MDSSC - Summer Flag Football - Regular Season Wrap-up

Alright gentlemen, and I use that term loosely...the season is over and now it is time for the playoffs. Update on the Pro playoffs. It is now and 8 team playoff instead of just the top two. More on that in a minute. First, lets look at what happened yesterday. 

ALL-PRO: 

Victors (5-1) vs Fuzion (3-3): The Victors lost their 2nd game in a row, this time to the 3-3 Fuzion team. I didn't get to see the game but it looked like a late TD was able to put Fuzion up for the win. I heard that the Victors still had a chance and actually scored a TD at the last second to have it reversed due to a sack. Either way, Fuzion is on a roll and Victors are sliding a little...they better turn it on next week. 

Franchise (2-4) vs Jacked Up (1-3): This was a pretty good game. I think it was too early for both teams and they started off slow but Jacked Up was able to hold off a late surge to seal it 28-22. Both of these teams had multiple games so I will hold my thoughts until later. 

Untouchables (6-0) vs All Express (2-4): Here is the shocker for the day. All Express knocked off the Untouchables, giving them their first loss of the season. I got to watch the end of the game when Untouchables was trying to comeback but after a desperation throw that ended in an INT it was a done deal. I didn't think I would get to say it this season but All Express looks good and could be a sleeper.

Jacked Up (1-3) vs CCC (2-4): No nothing about this game but was told that JU beat CCC.

Franchise (2-4) vs LBH2 (3-3): Franchise woke up and turned things around to win this one 41-21. LBH seems to have a little dissension among them... P.S. Qb for LBH is one of the quickest guys in the league if not THE quickest.

Mayhem (4-1) vs Jacked Up (1-3): Didn't get to see this game either but I heard that Mayhem's defense locked it down to win this one.

PRO: 

Hitmen took care of the Spartans early and Hit Squad did the same to Go 4 Broke. Both games were over by halftime. The only other game that mattered was TTB vs Shire. I had this as the game of the week but TTB put an end to that one early as they got a hold of the lead. The game didn't matter all that much but it was a solid win by a solid team. 

SEMI-PRO: 

You may have seen what Zack posted earlier today if not you can see it here. The game that was key to me was the dominating win by Balls Deep over the other #1 team Crabcakes. 

 Lastly....The MAC Poll:

ALL PRO MAC POLL:

1. (LW 1) Untouchables (6-1)

2. (LW 3) Victors (5-2)

3. (LW 2) Mayhem (6-1)

4. (LW 4) Fuzion (4-3)

5. (LW 7)  Jacked Up (3-4) 

6. (LW 5) Franchise (3-4)

7. (LW 8) All Express (3-4) 

8. (LW 4) LBH2 (3-4)

9. (LW 9) CCC (1-6)

10. (LW 10) Scores (0-7)

Okay, here is my final poll. Some teams evened up this week and although the Victors slipped, I still feel like both them and the Untouchables are the best teams in the league this season. With that being said, I like what All Express looks like even though no one knows who is there from week to week except for my fellow Madden players and Kosty. Jacked up had 3 games and went 2-1.. It's hard to say how they will play next week. Fuzion had a huge boost of confidence after this weeks win and Franchise had some positive results as well also going 2-1 with a dominating win over LBH2. 

Officially, I believe the standings will leave these rankings:

East: #1 Untouchables, #2 Mayhem, #3 Fuzion, #4 Jacked Up, #5  Franchise

West: #1 Victors, #2 LBH2, #3 All Express, #4 CCC, #5 Scores 

The big question is: Does Mike do reseeding after the first round? Victors and Untouchables get a bye since it is a 10 team playoff.  I would imagine that it's Mayhem vs Scores, LBH2 vs Franchise, Fuzion vs CCC, and All Express vs Jacked Up. I will have my thoughts later in the week. 

 

PRO MAC POLL:

1. TTB (6-1)

2. Shire (6-1)

3. Hit Squad (6-1)

4. Hitmen (4-3) - IN

5. Menace (2-4?) 

6. Bulldawgs (2-4?)

7. Go 4 Broke (1-6)

8. Spartans (0-7)

Now it is officially an 8 team playoff...

West: #1 Shire, #2 Hit Squad, #3 Bulldawgs, #4 Spartans

East: #1 TTB,  #2 Hitmen, #3 Menace, #4 G4B

It should look like this: Shire vs G4B, TTB vs Spartans, Hit Squad vs Menace, Hitmen vs Bulldawgs. 

SEMI-PRO MAC POLL:

1. Balls Deep (6-1)

2. Crabcakes (6-1)

3. Circus Show (3-3)

4. Bayside Tigers (2-6?)

5. Warriors (2-4)

6. I Hate Brion (0-6)

I honestly don't know what is going on but I do know this... It will be Balls Deep vs Crabcakes for the championship and if Balls Deep's QB doesn't try to win it with his cannon of an arm they will be the champs.
