(S8) - PT 4 - Rivalry

[RedCydranth]

The rivalry between the Orange County Otters and the Arizona Outlaws is long and storied. For 6 seasons, these two teams were at each other's necks fighting for that coveted ASFC Title. For thhe first 3 seasons of the NSFL, it was all about Arizona. They not only dominated over Orange County, but the entire league. thy were seen as the villains of the NSFL. When the shroud of deceit was lifted and it was proven that many of the better members of the Arizona Franchise were clones, their threepeat became tainted. While there is no way to know for sure how many of those 3 the Outlaws would have won, it was clear that had they played Orange County with a square legal team, there's a better chance that the Otters would have walked into the Ultimus Cup at least once during the Outlaws 3 year run. Once the cheaters were eliminated, it was easy to see how much more dominant Orange County was, as they won the next 3 championships. Arizona didn't exactly fall off the horse though, as they remained competitive and still posted respectable records for Season 5 and 6. Currently, the Otters are still going strong while Arizona is in a complete rebuild mode. But fans will never forget the years that Arizona stole from Orange County.
