Well we know that common games or net points comes before conference record in division tiebreakers since Portland moves on. I think it's actually net points as it was explained to me in the now defunct World League or whatever CJ's league was called.

12 of the 14 playoff teams were also in the playoffs last season. This year, Memphis replaces Oakland while New Jersey replaces Philadelphia. Memphis and New Jersey were last in the playoffs following the 2006 season.

We have 2 rematches from last year's wildcard round. Oklahoma once again visits Chicago Wildcard Weekend where they won 28-13 last season. San Jose hosts Houston again, where they won 38-0 last year.

We also have a divisional game Wildcard Weekend as Orlando is at Jacksonville. The Bulls swept the Renegades in the regular season, can Jacksonville make it 3?

Speaking of Jacksonville, they are 1 of 2 teams in the playoffs that have never reached a World Bowl, with New York being the other. Additionally, 4 teams seek their first World Bowl win after losing in their previous, and only trip...San Antonio, Chicago, Birmingham, and Orlando.
