Well gents, here is the story of these two teams which are quite similar... Tokyo lost to the team that had the number one seed in the league way back on week 7 which Tokyo looked horrible as they had -42 yards rushing, but that had nothing to do with the rushing game, but that of the 12 sacks they gave up.... Then came the league championship against Berlin Kreuzberg Red Stars... This time Tokyo had something figured out maybe? As HB Michael Lane lead the way in the routing of the # 1 seed with 14 Rush for 19.5yds and 8 Rec, for 191yds and 3 TDs! I guess that was the weak spot!? Then the RAVING MAD DAWGS had their loss against the # 1 seed team yet again as they did in season 9.... This time the # 1 seeded Bikini Island Atomic Surfers dealt the DAWGS their first loss of season 10 with the score 20 to 30 as Bikini got 21 unanwsered points in the thrid by the way of a forced fumble that was turned into a 7 point drive by Bikini and then Bikini had a 59 yard INT for 6 and another 72 yard INT for 6! Rough! But then the DAWGS came to the league championship game and had No lost fumbles nor INTs retruned for TDs As they showed Bikini that Alpha was the DAWGS stomping grounds with the help of Brandon Gilchrist and his33 Rushes for 188yds and 4 Rec for 24.5yds with a total of 5 TD!
So now these two teams will finally meet today and here is the match up!

Now I show the bars for the teams, but we all know these bars mean jack shit... So let's break these guys down!
RAVING MAD DAWGS
These guys had a great run last season that end with them losing the title game, will history repeat its self? The DAWGS come into the todays game with a pretty stout D, this team has only allowed 8 TDs all season! 6 were through the air and only 2 on the ground! The DAWGS rush D only allows 41.7 yards a game which has them ranked 4th in the league in that deparment and as for their Pass D, teams manage to put up around 176 yards a game... Pretty nice there also DAWGS, that stat was good enough to put the DAWGS 2nd in yards allowed through the air.... As we talk about that D I notice the DAWGS had 94 sacks on the season which was 4th most in the league and also have the best Force Fumbles/Fumble Recoveray ratio in the league but which is key to have against anyone and also have the 5th most INTs with 19 and 12 of those were taken back! I would rather not talk about the DAWGS and their stats too much, I will let the game do that for you, I am just giving insight! Last thing I will say is that Rushing attack of the DAWGS is just sick... they have over 6000 yards on the season which is the highest in the league by almost 1000 and then they have the second most Rushing TDs with 141...
Championship! Tokyo Sumo
These guys come in today with a pretty impressive Offense but it is a little Pass Heavy. (Rushing 15th Passing 2nd) Then their Pass D has only allowed 3 TDs this season, while their Rush D has done the same... Just 3 TDs, that is amazing, Good job there gents! Tokyo seems to ride their QB to their wins as Christopher Cullen has the highest yards of any QB out there in the Regular season and in the Playoffs, Cullen has yet to throw a pick in the playoffs and throw only 7 on the season... This QB could light up the DAWGS secondary know they have yet to really face a prolific passing team as this... As Tokyo will spread the Ball out to everyone from their TE Chris Cullen to their back up HB Joe DiMascio. This should spread out that DAWGS D, but be wary of those sacks, because as good as Tokyo is they struggled at keep their QB safe! none the less these guys have the tools to win the title!
Predictions:
The DAWGS made it this far last season only to have their hopes crushed by the Mighty Gators... with lighting strike twice? Or is this Tokyo's year knowning they have not made it past the second round of the playoffs ever....
DAWGS D is just too much here and to be honest the X factor is not even on the D side of the ball, as it is that of the DAWGS O-line and the league leading pancake machine they have there...
