As i'm looking at the matchups, it's not looking very good for underdogs. Here's a look at what we have coming up in the first round...

In the western conference..

#1 NBA vs #8 Colorado Springs- NBA is the clear favorite at this point to win the conference and having beaten Colorado Springs 204-0, it's not looking good for the Flyers.

#4 Malibu vs #5 Lafayette- The 4-5 matchup will almost always be your best bet at an upset, this season though Malibu defeated Lafayette in the regular season 44-10 so it will be an uphill battle for the Mudbugs. If Malibu takes this game lightly and Lafayette can put together a brilliant gameplan though they might just have a shot at it.

#2 Bunghole vs #7 Baby- Again this one is really going to be tough for the underdog having lost earlier in the season 115-6, the Giants seem to be a little outgunned in this one.

#3 San Diego vs #6 Chicago- San Diego won their earlier contest 66-20, but Chicago has been an up and down team all season, they have won games that they probably shouldn't have won and lost a few that you'd think they could have won. Chicago has a chance to make this a closer contest than the first game if they fix some holes in their previous gameplan, but in the end I fear the Cyberballers' defense will just be a bit too stiff for them to pull it out.

And in the Eastern Conference...

#1 Fredricksburg vs #8 Pensacola- Fredricksburg is just too much for Pensacola to overcome, the Cavaliers won their first contest 101-6

#4 Ft. Sam vs #5 Richmond- This is probably the most evenly matched game in the first round. Ft. Sam won their first game 45-28, but Richmond has the ability to spring the upset if a few bounces go their way.

#2 Madison vs #7 Orlando- Madison won their first meeting 87-16 and it's hard to imagine the Knights coming up with a plan to beat them. Like the San Diego/Chicago game in the western conference, I believe Orlando can make this a closer game than their first game but I can't see them doing enough to pull out a victory.

#3 West Lawn vs #6 Cincinnati- West Lawn won the first game 75-13 and I expect them to pull out another win this time around. Cincinnati is simply overmatched in this one, but I full expect them to be a game opponent and try to make a game out of it.

After this round there would be a higher chance for an upset I believe. The two possible #2 vs #3 games are the most likely possibilities for an upset next round while NBA and Fredricksburg should be able to sail through as long as they take their games seriously. I don't want to get too far ahead of myself though, we'll just take it one round at a time. Good luck to all of the underdogs, and the not so underdogs!

actually Richmond won our first matchup, but I agree this game is pretty closely matched

Who takes dots serious. Basic tactics, 0 scouting, and minimal effort is all thats needed.

Haha you're right, I must've been one team's page thinking I was on the other lol. But yea, either way I think you guys are evenly matched enough that no matter the outcome of that game it has the potential to go either way.

As for who takes dots seriously, Fujicrow does. He eats, sleeps and poops dots. Fujicrow's first marriage ended because his wife was jealous over his relationship with his dots.

as the OC for the Cavaliers...i take every game as if they have every chance to wipe my offense off the face of the earth. no defense goes unstudied or undertaken. every game planner is very capable of taking out someone else. that's how much i respect each and every game planner here in this league, and i know our path is just going to get that much harder. and i wish the best to all during these sleepless nights.

also fujicrow...i feel your pain about the whole wife vs. dots thing...my wife also hates these dots (yet she owns a team..go figure..lol)

Cincinnati has the upset of the day with a 1 point victory over West Lawn. They won it on a 1 yard TD pass at the goaline with 39 seconds left in the game. Awesome game by both teams, but a HUGE victory for Cincinnati. Grats guys.

No one was more surprised then me at our 31-30 victory after losing regular season 75-13.... I thought we could do a lot better, but I was thinking a 20 pt loss rather than a 62 pt loss this time...

Ill take it thats for sure...... hope we have another one in us....

No upsets today, higher seed one every game. So we have NBA vs Bunghole in the west and Fredricksburg vs Madison in the east.
