Championship Finals
1 SMILF vs 4 100% That Commish
It's all been leading up to this. The championship match up features the two teams with the best records in the regular season. SMILF has had the upper hand in both previous matchups, winning by 12.84 points in Week 3, and then sneaking by with a 3.58 point victory in Week 12, for an average margin of victory of 8.21 points. But they say it's hard to beat a team three times, and that's what 100% That Commish is hoping for in this championship finals matchup. SMILF came in to the league for their first season and has just blown by the competition, racking up an impressive 12-2 record in the regular season and flawless 6-0 record in the division. Now the upstart newcomer faces off against the three time league champion 100% That Commish, who boasts the highest point total in the regular season. Can 100% That Commish finally get one over on the league leader? Or will we induct a new member in to the Hall of Champions? There's a lot on the line in this final matchup of the season.
3rd Place Game
2 Houston Dinkel vs 6 Captain Morgan
The third place matchup looms for two teams who just missed out on the championship game this season. Houston Dinkel has been strong all season, pushing out an impressive 10-4 record that saw them finish two games ahead of the rest of their division. Grabbing the two seed in the bracket looked to put them in close contention for a shot in the championships. And Houston Dinkel went in to the Sunday night game fully ahead and looking to move on. But it was not to be, and they now find themselves squaring off another lower seed in Captain Morgan. Captain Morgan fought back valiantly from an 0-3 start to the season and went on an impressive 8-3 tear to finish the regular season and grab a playoff spot. Their quarterfinal matchup saw them beat out the three seed to grab a spot in the semifinals. But much like their opponent, Captain Morgan couldn't capitalize on their opportunity, and now find themselves battling it out for third place. It's still a matchup in the championship side of the bracket, but this one is just for bragging rights.
Consolation Finals / 7th Place Game
7 Keeping Up with the Jones’ vs 9 Ginger Lightning
Two teams full of promise and hope when they entered the season. Keeping Up with the Jones' fought an up and down campaign throughout the regular season and did just enough to grab them a first round bye in the consolation bracket. A semifinal matchup victory of 27 points saw them move on the finals of the bracket. Keeping Up with the Jones' will now face off against last year's champion, Ginger Lightning. A team that came out the game strong in Week 1 quickly stumbled and never really found their proper footing. A 5-9 record sent Ginger Lightning to ninth place and a spot in the consolation quarterfinals. They snagged two victories to now go for a chance at the seventh place in the league. Which team will come out victorious in this final game of the season?
9th Place Game
8 Doc Browns Toilet Bowl vs 11 Autodraft Bitches
Look, we know this is like watching the Jets and Jaguars play each other. It's a matchup that only those with rooting interest will pay attention to, without much attention from outside people. But this matchup could still be a little spicy. You have two teams coming off a loss, with Doc Browns Toilet Bowl squandering their first round bye and falling in the semifinals. Autodraft Bitches actually won their first post season matchup, but couldn't build on the momentum to grab a second victory in the semifinals. Now these two teams must battle for ninth place in the league. It's a fall from grace for Doc Browns Toilet Bowl, who looked poised to grab a playoff spot before their Week 14 matchup. It's honestly better than anticipated for Autodraft Bitches, who was a projected bottom finish team this season. So maybe it isn't the Jets vs Jaguars. Maybe this is more like the Texans and the Bears - two teams with nothing going on, but at least they aren't the bottom of the pack. Either way, someone will be paying attention.
