wait, im confused. If Cleveland has the better record, why do they have to face Tampa for the qualifier game? Shouldn't the two 91 win team, tampa and texas, play each other AND THEN the winner plays Cleveland?
I'm confused too but after reading more into this, its the winner of the qualifying round.
Texas vs. Tampa
Winner plays Cleveland.
At first I thought the loser has to play Texas but now it makes sense. Originally it was Cleveland vs. Tampa with the loser playing Texas.
