Short and sort of sweet for Elephant:

Cairo Cannibals vs Rwanda Assassins

Cannibals won in a shoot out in week 2 56-48. Both offenses obviously had their way with each other as the combined yardage was over 1000 yards. The scores also represent highs for what each team both scored and gave up against quality competition with the exception of Cairo giving up 58 to RMoG.

Given that it was early in the season and little information was known about each other and that they had never played before, I suspect this rematch will be a lot more reasonable from a scoring standpoint of view.

I suspect this game is close to a pick em and it will come down to who made the better adjustments and did better scouting on the other, but I think Cairo has a slight edge.

RMoG vs Lake M'Zumba Cannibals:

RMoG blew out the Cannibals with a 56-10 win during the middle of the season and gashed the Cannibal defense with 482 yards of rushing while sacking the Cannibal QB 7 times and notching 10 hurries along with it.

If there ever was a Doctor Jeykle and Mr Hyde team, Lake M'Zumba is it as they can get blown out by a mid tier team one game and pull a monster upset the next game that you never saw coming.

Unfortunately for Lake M'Zumba, I don't see an upset out of this one and RMoG should cruse to an easy win.

EEORG vs Dakar.

Dakar pulled the upset the first time around mid season with a 41-31 win. This is the last time EEORG lost a game and they have been on a tear since. Dakar had a great day hitting big plays on both sides of the ball to put EEORG away in this game while EEORG had QB protection issues. EEORG can take consolation in the fact their top back still averaged 5.4 a carry in this game and that they got over 400 yards of offense. EEORG could have probably notched the win if they had 3 plays back that made the big difference in the game overall.

While I think Dakar is an excellent up and coming team, EEORG is hot right now and they will make the adjustments necessary to win the game and I don't think it will be real close this time if they can eliminate their mistakes. EEORG cruises on.

Richmond vs Cairo Crocodiles.

Richmond dominated Cairo 45-3 in the last game of the season in a game that little worked for Cairo on either side of the ball. The sad thing for Cairo is the game was not even that close.

Cairo will make some adjustments, but I don't see us making a game of it this time around either. Richmond in an easy one.

Fell asleep at 9 last night and just woke up(10 in the morning now lol )

Excellent preview by Klydon, and i agree that Cairo, RMoG, EEORG and Richmond are all favorites in their games.

So I'll just add the 3 Lion games that arent my own


Atlantic Blue Jays at Katanga Diamonds
Probably the least looked forward to play-off game by far, as it seems like the biggest mismatch. Katanga are 100: 1 favorites here, and it would be the biggest upset of the season if the Blue Jays can pull it off. Regular season game ended 70-17



Freetown Palookas at Cape Verde Headhunters
This should be a good game, and the Palookas have now boosted and are ready to show what they can really do. In week 12, CVH beat Freetown 47-20 in a really good game, and it should be even closer this time around. CVH is a power house, but Freetown is the kinda team you can never count out. They haven't pulled any upsets so far this year, and what better time to start



WoA at RSW
RSW got a bad beating at the hands of CVH in week 16, and dropped to 3rd in Lion after leading it and sitting in 2nd for the entire season. Regular season game between these 2 teams go all the way back to week 2, so cant use that game much for prediction purposes, as both teams have changed and evolved since then. RSW should be favorites by more than a little, but WoA should have a good chance of pulling the upset here. They are stronger than ever, and should give any team trouble. RSW needs this win to fulfill their season end goal, and a round 1 exit would cause an outcry amongst the fans.

I am going to ensure the WoA offense bring their A game. I didnt take back control of the offense until game 3 of this season so they havent faced my offense yet Watch out RSW
