(S22) - PT4 - Road to Glory

[JuOSu]

The playoffs are always an exciting time and in a sport like football, we have seen some amazing upsets and surprises. Obviously this sport has a tremendous home field advantage but in one game anything can happen and as I said, we have had some amazing great upsets before so you never know who could win the title. Even the best team might lose at some point. In our case, this season, we come into the playoffs as a mix of a lot of different things. We are coming into it as the last season's winner and defending champion, so there is a lot of pressure on us. At the same time, we come in as a huge underdog, as a team who only snuck their way into the playoffs, barely and after a season in which we honestly struggled a lot. We started four rookies on defense and a couple more on offense and it is still a great sign that we made the playoffs anyway. We will need to essentially win three road games in a row, all with around 30% win percentage or similar to it, so our chances of repeating as champions seems very slim but we will not give up. Crazier things have happened in sport and we have a great team that can beat anyone on a good day. If my math is not completely off, three games of 30% would give us around a 2.7% chance of winning the title. Never say never!
