Tallahasee lost in the first round of the playoffs to the #7 seed 9-12 ![](/images/game/forum/smileys/sad.gif)
Hmmm...just looking at the box scores...looks like Tallahassee really struggled in the passing game. Big Tuna was way down on his normal stats; 18/41 (43%), 134.5 yds (3.3), 0 TD 3 INT, 3 Hurried, 1 Sack.
They out gained the other team in yardage, and had 1 less punt (which normally equates into more time controlled), held the other team to a measly 46 yds rushing (1.8 avg).
Looks like both teams struggled back and forth all game in a weird defensive game, with 7 FG's the only scoring. That's funky.
It was a tough loss but I would not consider it an upset. They outleveled us at almost every position and had the top defense in the league. I am not sure where you are seeing CPU players on their team, because they have excellent depth all around. Their defense only allowed 4 TDs all season, with us scoring two of them in our earlier match-up. While they lost more games than us, they lost to the top teams in the league by 2 points 3 points, etc. THey are a very good team and I do not think there was any upset bug or some computer glitch that caused us to lose. We cannot figure out their defense and they are simply a better team than us. They waited to boost and it paid off. About 3/4 of our team waited to boost but some boosted earlier.
Bottom line is that we figured we would lose a few games this year and not win the league. After having some unexpected sucess against teams that were higher level than us I started beleiving a "one and done" season was possible but that was short lived. We will re-group and come back strong next year. It took us two years to win this league, and if we can win AA in 2 years I will be happy.
