Below is the 108th Grey Cup playoff scenario for Week 11:

WEST DIVISION

  • Winnipeg WIN = Winnipeg clinches a playoff spot

EAST DIVISION

  • No team can clinch a playoff spot this week

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.
