Elephant Conference

Mogadishu Malice
vs.
Richmond Raiders

This is a battle of two teams that got much better as the season progressed. In week three Mogadishu won 37-34, but closer inspection reveals that they needed two interception returns in the last five minutes of the game and a field goal at the death to squeak out the win. Before the playoffs, I had the winner of our game with Richmond playing Mogadishu in the finals, and I liked Mogadishu to lose. I won't change my mind, and Richmond will advance to the league championship and earn the automatic berth to Africa Pro.

Richmond 37
Mogadishu 20

Lion Conference

Seychelles Island Sea Wolves
Sahara Shadow Chasers

In their regular season clash, the Sahara had no answers for the Sea Wolves and lost by 20. Coming off the most impressive victory of the last round, the Sea Wolves should handle their business, and take the automatic spot in Africa Pro. The class of the Lion conference all season long should handle a game Sahara squad with relative ease.

Seychelles Island 38
Sahara 17

Good luck to all the remaining teams!

...with relative ease? I'm not sure about that. Playing Sahara is never easy. Although, I am hoping for a repeat performance form the last time we met.

Channeling your inner Lou Holtz? No disrespect to Sahara, but you guys are the class of the league at the moment.

Sea Wolves might be the class of the league, but Sahara's that team that if you don't pay attention put up 30 in no time at all. They have the ability to be explosive, and when they get the ball rolling, they're a hard team to stop.

Two predictions for Lion...

34-17 Seawolves

or...

45-27 ShadowChasers

It all depends on wether SSW's defense shows up or if SSC's offense shows up.

Thanks for doing these! Always fun to read, even if you did predict the Malice to lose.

Good luck Richmond!

It'll be a great game to see regardless. DB is right SSW is the class of the league and has been all season. Either way, it'll be sad to either see them leave or leave AAA #1.

Although, I'd rather play the old timers up there again.

Gutted us like a stuck pig. As the DC - I'm embarrassed and amazed at just how bad my gp was.

Great job guys. Go win it for Lion.

Grats to SISW and Richmond, GL to both squads in the final.

Damn, that was a close one, good game Richmond. It came down to the last possession, we just couldn't get an offensive touchdown that game. It still looks like we will be moved up as there are 4 teams that will look to be sent down from Elephant. GL in the finals.

All finalists in AAA#2 has a better regular seaon record than you, so there will have to be a minimum of 6 total promotions to Pro(AAA#1 + AAA#2 total) for you guys to go up, i think
