109TH GREY CUP PLAYOFF SCENARIOS – WEEK 13
Blue Bombers look to punch their ticket into the Grey Cup playoffs
TORONTO (August 30, 2022) – Below are the 109th Grey Cup playoff scenarios for Week 13:
WEST DIVISION
- Winnipeg WIN = Winnipeg clinches a playoff spot
- Winnipeg LOSS and a Hamilton LOSS and an Ottawa LOSS and an Edmonton LOSS = Winnipeg clinches a playoff spot
EAST DIVISION
- No team can clinch a playoff spot this week
NOTES:
- Winnipeg is looking to clinch a playoff berth for the sixth consecutive year
- In 2021 Winnipeg clinched a playoff spot in their 10th game; however it was based on a 14-game season
- With the return of an 18-game season, additional playoff qualifications are weeks away due to the competitive nature of Week 12 standings (five teams within three wins of one another)
CROSSOVER RULE
If the fourth-place team in division A – A4 – has more points than the third-place team in division B – B3 (they cannot be tied), A4 will cross over and take the place of B3 in terms of playoff seeding. A4 will then compete against B2 in the division B semi-final.
