Wow, sorry to wreck a perfecto season Bill/Indys, that was some kind of turnaround from our previous game, guess the change in defensive gameplan made a big diff and/or just caught a good sim/rolls. The Big Tree D has been carryin us on thru the playoffs. Funny how we finished the season with losses to the Indys and Triangles, and now back to back again.
gg Triangles. The Burn had an inflated record, playing a 4th place schedule. Be lucky to make the playoffs next year with a 1st place schedule and playing the Red Woods twice.
for all the teams still alive in the playoffs: good luck the rest of the way, and I hope I steal your picks in the draft!
Unreal loan/Dayton, that was a very rare comeback in a playoff game, down 21 at the half, after the offense had been completely shut down and the defense gettin picked apart. I was already lookin at what I would need to try and do for new players based on the **** kickin that was goin on in that first half. Even when it got to 21-14, I was thinkin that it would be a "tease" and you'd get one or two more scores to put it out of reach from that point. But, we got the big play and tied it up, we both missed FGs, and then we got the pick on your 33 followed by the TD in 3 plays to take the lead. I still didnt feel confident at that point, been several times in that situation only to see the lead get blown. Not until we got the first down after the 2 min warning and could kill the clock.

It was a great match. You really described it to the point. Best wishes for the Bowl.
