111th Grey Cup Playoff Scenarios - Week 17
Published on September 24, 2024 under Canadian Football League (CFL) News Release
TORONTO - The following scenarios are in play this week.
EAST DIVISION
MTL WIN or OTT LOSS = Montreal claims East Division title; earns the right to host the Eastern Final at Percival Molson Memorial Stadium on Saturday, November 9 at 3 p.m. ET
OTT WIN = OTT clinches postseason berth
HAM LOSS and EDM LOSS = OTT clinches postseason berth
Eliminates the possibility of OTT being impacted by a West to East crossover
WEST DIVISION
WPG WIN = WPG clinches postseason berth
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.
PLAYOFF PICTURE
In Week 13, Montreal clinched a playoff berth for a fifth straight season.
