14-team management

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

14-team management

Postby mgregoirec » Thu Aug 03, 2023 1:43 am

We added two friends in what’s now a 14-team league.

Last year we had 8-teams playoffs with a 4-team losers championship.

This year the proposed seeding would still be an 8-teams playoffs, but I was wondering what format do you guys use in a 14-team league?

Thanks!

The 14tm leagues I'm in all have 6 teams make the playoffs, with the top two seeds receiving a first-round bye. The other 8 teams participate in a losers' playoff.

Some of my 14tm leagues have divisions of 5-5-4. One league has no divisions.

In both my 12 and 14 team leagues only 6 makes the playoffs. I think this is good. Gives the top 2 something of value (a bye).

My ideal format for 14 team: top 6 make playoffs, top two get first round bye. Other 4 playoff teams play a one week all play, with top 2 scorers moving on. Then the remaining four teams play a two week all play.

The bottom 8 teams that don't make the playoffs play a three week toilet bowl for some type of prize.

I do not play in any 14 teamers, sorry I can not help here. My two 12 team leagues have 1-8 seeding for the money bracket.

i like play each team once and play one random team a 2nd time and then top 4 by record get in and then the next 2 by all play get in. i dont think over half the league should make playoffs but its not the worst either

Thanks all. I don’t hate the fact that 6 teams make playoffs, but last 6-7 years we were 12 and 8 made playoffs so I think that adding 2 teams overall and also removing 2 from playoffs will be hard to accept for many.

I’ll ask the league and tell you guys!

I think it's fine to do whatever the league feels good about. But I think a compromise that would work well would be to have all 8 playoff teams go to an all play, and have the top 4.scorers move on. That way the top season long winner doesn't get bumped out I'm the first round as easily.

In both of my 14 teams leagues, 6 teams make playoffs. In one, it's top 5 records with the final playoff spot going to most points for the regular season. The other is strictly top 6 by record, with tie-breakers as needed.
In the league with the 6th playoff by points for, we play each other team once and week 14 is an all-play, top 7 scores get a win.
