It'd be fun to be able to do this in OOTP. Personally, I think that the NBA should adopt a similar system with three different splits, but that's probably a topic for another day.
I've not looked at what European football does in a long time in regards to playoff formats.

The SPL system isn't really a playoff format, it's an adjusted/flexible regular season schedule format. I've had a few simple ideas for additions to OOTP's regular season schedule file structure, but to accommodate the SPL format would require additions beyond those. I'd have to think about it, but it should be possible to do an SPL-style season with the right changes — and if Markus and crew decided to implement them.
