VFA Conference Playoff Outlook

  • Stevens Point, Wausau West and Hortonville are in
  • Marshfield and D.C. Everest need in a win in either of their final two games. Without a win in either game, they could qualify on playoff criteria but that remains in doubt
  • Marshfield faces SPASH and Hortonville, the top two teams in the VFA
  • Everest has its best chance in Week 8, against 1-4(2-5 overall) Wausau East, before facing Wausau West in Week 9
  • Wausau East has a slim chance to gain a playoff but must win their final two games and then with a 4-5 overall record and 3-4 conference record, could slip in

Playoff Chances

  • Stevens Point, Wausau West and Hortonville, 100%
  • Marshfield 47%
  • D.C.Everest 79%
  • Wausau East 12%(AND has to hope playoff tiebreaking criteria fall in their favor, a tall task)
