Lion Conference
1. Tijuana Thundercats vs. 8. Katanga Diamonds
Katanga will be tenacious but they won't be able to outmatch the Thundercats.
Tijuana 24 - Katanga 20
4. Mozambique Starvin Marvins vs. 5. Cape Verde Headhunters
Both are very strong teams and their last game was decided by 4 points. Can Cape Verde fix their mistakes? I don't know.
Mozambique 14 - Cape Verde 13
2. Beltway Bandits vs. 7. A.C.T Orcas
A.C.T. has worked hard to make the playoffs and now face one of the best teams in the Lion Conference.
Beltway 27 - A.C.T. 17
3. Red Sea Wave vs. 6. Band of Brothers
Red Sea surprised me this year and have been very strong. Band is a good team but seem to fade against good competition.
Red Sea 21 - Band 16
Elephant Conference
1. Ghana Buffalos vs. 8. Rwanda Assassins
The run vs. the pass. Rwanda has a lot game planning to do for this matchup. I don't think Rwanda will be able to stop the vaunted Ghana run attack.
Ghana 28 - Rwanda 24
4. Cairo Crocodiles vs. 5. Togo Strikers
Togo faded at the end of the year. Cairo beat them handily 5 weeks ago.
Cairo 28 - Togo 21
2. Kinshasa Rumblers vs. 7. Zanzibar Leopards
As much as I'd like Zanzibar to win this game I think Kinshasa is too much of a beast to be stopped.
Kinshasa 32 - Zanzibar 26
3. Sierra Leone Magicians vs. 6. Kigali Silverbacks
The first game was a shoot out and I don't expect this one to be much different.
Kigali 42 - Sierra 38

but no one likes to boost early. We really had no choice because if we wanted to make the playoffs we had to boost right away, otherwise we'd probably be 8-8 again.
