2025 Season, Episode 6 - Playoff Possibilities and Elim Charts

Hello, today I will be talking about what I believe the playoff format for the 2025 USL League 2 season will be. I will also be going over some formats of the past to help guide my belief, some takes on what I want vs what I think will happen, and why I believe those. I will also be going over Elimination Charts, something of my own design that rather than show how close a team is to securing playoffs, shows how close a team is being eliminated. Due to the fact that less than 30% of teams make playoffs, it can come down to the absolute wire. So, at times it was easier to see who was eliminated than already in. Here is a link to Elimination Charts for the Men’s side of the Amateur leagues https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1II_PDABp0L20UaQPpEwDqGgc7qfQnv2_pLI2sgkHqa0/edit?usp=sharing. I will be updating this hopefully once a week in order to try and allow fans to keep up with their team’s playoff push throughout the season.
