I have a 15 team league in 3 divisions. Weeks I would like to have the playoffs for the division winners plus 3 wild card winners. Does anyone have a 15 team schedule that can be used? I'm looking to have only one bye per week, and double headers don't seem like it'd be possible since this is an ESPN league. If anyone could give me a hand with this I'd be greatly appreciative.

Whoops threw in an extra word there! Heh... Eliminate the "Weeks" in there.

I'd start by looking at
http://schedules.footballguys.com/index.php?teams=15 and see if anything there floats your boat.

With 15 teams, you pretty much have to go 15 regular season weeks to have everyone with a same number of games with no doubleheaders -- which means a 2 week playoffs including week 17.

If you want 6 playoff teams, you may need to figure out a way to condense 6 teams to 2. I'd suggest maybe letting #1 pick their two opponents (excluding #2) for week 16, and #2 has to play the other two. Or if you don't like that complexity, have

#1 vs. #4 vs. #6, and
#2 vs. #3 vs. #5

in week 16, with the pool winners playing in week 17.

Or just go to a 4 team playoff, with #1 playing the wild card team. That's probably easier. Either way though, you're going to have to have a week 17 final.

Thanks D.

I kind of like the 1 and 2 picks their opponents, but I don't know how well that would work. I'm really thinking of doing the 1 wild card with the 3 divisional winners.
