy since we don’t know about NFL interests with the draft happening before theirs.

I mean I'll take 3rd overall back if you don't want it ;)

Teams resting guys might be a huge factor in what teams make it.

If Edmonton beats Winnipeg in that first game, there isn't a single other game on this where the second team will have something to play for.

Does BC rest against Calgary or Winnipeg? Or both?

What about Edmonton and Montreal?

If Winnipeg wins out, BC loses out, and Winnipeg beats BC by enough points, would Winnipeg not hold the tie break and move into 2nd?

Aye, i tried to add that in the tiebreak notes so the spreadsheet wouldn't be another 30 rows...

Sask is 4th in a three way tie 😉

WPG 3-2
SSK 2-2
CGY 2-3

You have them as 5th

And no it doesn’t reset after one team is decided

Interesting that only 3 scenarios that Winnipeg don't make the playoffs, while even Heneoc Muamba was saying he still thinks WPG is the one not making it.

Think that comes down to who plays who when... you guys get the Als with nothing to play for, then the Elks quite likely with nothing to play for, both in Regina. We go to Edmonton with them trying to clinch 1st, then quite possibly to BC with them trying to clinch 2nd... and our escape hatch is the Stamps losing their one chance at home. Honestly I don't think we're any better then 5050.

I choose to believe big play VA is gonna stomp BC so hard next weekend that Rourke will be too discouraged to play and we rout BC on our way to hosting the west semi so I get to visit my holy land one more time this year

We are going to make Rourke cry and leave to be an NFL pre-season sensation for the second time.
