----My league is 12 teams, set up in 2 divisions. Two division winners and two wildcards make the playoffs. I currently have two teams that have the same record and have played each other head to head one time. The winner of the head to head is currently seeded BELOW the guy that he beat even though they have the same record. I don't understand why he doesn't hold the tiebreaker. Does that statement that is in the red color above make any sense to anyone? All along I have told everyone in the league that H2H determines tiebreakers, but ESPN's rules are seriously confusing me. Please advise
