I'm thinking we make some predictions, and I don't just mean myself. Let's see who can get the closest to predicting the winners through the playoffs. We'll go round by round with the picks.
I'll be the first to submit my picks:
Lion
Seychelles Island over Nairboi - like you expected me to pick against my team when we're the #1 seed. Uh, no. Nairobi is good and can surprise. First meeting: Seychelles wins 57-7
WWR over RRK - Should be a good game, but I see the Rhinos winning. RRK could surprise though. First meeting: RRK wins 62-44
Angola Dream vs. Angola Spider Monkeez - Angola wins. Seriously though, I want to pick the Monkeez, but I'm going to stick with the Dream. First meeting: 33-22 Monkeez
ShadowChasers over DeSWK - Tough pick. I'm honestly torn, but I think Sahara pulls out all the stops and wins a close game(and it could be one that is closer than the score shows). First meeting: 31-17 Sahara
Elephant
Sierra Leone Stallions over Cairo Emporers - I'm not gonna have a #1 seed lose... maybe if they were playing LOL, DD, or the Rhinos. First meeting: 44-20 SLS
Lake Opeta Legionnaires over Congo Cripplers - I expect LOL to be in the Elephant Championship, so I'm not going to pick them to lose here. First meeting: 46-0 LOL
DD over TLGoT - I got tired of typing everyone team's full name. This and the Sahara DeSWK game are the two best games on paper IMO. I want to make this my upset pick, but I don't think TLGoT pulls if off since DD has been adjusting their AI the entire season and TLGoT is behind them. I'm not saying I don't think austin.jones and company can't pull this off, rather, I don't think they will. Should be a good game, but I'm still picking DD. First meeting: 37-0 DD
Ghana Buffalos over Somalia Pirates - This is the only upset I'm picking for round 1 and to be honest, the first game was so close that this could go either way. First meeting: 19-13 Buffalos
