While there is a good chance that the higher seed will inevitably win each game, I am going to do my best to at least plant some seeds of doubt in each game as to why there IS hope for the lower seed...

JOHOR v. HO CHI MINH

The Happy Endings thrive on their running game. They kept pace early with Johor, going into halftime up 14-10, so it's not like they aren't capable. If Ho Chi Minh can keep their ground game going strong for the whole game and keep the Johor offense off the field as much as possible, you never know what can happen in a close game in the 4th quarter.

UJUNG v. DAVAO

I'm not sure how to explain Davao, I believe all season they've played below their potential (although I bet the 11 teams that finished behind Davao in the standings would beg to differ). If they can play to the best of their abilities, I think Davao not only has a chance to pull the upset in this game, but could make a run at the whole thing.

BUFFALO v. MAUI

Maui is the last team to have a 4th quarter lead on the Rampage, so if there is any doubt about whether or not TetraH can keep up with this Buffalo offense, erase it from your minds right now. Not to mention, Maui took top seeded Johor to overtime in Week 13. This is a very dangerous first round opponent for the 2 seed.

SINGAPORE v. MEDAN

In their week 16 matchup, the Nose ran up the score early and put the game out of reach, but the Shipwreckers never-say-die attitude in the 4th quarter had to put doubt in the back of Singapore's minds and confidence in Medan's minds that they CAN run with the 3-seed. The fact that Medan beat Johor and just lost by 6 to Buffalo can only add to their team confidence heading into the postseason.

Here's my early bracket predictions. I'll just warn you right now that I'm picking Buffalo to take the conference...can't pick against my own team.

Round 1:
Johor over Ho Chi Minh
Davao over Ujung
Buffalo over Maui
Singapore over Medan

Round 2:
Johor over Davao
Buffalo over Singapore

Round 3:
Buffalo finally finds a way to beat Johor in our 4th attempt

Johor Vs Ho Chi Minh:

Ho Chi Minh shouldn't be in the playoffs, half their roster is often
CPU. Johor will blow out the Happy Endings.

Ujung Vs Davao

Did Ujung get lucky mid season when these two faced off? Sure, I can
admit Davao as a favorite during the season, but come playoff time I have
to put my cards on Ujung or look like a punk of an owner. Warriors by 6.

Buffalo Vs Maui

Maui is my Cinderella team for Alpha. They're more than capable of beating
everyone in the post season if they play well. Maui by 3.

Singapore Vs Medan

I'm not as fond of Medan as I was the past few games. This team appears
to be more and more one sided. If Singapore stops the quick strikes,
they'll not have any trouble. Singapore by 10.

#4 Ujung Pandang Warriors vs #5 Davao Dogs - UP Warr. cover 7 1/2

The Pornos have finally (I believe) worked out some bugs. Not going to say anything, but I think you will see a different team now in the playoffs!

we have some issues, that's for sure, but we've also had some bad bounces recently.

over the last 3 games combined, we've Forced 7 fumbles and recovered Zero. while our opponents over the same 3 games, have forced 5 fumbles and recovered 4 of them.

that was definitely the key in the last game, and against Ujung, i think you guys forced 2 and recovered both while we forced 3 and recovered zero. there were other missed opportunities, but that has hurt us.

Certain is a tough ass conference, and I can see all 8 teams having a realistic shot. Some are so damn close its insane... like betterhands says above, its going to come down to some luck in some cases turnovers and such. May the best teams win, good luck to all!!

#1: Johor Bahru Assassins vs #8 Ho Chi Minh Happy Endings - I know, its my team.... but I still have to take the Assassins to control the game and prevail.

#4 Ujung Pandang Warriors vs #5 Davao Dogs- This is the toughest one, and I would not be surprised to see the winner even take the championship game. Im gonna take the Dogs in a close game, always had a feeling about them.

#2 Buffalo Rampage vs #7 Maui TetraHConnoissieurs- Another tough game, but I just dont see the upset coming as Buffalo is a real real good team. Im glad JBA doesnt have to face em yet. Buffalo in a good game, somewhat close, maybe 24-17.

#3 Singapore Nose vs #6 Medan Shipwreckers- Can never count out the Nose, but if some of those bounces go Medans way... I can see the upset here. Ill go with Nose in a tight battle... best chance of overtime is this game.
