Big Game Hunting – Week Nine
October 25, 2017
I often think how funny it is to see all the work that goes into figuring out playoff scenarios, especially some of the deep-down tiebreaker stuff.

August 23, 2017
Washington took control of the new-look Century Conference in its inception in 2016. However, the Prexies were the only team from the conference to record a postseason victory. After the Prexies, there is an apparent log-jam for the remaining playoff spots out of the conference.
