Holly shit, that's a play-off game!! Down to the wire! 4&5 and the Rookie RB put the ball in the End zone from the Slot in a Screen play.
We really need to step up and improve our gameplan to face the terrific Salt Lake City AI team...

Awesome season by PXT, about to pull out the upset in the playoffs, you have built something really special here

Nice!

gg, Yuma! The better team won.

Our defense has just been pretty trash this year and we're not going to overcome -3 turnover ratio.

Hopefully we'll be back again next year!

Wow, what a gut shot loss. I am going to lose sleep over this one for a while. Good luck Ohio in the next round!

Take nothing away from Ohio, but what is REALLY annoying is that my gameplan is set up to play press coverage against 005 no matter the situation in the red zone. Press coverage's strength is screen passes and short middle passes. But for whatever reason (maybe because it was under two minutes and the game throws everything out the window then?) my team was in cover 1, which is bad against screen passes. Here it is, working as intended:

1-5-PXT05 (2Q: 13:07) Brendan Ciszek pass fell incomplete, intended for RB Bart Poston. DT Nick Ackerman hurried the quarterback into a bad throw.

OFFENSE

005 Personnel

DEFENSE

43 Under, Nickel Personnel, Press-2

The 2-minute drill defense in this version is absolutely rubbish. I lost myself some tight games because of it, so I do feel your pain.

4 really good games, there for a while I thought Ohio & Yuma were going to get upset in there games and yea I was rooting for upsets, I enjoy seeing the underdogs win. They was good games and very respectable losses. Next season is going to be interesting I feel for some of these teams. For long while it was all Waco and Boston. I enjoy seeing different teams in playoffs each year.

GL Yuma, & North Liberty in NC Championship
GL Salt Lake & Ohio in AC Championship

I don't know that we are the better team, but we did manage to win in a game I shook my head and muttered "damnit" under my breath more than a few times while watching. We were killing ourselves with penalties, wiping out first downs and a big, game tying touchdown at one point.. But late in the game we finally got our act together, the defense played exceptionally after a shaky start, and Grasso came on late with some huge runs for us to help finish the game off after it seemed that Dakota had solved our rushing attack. It was a good game, FoosballWizard.

We've seen a lot of North Liberty recently it seems, and I never look forward to these games. Should be a real scrum. They have a shot at revenge for the game we stole from them early in the year with a miraculous punt return that saved our asses.

What about North Liberty?? This team was claimed by Hoosier AFTER the preseason, so basically he took an AI maligned team and turn them to a Superbowl contender. Hats down to his terrific work.

Still gotta get past Yuma and Julio (down by the school yard). Couldn't pass that one up. Tough game, tough matchup.

I can see the exports of the remaining teams up and ready... Shall I fire it now guys??

[Guest]

Fire away...I'll find some cover...lol

Still can't get over it!
