Can we have a nice break down of the possible scenarios for people to make it in and who they play in semis?

Trent crim? Colin cowherd? Maybe exec?

Thanks !

It's the final week of the round robin and it's truly anyone's game!

My handy stats tracker isn’t updated, so I’m only going off of what the Exec posted last Saturday in last week’s page.

Notes regarding the scenarios below: The first tie-breaker is head-to-head in the round robin, and the second is points against, followed by differential.


Pool A: (PA)
1. White: 2-0 (40)
2. Carolina Blue: 1-1 (70)
3. Purple: 1-1 (51)
4. Coal Grey: 0-2 (104)

If White beats purple, and Coal Grey beats Carolina Blue, then we have white through at 3-0, while we would have a 3-way log jam at 1-2. To have a chance, Coal Grey would need to beat Carolina Blue by 35 points with Purple posting at least 54 points against in their game. But as Lloyd Christmas famously stated “So you’re telling me there’s a chance.” Nobody is out. Can Dave Z change the fortunes of this squad? They have the defensive ability with him, Murg, and Drew playing.

A second scenario in pool A is wins by Purple and Carolina Blue. In that case, White is still at advantage. Carolina Blue would need to post close to a shutout while hoping for a high scoring result between Purple and White, with Purple surrendering at least 20 points, plus one additional point for each point Carolina Blue gives up.

Pool B:
Everyone is sitting at 1-1, so win and you’re in!

Red (56), Royal Blue (58), Black (74), and Green (77).

Ties will favour teams with lowest PA. Advantage Red and Royal Blue in the event that either of their games end in a tie.

Predictions:

Pool A:
Spack and team White overwhelm Purple. I don’t believe Coal Grey is going to get it together and rally, but stranger things have happened. At this point I’m writing them off. Let’s see if they write back.

Pool B:
Red earns back that win that they suffered against Black in the opening weekend. Neeraj is playing fantastic defence, but Joe should be able to find many other open areas as he stretches this field.
Royal Blue tops Green, giving Jelani yet another ticket to the final four. Frank is out.

If my predictions come true, then White vs Royal Blue in one semi, while Red vs Carolina Blue in the other.

Dave Z asks, and Dave Z delivers.
Looks like a pretty solid slate of games. Bring some warm clothes and stick around to see what happens!

I have a feeling Jelani's luck just might be about to run out, regardless if Frank plays. Injury report isn't out for this week anyways.

White wins pool A, while Black and Green win out in Pool B.

After a minor correction, the PA mentioned above by Trent have shifted slightly.

White has 46 PA.

Red has 55 PA.

Barring a 4-way tie at 1-1-1 the correction above has no bearing as a tie between red and black would mean that red advances based on PA.

White having an additional 6 PA is a tuddy. That might actually slightly shift the Vegas odds. Of course that's a moot point when White runs rampant, leaving the opposition with a facial that matches their jersey colour.

Frank still sucks and is leading candidate for the big POTG nomination...

and by that I mean BIGGEST PICKLE ON TEAM GREEN!
