[size=2]American Conference, West Division Standings: Breaking ties[/size]
[b]Tied at standings order 3: OMA and NAS[/b]
Comparing by head-to-head record... still tied.
Comparing by division record...
OMA has a conference record of 4-2-0 (.667), moved to standings order 2
[i]Omaha has a better conference record, so they move to position 2 in the West Division ahead of Nashville.[/i]
[size=2]Draft Order: Breaking Ties[/size]
[b]Tied at standings order 11: OMA and NAS[/b]
Comparing by head-to-head record... still tied.
Comparing by total net points...
NAS has -58 total net points, moved to standings order 10
[i]Nashville has a better net point record so they move the seventh pick in the draft and Omaha gets 6th.[/i]
Now it seems to me that if Omaha finishes higher in the standings then they should not have a better draft pick. I am sure that this is an issue of two different tiebreakers that do not talk. Still, it seems counter intuitive.

I think this situation is possible in the NFL too. Any time different tiebreaking rules are applied for different things there is a chance that the two methods are going to go in different directions.Chris
