Yeah, UA could easily have the worst record of the playoff teams if he makes it, but his offense makes it such that the #1 seed may opt not to face him. Then again, on average over the first 9 games, he tends to play slightly below the level of his opposition.

Also, I imagine that the number of teams in common will be a large factor in choosing the first round playoff opponents...

I know the last couple of updates haven't come until the next morning, so I might as well give you a heads up that the update for the May 11th games won't get posted until mid-afternoon on the 12th...

Are you trying to fool us into thinking you have a life outside the AO again?
