FOFC Cup Elite 8
 

My Elite 8 Predictions

[b]Official Schedule, FOFC Cup IV Elite Eight

Home Team in Bold

Tom Sanders Bracket:
It's nice being the Cinderalla, but I think it ends here for Frankfort U. 4-0 Gargoyles. 1-0 after 12.

HornedFrogPurple Bracket:
Bees have chosen to counter-attack against my 2-5-3 Attack Center. I shouldn't have the same midfield dominance as before, with neither wing playing Towards Middle, but it should be enough to take the victory. 3-1 Assassins is my pick. No score after 17.

Kool-Aid Bracket:
The Fighting Crawfish have been tossing up NSI's in the 60's with their B-Team, but unfortunately they're playing the Midwest A-Team, which gets 80+. Midwest easily 4-1. 1-0 after 16.

Run & Shoot Bracket:
YoSoySean has said he has furious TS, and I think that could make the difference. 2-1 Galesburg is my prediction. Intercourse does have an excellent ability to counter-attack, but they are down 1-0 after 8 minutes.

Only 3 goals scored in a Run and Shoot bracket match? Lies.

Thanks Bishop. It's good to get the update! Be weary of those Bees. My best midfielder has yet to recover.

We got ourselves a game YoYoSean. :)

I am getting whooped NCR style in my match. Perhaps Ardent would be man enough for a home and home death match, to be played to the death. Vicious sounding huh.

Well, we're down 2-1 at the half...I expect it to get ugly quick in the 2nd.

Halftime update.

1) Gargoyles (Raven Hawk)
vs.
10) Frankfort United (DukeRulesMAB)

2-1 Gargoyles w/59% possession.

5) Concord Assassins (BishopMVP)
vs.
7) Bees (ausonny)

3-1 Bees with 54% possesion, negating the counter-attack but that doesn't seem to be mattering much.

1) Midwest Ice Storm FC (PilotMan)
vs.
10) Fighting Crawfish (The Afoci)

5-0 Midwest w/66% possession. I wish I had some walkovers in my division.

1) Intercourse Ball Kickers (YoSoySean)
vs.
2) Galesburg Avengers (Coffee Warlord)

1-1 even possession. I'd hate to face this team when they are in good TS.

My next match is against GM-George. You can have me after that beat down.

Still 2-1 Gargoyles after 67
and 5-0 Midwest after 66

Now 2-1 Intercourse after 66, and in the most important match,
3-2 Bees lead cut by in half by Concord after 68.

And I'm home now. Glad to be up 3-1 ;)

Congrats, RavenHawk! Here's hoping you take a 3rd title. 'Twas a nice run for Frankfort.

Done! Let it be known that this is for all the peanut butter in the land.

Good match Frankfurt. Although we won 2-1 you put up a hell of a defensive effort. Defense . . . that is allowed in the Tom Sanders bracket, right? ;)

Congrats to all winners!

Sorry it had to be like that Afoci. I went with the true RnS against you all offensive. It was still nice to see no chances for you though.

A far as next weeks match agains Intercourse. I am not scaraficing anything, and I just don't think the B squad can put up those numbers.

It does feel nice to make the Final Four for the second time though. Last time I lost to Mokan on PK's, and they wound up winning, who knows what will happen this time.

It's alright. I ran a mixed A and B squad this week and plan to do it next week too ;)

I'm not playing an FOFC CUp game, but for a good game, switch to my "Cup Rules" friendly. Right now I'm in the 3rd round of PK's and I just went down 0-1.

71158.

Dammit... lost 3-0 on penalties. I had a better mid (poor->disastrous), better D (2 solid & form->pass, sol, form) and 1 worse level of O (inad. & 2 weak->2 inad & 1 weak). Arghhh. Its only a friendly, but its the principle. 45-39.

Got home to a nice surprise, I really thought we would lose this one. Good luck to the Assassins the rest of the year!

Thanks, it was a good match and now we're even in the FOFC Cup. Good luck in your league too, since you actually have a good race going.

PilotMan, that is fine. Nothing that a few suicides and lots of drugs and drinking hasn't taken care of. I lost another guy to injury though, that is 4 major injuries in the last 3 games. Ouch.

I would like to announce I was not in the area when these injuries occurred.
