REV are writers of their own destiny. But they play the current other two top teams. Easy, win out and #1. Lose both, 3 seed. Split and it is complicated. Beat Dixie and lose to Shock = #2 assuming Shock beat Stealth. Lose to Dixie and beat Shock, could be 3 way tie again assuming Shock beat Stealth.
Shock is the same way. Win out and they are #1. Worse case, they can be #3 if they lose both. Split and it will go head to head which they have an advantage over Dixie (beating them twice) but need to beat the REV to even that series up.
Dixie can be #1 if the win and the REV beat the Shock and the Shock lose to the Stealth. If they win and the Shock beat the REV next week. Shock will be 1, Dixie 2, REV 3.
Stealth can be no better than 4. If the Stealth beat the Shock they are in. If they beat the Mudd Ducks they are in . If the lose to the Mudd Ducks, they can still be in depending on points allowed. Currently, the Stealth have allowed 149 less points than the Mudd Ducks. The Mudd Ducks have played one more game though.
Here's how it could play out with home teams listed first:
#1 Shock/REV winner vs #4 Stealth #2 Shock/REV loser vs #3 Dixie

#1 will be Generals with a win. Matadors can be #1 with a win and allowing less than 30 points. Brigham can be #1 with a win, a General loss and Matadors allowing 31 more than Sting. Cobras can be #1 with win, General loss and Matadors allowing 33 more points than Cobras allow. Great Falls can be #1 with win, General loss, Matadors allowing 44 more points than Gladiators allow, Sting allowing 14 more and Cobras allowing 11 more. Bullets can with a win, General loss, Matadors allowing 48+, Sting allowing 18+, Cobras allowing 15+ or GF allowing 4+.
#2 will be Cobras/Sting winner or GF if the Sting/Cobra winner allows more than GF has allowed (14/11) or Billings if GF, and Sting/Cobra winner allow more than Bullets (4/18/15). And that is if GF and Billings win.
#3 Will be the last division winner whether it be Sting/Cobras/Gladiators/Bullets. It will be the Division winner who allowed the most points.
#4 Will be the second team from Idaho. Generals with a loss, Matadors with a loss and allowing less than 49, Arco with a win and the Matadors allow 50 more than Arco allows.
#5 Can be Billings or GF if both win and whoever allowed the most throughout the year. If one of them lose, Arco, Matadors or Sting/Cobras loser can be here with less points allowed than second team out of Montana.
#6 Could be a lot of teams. Arco, Matadors, Sting, Cobras, Gladiators or Bullets, whoever allowed the most.
#7 Odd team out of one’s listed above if they allow less than Bulldawgs have allowed.
#8 Bulldawgs unless a lot of teams allow 45+.
But we have it set up so that Utah won’t go to Montana in the first round and vice versa, so here is what the playoffs will look like in my opinion. Host teams listed first #1 Generals vs #6/#7 Sting/Cobra loser #4 Matadors vs #5 GF/Billings (whoever allows more points this weekend) #2 GF/Bilings (whoever allows less) or Sting/Cobra winner vs #8 Bulldawgs #3 GF/Billings/Sting/Cobras vs #6 /#7Arco
