The Tie-Breakers

20-6A uses head-to-head as the preferred tie-breaker. If head-to-head is tied, then a positive only point differential is used (capped at 18 points). If that is tied, then a coin flip is used. Each tie-breaker is used only to determine the next team in line meaning that if there is a 3-way tie for 2^nd involving use of tiebreakers, then the tiebreakers are used to first determined 2^nd place then everything is reset and 3^rd place is determine and repeat the process until all four playoff teams are determined.

Scenarios That Matter

Clements beats Dulles on Saturday – Clements is the fourth team.

Dulles beats Clements on Saturday AND Bush beats Travis Friday – Dulles is the fourth team.

Travis beats Bush on Friday and Dulles beats Clements by 6 points or less on Saturday – Travis is the fourth team.

Travis beats Bush on Friday and Dulles beats Clements by 7 points or more on Saturday – Dulles is the fourth team.
