FAQ

Does the league table decide playoff seeds?

No. Playoff spots and seeds come from the division standings; the league table is a comparison only.

Why are West teams often higher in the league table?

The West has five teams and plays more games against each other, so points can bunch; the crossover rule exists to reward a strong fourth-place western team.

What is point differential?

Points for minus points against. It is a key tiebreaker and a good indicator of team strength beyond the record.

How many points can a team earn in a season?

A maximum of 36 points from 18 games.

Where is each team's full schedule?

Click any team name in the table to open its schedule, results and next game.

The league table is a quick way to compare all nine teams, but remember playoff spots are still awarded by division.
