05/13 : Wolves win by forfeit over WTF 21-0

Wolves improve to 4-1 on the season, while WTF drops to 1-5.

This was the first meeting between these two teams.

Next up for Wolves is Blackwarfare (3-2). That game is scheduled for May 13 2012, 09:00 at GMU Rec Field 4.

;	I will present this to my coach for at the next coaches meeting, but I think that in the case of a forfeit the winning team (provided they have a + point differential) should get the score reflecting their point diff. Example, if you have a +17 point diff, a forfeit would get recorded as 17-0. That make sense?

;	So the point differential between the two teams, assuming the winning team has higher PD? Interesting, bring it up at the coaches meeting.

;	No, I think what he is saying is that the team that wins by forfeit would win by their APD alone. Not taking into account the APD b/t the two teams.

;	and what do you do if there is a forfeit the first week...win by 0...come on people, stick with the 21 or go back to the 14...next we`ll hear proposals of a skills comp to determine points...if the wolves kicker can hit a 50+ yrd FG they get an additional 14 haha

;	Yes, that is how it should be. A number as a minimum should be agreed on, say 14 if the pd is lower than that or negative. The reason I suggested it is because playoff seeding if a tie goes to pd. If you beat your opponents by an average of 27 a game, and you get a forfeit that is only 21-0, it could lead to a team getting leapfrogged in the standings due to a game they had no hand in the outcome.
