Power Rankings
Corona Bracket: ADRZ v The Dream Team & Bear Necessities v IKNAN. Winners go to the Corona Bowl, losers to the Kumar Bowl
1. The Dream Team, 8-6: After leading the division for so long, they dropped their last game to Bear Necessities and were at risk of missing out on playoffs altogether. Luckily, other results went their way and they got the wildcard. This team had horrible match ups last week, so look for them to rebound to the Corona Bowl.
2. Bear Necessities, 8-6: This team needed to win, and they did. Despite mountains of injuries the team keeps trucking. I have to believe at some point that they'll run out of steam, and it could definitely be this week as they're at their weakest, but they only need two more good weeks and we could be calling them champions for the second time.
3. IKNAN, 8-6: This team made playoffs by the skin of their teeth. 1.7 points was the difference between making playoffs and not. It wasn't the best of weeks for them, but it was good enough. The team is volatile, but they can score points, there's no question there. Facing an injury marred roster could send them to their first Corona Bowl.
4. ADRZ, 11-3: The regular seasons best and one of the seasons highest scorers finished the year strong, but I still have worries about this team. They've got a tough first match up, but they have got a good team. You can always count on ADRZ to score points, but now that the opposition is tougher my question is if they'll score enough.
Fruit Bracket: Gridiron Gang v Jeff's Seals & Tom's Tyrants v Burdettinators. Winners go to the Fruit Bowl, losers to the Fish Bowl
1. Gridiron Gang, 8-6: 18 points or 1.7 points. Either way you look at it, that's how close they came to making playoffs. This team had their best week of the year in week 14, but it wasn't quite enough. However, they are the favourite right now for the Fruit Bowl. They've got a good roster, and terrific match ups this week.
2. Tom's Tyrants, 7-7: This team was but one win away from pulling off another heroic comeback, but this time it was one win too many. In very un-Tom's Tyrants fashion, the team imploded at the last hurdle. Still, they've been hot the second half of the season, and they get a shot at revenge for last week against...
3. Burdettinators, 7-7: They've really had a great last month of the season. Considering how bad they were at a time, they've done well to dodge the James Milner Bracket. Now, they even have a chance at the Fruit Bowl. The roster has much improved since that sub 40 point week, and they should have a nice last 2 weeks.
4. Jeff's Seals, 7-7: Insert line about being auto drafted and chosen on projected points. They're not great, but who knows?
James Milner Bracket: The Tuckfards v Forge Flyers & The Romosexuals v Patistan. Losers go to the James Milner Bowl, winners to the Soup Bowl
1. The Tuckfards, 6-8: And here we are at the nosebleeds. At one point Coach Merritt looked like they were destined for another playoff appearance, but they crumbled down the stretch to the tune of 4 straight losses, their first losing season and season without playoffs since 2009. But they should win the Soup Bowl.
2. Forge Flyers, 3-11: And so we come to the end of another painful season for Coach Leach. There are silver linings, they improved on last year and there is no question the roster is better. They've still had some bad weeks, but I think they can have a good finish.
3. The Romosexuals, 6-8: I have no idea what will happen this team. Over the last two weeks they could easily lose both in dramatic fashion or win both by lighting up the scoreboard. It would be a disappointing end to Coach Nunn's first season in 5 years if they take home the losers title.
4. Patistan, 5-9: This team had a few upsets along the way and a few nice weeks to close out the season. However, that was when they had two of their best players, Rawls and Dalton, who have now departed. Coach Allen will show his metal as a coach if he's able to avoid losing the James Milner Bowl.
