2 more questions about a fictional league

Hey guys, in my fictional dynasty, I have a league created that has 16 teams. 1 league, 4 divisions of 4 teams each. What I want to do for the playoffs is have 8 teams. 4 division winners, and 4 wildcards. I want the division winners to automatically be the top 4 seeds based on record, and the 4 wildcards to be the bottom 4 seeds. I've seen too many times while playing this game that a wildcard team is seeded higher than a division winner because the wildcard has a better record. Is this fixable?

Second question, in my 16 team league, I put schedules to unbalanced. I figured the majority of my games would be against the other 3 teams in my division. When I checked the schedule, I am playing 16 games against 7 teams, and only 4 games each against the other 8 teams, for a 144 game schedule. How does this work? I could understand this setup if I had 2 leagues, but it is only 1 league of 4 divisions. I figured I would have more games against my 3 division opponents than any other team. Thanks for the help guys.
