1. Defenders of the Ancients vs 8. Atlantic City Affliction http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1530&team2=5950

A recap of their last meeting:
Very equal matchup the first time around and if you took away those two interceptions, it may not have been a win by the Ancients. A tough battle in the first quarter with ACA barely able to do anything at all; DotA shut down their run game and got their first pick of the game, but only 7 points were put up on the scoreboard.

DotA started off the second quarter with a FG, but then it was all ACA all day as they passed well; however, came up short three of their four drives and could only put up FGs.

The third quarter was an all out defensive battle and by the time ACA finally got the ball moving and looked for pay dirt, they fumbled the ball on the Ancient’s 5 yard line.

That was all she wrote for ACA as they were nonexistent in the fourth quarter and DotA was able to put up another 10 points and seal the victory.

Defenders of the Ancients 20 over Atlantic City Affliction 9

Jon’s take on the game:
The Affliction is a solid team that can run with the best of them, but the Ancients are the future of the East. They’re only getting stronger as time goes on and they’re ready for the challenge ACA can bring. It should be a hard fought match as I see ACA come out strong and give them a good game, but just not live up to the hype; however, come back strong in the second half.

Defenders of the Ancients win 38-27

4. Grand Haven Mist vs 5. Seattle Renegades http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1222&team2=1153

A recap of their last meeting:
Jesus man where to go with this recap????

Seattle 648 total yards vs Grand Haven 267.5 total yards.

Seattle 2 turnovers vs Grand Haven 1 turnover

Score: Grand Haven 45 over Seattle 42

Seattle just couldn't buy a break, they ran, they passed, they scored TDs, but still couldn't pull it off. Did anyone ever mention Grand Haven has a decent Special Team? 1/3 of the game is Special Teams, right?

Kickoff by Chris Hetland, 61 yd, fielded by Adair Sunshine [TD] (91.5 yd return); Extra point attempted by Anton Lubchencko, made [XP]
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1211845&pbp_id=4189504

Kickoff by Chris Hetland, 68 yd, fielded by Adair Sunshine [TD] (98 yd return); Extra point attempted by Anton Lubchencko, made [XP]
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1211845&pbp_id=4193413

Kickoff by Anton Lubchencko, 68 yd, fielded by Henry Rattlinton[Monster Hit forced fumble: Marcus Witherspooon], fumbled , recovered by Eyes On You [missed tackle: Henry Rattlinton] [TD] (27.5 yd return); Extra point attempted by Anton Lubchencko, made [XP]
http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1211845&pbp_id=4193528

Jon’s take on the game:
Was this the game Killer_Elite went MIA and Seattle took a weird downhill turn? I can't remember, but I'll bet he had a rematch circled on his to do list. I'll bet after he saw who his first round matchup was he got all excited and has been game planning for vengeance! I have great respect for the Mist, but looking at the numbers I just can't see Seattle making the same mistakes and they have something to prove out there.

Seattle Renegades win 28-23

2. Louisville Baby Kittens vs 7. Mentone Beach Assault http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1494&team2=1178

A recap of their last meeting:
Houston to Assault come in...

Assault here, go ahead...

Ah Assault, it's time to come back down to earth.

The Assault were on a 5-0 tear at the time of the Kittens and apparently Kittens should lead the Assault! A truly hard fought battle that I cannot bring myself to relive; all that I can recall from this game is how my heart sank from this one play:

http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1211803&pbp_id=7132101 no tie for me, no glory for the offense...

Jon’s take on the game:
The Kittens brought the Assault back down to earth they showed the Assault were not as mighty as they appeared to be, but it was much later that the Assault's age finally caught up with them and they began to fall quickly. As lowly as they have become, I have faith in this once great team.

Mentone Beach Assault win 45-40

3. South Otto Fragile Porcelain Mice vs 6. Humboldt Killer Hornets http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1288&team2=3421

A recap of their last meeting:
I'm not lying the Mist have a great Special Teams and they can tear up any team not prepared for them. What you have a 24 point lead on them? No it's not enough, their Special Teams will come back on you and put up 17 before you can even respond. Punt returns for a TD, kick returns for a TD, you're not safe around these guys! Ahh crap I said Mist, I was confused because the Hornets' Special Teams lite up the Mice last time these guys faced off.

Including a big strike to the heart of the Mice with this wide open TE http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1211826&pbp_id=5661179

Of course the downside of all that was the Hornets couldn't do anything at all on offense, 197 yards on offense with a massive 11.5 rushing yards as the Mice held on to the ball for a whopping 42:21 minutes of the game.

Jon’s take on the game:
Point of fact, the Mice owned that game and the Hornets caught a lot of breaks; I don't see that happening again.

South Otto Fragile Porcelain Mice win 40-10

Don't sweat it...we held him in check without even trying. Oh wait...they only threw 21 times. Never mind.

Todd said he's looking forward to having your backfield in his hands
