Austin Copperheads planned early on that they were going for the title this season. Even as far back as the Draft to when they traded for star running back Ryan Leaf Jr and boy has that delivered. Austin started off incredibly slow and only managed one win in their first 6 games. Even though they boasted the best team in TPE terms, they were sitting bottom of the ASFC conference at 1-4-1. Nevertheless, the tables turned and the team shifted into another gear and would go on to dominate the rest of their games to end with a 7 game win streak to finish 8-4-1 and claim the 2nd seed in their conference and 3rd seed overall. Now that playoffs have come I expect Austin to keep the fire and momentum they’ve built to make a superb run at the title. First they host New Orleans in the wildcard game. This should be a fun and tough game but it’s not hard at all to see Austin coming out on top here, after scorching the Second Line 33-6 in their own house in week 12. This week they’ll have home field advantage to take them down. Next will be onto Orange County which will be very tough and the battle of the 79 speed QBs in Franklin Armstrong and Easton Cole. This will be a game you wont want to miss. And seeing as Yellowknife should almost certainly make the Ultimus given their overall weak conference.. That’ll certainly be a Austin win as everyone knows, theres nothing Yellowknife are better at than choking in the Ultimus.
