Does anyone know of a program that will run what needs to happen for teams to make the playoffs? 12 team league and two divisions. Division winners make the playoffs plus the two next best teams regardless of division. Total points is a tiebreaker over head-to-head.

Currently have 4 teams @ 7-5, 4 teams @ 6-6, and the weakest team at 8-4. Five of the teams are within 30 points of each other so it is anybody's game.

I'm not talking about projections. I don't pay attention to that. I'm talking about what needs to happen for each team to make it.

Is it really that difficult to figure out? Should take all of 5 minutes by looking at standings/points/matchups, etc.

Yes. It is. So many teams need multiple people to win or lose by various points to make it. There are if/thens all over the place. It is nuts.

In same situation. 4 teams are 6-6 and one 5-7. All competing for final 2 playoff spots. This is calculus.

Not really. I have the most points scored of the 7-5 teams. Everybody wants to know before kickoff for maximum drama.
