Who knows the Alpha Conference the best? In a post below this one, play each round to see how many points you end up with. The winner will get something...
*The person who guesses how many I get correct to the exact amount gets 100 points*
(The actually prediction is in italics)
Numero Uno: The Wagga Wagga/Danish game will be tied at the end of regulation.
Wagga and Danish both lost devastating games this season (Wagga to Oahu and Danish to Norfolk), and their regular season game turned out to be a seven point win for the Contract Killers. Neither team has a stellar offense, but both teams can stump the run, and I can totally see a 10-10 score going into OT. Oh--Danish wins 17-10
Numero Dos: Trilla Gives the Warriors a Scare
Trilla seems to have HDW's number in close games (besides an 80 point debacle in the season 6 reg. season), and have always played the former Merkins close. Trilla is traditionally a good playoff team, and the did beat the Merkins last year. They will keep it close, but look for HDW to win by more than 10, less than 14
Numero Tres: Guam won't make it past the second round
Look, the Tigers are a stellar team. They win the big games and score a ton of points. But they perform poorly against the lower level teams for whatever reason. I think they'll beat PM fairly easily, but they will lose to Danish to stay in AA for another year.
Numero Cuatro: Fiji stomps Oahu
Oahu, in my opinion, got lucky getting into these playoffs. They won some good games but I'm still not convinced this team is legit. Fiji, on the other hand, dropped 51 on a well talked about Guam defense, and is frankly an offensive powerhouse. Fiji beats Oahu by 50+
Numero Cinco: Fiji wins Alpha Championship
Fiji is a great team. They play good defense, they can score from anywhere on the field, and they've proven to be probably the best team in Alpha. They have to get past both HDW and Guam (the favorites to win their respective games), but I have a feeling they will represent Alpha in the AA1 championship game
Over/Under for Round 1 *25 points for each correct guess*
Guam/PM Final Total Score - 88
Danish/Wagga Final Total Score - 33
HDW/Trilla Final Total Score - 61

The odds are based on regular season and what I thought would be fair odds, not based on opinion. The predictions are opinion, however lol
