Congrats playoff teams! Two teams seperated away from everyone in the Power Rankings, but we'll see if anyone can take them down. Here are my picks, based on power rankings. Winners are bold.

ROUND ONE
Traptors @ Eclypze: Traptors were leading the way for a couple of weeks, but have fallen back to 4th after dropping 4 of their last 6 games. Looks like they've been banking enthusiasm, but I don't think it will be enough to take down Elcpyze at their place. Eclpyze -13

BAT @ Schrodas: We all know the story with BAT. Great work chipping his way into the playoffs, but the run should stop here. This one may not be close. Schrodas -25

Extra Crispy @ Updog: This will be a great matchup. They split in the regular season with each team holding serve at home. I expect the same result, but it will come down to the wire. Updog -4

Cresleys @ Eagles: Eagles have been high on the Power Rankings all year with VERY high in game ratings. The record never reflected it, but they'll still be at home and have already beat the Cresleys twice. Don't expect this one to be close either. Eagles -18

I expect both Big 8 to win the relegation series.

All of the games should be pretty one sided I would think, with the exception of mine. If it isn't Eclypze and Shrodas in the final I would be shocked

Looks like you should practice your shocked expression. Is Eclypze throwing this one?

It sure was... thought I had pulled it off up by two in the end of regulation... Then you jump out 8-0 in OT and I think it's all over... but then my 3-pt guys brought me back to tie it with seconds left - but then heartbreak!

Would rather have seen your stud PF win it not the guard - that matchup usually favors me.

GL - hope you can win it all!

Congrats, East Gary. But, it was a war. In the end, the fouls did us in. Very shocked by the Eclypze/Toronto game. But, then again, that conference is murder. Whoever wins that Updog/Toronto matchup will probably get promoted as the D III Champ.

Good game, Connecticut. I look forward to our match-ups next year. Your team is definitely on an upward trend. Best of luck to Schrodas, Traptors and Updog moving forward...although, as the team with the worst record from the less powerful division, I guess I need that luck more than any of you!

If I do not go bankrupt first, we should be a major player next season. might actually do a lot better than you think against Shroda's. Either way, Updog or Eclypze would have to be the clear favorites in a Finals matchup.
