Well its been a while since I done this...

Here is the deal, we have Lowcountry Gators that are lead by their Own Legend coming in to face Tuvalu Tigersharks that have had a bit of a rough season in my opinion.

The Gators have been so graciously titled the number two team in the league... nice bullseye again Legend, a step down from last season, but still marked! As for the Tigersharks, they have failed to recieve any love in those... polls... right, but I tell you this, I would rather face any team besides the Gators and Redcliff Razamanaz than to face them again!

SO here is what the match-up looks like http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=4838&team2=87 which means shit, but its nice to get an idea before we start rolling here. Now the Break Down!

Lowcountry Gators
Once again Legend you find yourself at the top of the list in many Defensive catagories... The Gators D come in to the game only allowing 207.6 yards a game through the air which ranks them 9th in the league in that catagory and on top of that only allow 6 TD's this season from teams passing attacks which makes them tied for 3rd in the league in that area! Now once again their RUN D is just sick... only allowing 6 yards a game! oh and that makes them ranked numero uno in that area ladies! Now I am not gonna give everything away for the Tigersharks, but I am going to throw these last two numbers out for shits and giggles, The Gators have the leagues highest amount of sacks at 86 with also the highest amount of hurries at 129... Hey Tigersharks tell your QB to not hold onto the ball! But wait, tell him not to even throw it, the Gators also have the highest amout of picks in the league also with 20 and half of those where taken for 6!

Now for the Sharks!

Tuvalu Tigersharks
These guys are a great team, fuck that poll... they are really the only team that may have made the Redcliff Razamanaz sweat with a score of 24-30! Now I know I said that their B should not throw the ball against the Gators, but I think that is their best chance and besides the Sharks have only thrown 3 int's this season any ways, and on top of that their O-line has done a great job at protecting their QB for the Sharks have only had 10 sacks done to their QB making them 7th in the league at sacks allowed! Then lastly for that passing attack, the Sharks have the 4th highest Pass Completion Pct. at 71.4 so throw the pig skin my friend! Tuvalu are not to shabby themselves at the D, these guys have only allowed 7 TD's through the air which puts them at fifth in the league for that stat. Last thing to note is that this will be the first team that will honestly test the Gators on the ground, the Tiger sharks have the second most rushing TD's in the league(65) along with the 3rd highest amout of yards a game at 261.5!

This will be an Offense vs. Defense Battle! anyones game here gents and the Gators will be tested!

Advantage
Rushing: Tigersharks
Passing: Tigersharks
O-Line: Tigersharks
Defense: Gators
Kick Return: Gators
Punt Return: Tigersharks
Special teams overall: PUSH

Predictions
I hate this part with a game like this... both have great GM's not really alot of trash talking out of either one. This is not a must win for either team, the Sharks will make anyones first round game an absolute nightmare and the Gators the same.... the only thing is where will they sit? Sharks will be struggling to get that last home field spot that is the biggest thing this game. Gators D will be outstanding as always but will be tested this game!

Score.
Tuvalu Tigersharks 17 Lowcountry Gators 24

Great write up and glad to be the GOTW. (This is Favre4Pres btw) Changed to Titletown... I can no longer support the Diva's campaign. He's still and ironman and probably still my favorite of my generation. The man wants to play football, but spite and vengeance has changed the man. I do not know what happened behind those doors between him and Thompson, but the man is on mission. GL Favre.

Anyhow, moving on. Again, Josh- nice job with this one.
