The playoffs are here. Time to turn the hulking up in high gear.

Here's what the Round 1 matchups are looking like:

8. MexiHawks (7-6) @ 1. Terminus Terminators (10-3)

5. 6969 Manticores (8-5) @ 4. Ryan's Rad Team (8-5)

6. Elite Ones (8-5) @ 3. Merlin Olsen Twins (8-5)

7. Pillsbury Doughboys (8-5) @ 2. Super Soldiers (9-4)

Re-seeding after each round so the highest seed plays against the lowest seed.

Any predictions or trash talk?

I ended the main season with the most points for.

For round 1, I'm predicting Ian, myself, Caleb and Pops make it to round 2.

Then Ian beats me and Pops beats Caleb.

Then Ian wins the whole thingie, iwbh.

Ian would face Caleb in the 2nd round in that scenario, tbh.

How does this get laid out? The way it's put in the first post makes it seem like the winners of the first two games face each other in round two, as do the winners of the third and forth games.

"Re-seeding after each round so the highest seed plays against the lowest seed."

The bracket gets reorganized after each round so that it's top seed vs. bottom seed. It's been like that since either last year or the year before that. People complained about the set bracket. Re-seeding is also the way the NFL does it so I like it better this way as well.

Ooooh, alright.

So, if Round 1 goes as I predicted, I'd face Pops round 2.

Well, my guess for the finals stays the same, just with Caleb losing to Ian and me losing to Pops.

I predict an Ian/Caleb final, with Justin vs CB for 3rd Place.

Alright, here's what I'm thinking this week. With no disrespect to Ian....

#8 MexiHawks over #1 Terminus Terminators
#5 6969 Manticores over #4 Ryan's Rad Team
#6 Elite Ones over #3 Merlin Olsen Twins
#7 Pillsbury Doughboys over #2 Super Soldiers

Picking a sweep over all the division leaders was unintentional, but I checked the head-to-heads and went with whose players I thought had the best match-up.

Semis: #5 6969 Manticores vs. #8 MexiHawks
#6 Elite Ones vs. #7 Pillsbury Doughboys

I agree with Caleb on all of em tbh.

It'd be interesting if it came down to me vs. Caleb, cause in the Basketball league, our teams are rivals. Of course, that's 6969 vs. YMCA, not 6969 vs. Elite.

With Ian taking it down?

Predictions after looking at the teams manually:

6969 Manticores has a 73% chance of beating Ryan's Rad Team

Ian's Terminus Terminators has a 77% chance of beating MexiHawks

Merlin Olsen Twins has a 82% chance of beating Caleb's Elite Ones

Super Soldiers has a 45% chance of beating Pillsbury Doughboys

Why was Pops listed with a losing percentage as compared to everyone else?

Also I severely disagree that Mexi only has a 23% chance of winning. I spy some good match ups for his players that could blow up.

I'd like to know how this nigga Huh calculates all this shit.

Calculators are for kids

Huh

Huh is the Nate Silver of the FF playoffs.

I went to check the score for my game and, uhh ... The fuck happened to Ryan's team?

Ryan's Rad Team

Semi-finals:

8. MexiHawks (7-6) @ 3. Merlin Olsen Twins (8-5)

7. Pillsbury Doughboys (8-5) @ 5. 6969 Manticores (8-5)

There's only 1 div champ left standing.

I'm looking forward to the Munchies Bowl.

Damn, the only one that Caleb got wrong was his own game.

And I didn't truly believe I was going to win either, just wanted to feel confident for a bit

I was extremely confident Mexi was going to pull off the 8 over 1 though. When I said I saw players with match-ups they could blow up against I was referring to Hyde and Sanders who combined for 41.

Buuuuuutttt I see a Merlin Olsen Twins vs. 6969 Manticores championship
And an Ian/Pops 5th place game.
