Round 2 Predictions
After going a perfect 4-0 in the West and an imperfect 1-3 in the East, maybe I should just predict the West? Anyway, here goes!
Western Conference
#1 5th Masterminds vs #4 Monmouth Evil Monkeys - This looks like it could be a decent matchup...but I don't think so. The Masterminds are a step above MEM and they'll show it in this game. MEM may hang close early, but I don't think they have enough firepower to keep up. Masterminds win 48-17.
#2 Chicago Hedgehogs vs #6 Arkham Asylum Jokers - Back in week 15 these two teams played a fairly close game. I could see that happeneing again in round 2. Both teams love to run the ball so it may come down to who can stop the run. I just don't think the Jokers will be able to do that consistently enough. Hedgehogs win 27-17.
Eastern Conference
#1 Las Vegas Gold Diggers vs #4 Nashville Hounds - This could be the best matchup of them all in the second round...and the worst matchup Vegas could have asked for. It took a last second field goal for the Gold Diggers to win in the regular season and it may come down to something similar this time. I'll take the upset. Hounds win 24-20.
#2 Oakland Suppressors vs #6 Richey Royals - This Royals squad just won't go away! Oakland won the regular season matchup 44-0 but Richey's at a whole different level now. This one's hard to predict, but I'll go with the higer seed. Oakland wins 17-9.
Yeah, yeah...I could easily continue my perfect record in the West and continue totally screwing up the East but that won't stop me from at least trying. Good luck to all the teams remaining.
