GIT Playoffs - Round 1

It's Playoff Time!
While not as exciting as the current NFL playoffs, I'm sure the players and fans alike will see some games worth watching, some upsets possible, and ultimately a showdown of two good teams, going head to head.

#1 Freedom vs #4 Magic Pool

Both come into the playoffs, less than hot, but look to play well and make it into the finals. Freedom was able to win last week, and hold up for that #1 spot, which gives them homefield advantage and allows their Captain(Not sure who that is, as they still dont have one listed) to make the match-ups in thier favor, which hurts MP more than anyone in this game. Freedom has the better lineup, and with the ability to play players like Corey,Petey and Ash twice, they could be up in a hurry, with Magic Pool seeing their playoff season end fast. As long as the core of Freedom shows up, this one will be easy, but if not then they could be ripe for an upset.
5-2 Freedom


#2 Straight Shots Vs #3 Extreme Pool Competitors

These two teams come into the playoffs with relative good streaks, and good performances. StraightShots is +2, coming off wins against Freedom and Ultimate Outlaws, while Extreme Pool Competitors is coming in with a +3 against Straight Shots,Money In The Bank, and Brit Pool. StraightShots will want to look to the future and not the past, with the only two meetings between these two both going to Epc. After a 5-0 spanking in the first half, they were able to bring it closer with a 3-2 loss just weeks ago. SS has a considerable deeper team, but what Epc lacks in numbers they make up for in ability. This could be a close match, depends on the matchups Nigel plays. Does he choose to use players like Nick against the weaker members of Epc, or does he play him head to head against the better players and hope that he prevails. Either way, this will be the match to watch and these two teams shouldnt disappoint.
5-4 Extreme Pool Competitors
