Can this game handle a 70 team playoff ?

The previous game(OOTP18) has had it's problems keeping what was supposed to be the play off match ups(starting with the first round) which just about ruins the entire playoffs.

My set up:
2 Worlds
240 plus teams per League
4 Leagues(2 Major Leagues 2 Triple A Leagues)
3 out of the 4 Leagues have conferences
1 of the Triple A Leagues doesn't have conferences

Playoff set up :Opening Round
Bottom 6 teams from both conferences play(League with no conferences plays the bottom 12 teams)
Second Round:
29 teams that received first round bye plus three winners from Round One

First Round 6 teams per conference(12 teams with no conferences)
Second Round 32 teams per conference(64 teams with no conferences)
Third Round 16 teams per conference(32 teams with no conferences)
Forth Round 8 teams per conference(16 teams with no conferences)
Fifth Round 4 teams per conference(8 teams with no conferences)
Sixth Round conference championship series(4 teams with no conferences)
Seventh Round League championship series(2 teams with no conferences)

This set up has worked in the past but for some reason everything is scrambled(some teams missing from playoffs).

Always amazes me the size of league that some people go with. Pretty sure my computer would die trying to sim that league.

As for what's supported... maybe? Of course, I don't exactly see why it wouldn't have worked in OOTP 18. I know we essentially have a cap on number of divisions per subleague at 50, but I don't see anything specific that should prevent this setup. If it doesn't work, let us know and we can look more into it
