THE FINAL FOUR THAT WAS

Short and sweet... Defending DFC Champ Steven Ray and DFC VIII Champ Drew Morris dominated.  Rookie Garrison Ryfun fell way short, and newly crowned DFC Hasha MVP winner Tim Wasyluka couldn't get it together one more week...

Both Drew & Steven finished with an 8-2 record, tied exactly on the TB at 14 off (though this will remain tied as it doesn't affect anything headed into DeuceBowl XXII)

Big Wasyluka's season ends in the semi-finals, this in his 8th playoff appearance (but first since DFC XVI), and actually his very first final four appearance in his 19th overall season. He finished the week at 6-4.

Kudos to Garrison Ryfun, for a great rookie season, and his bid to be the first rookie champion since Shawn Sharp in DFC I (there's a name I haven't typed in a DFC Email in a long time). He finished his week at 5-5, but his 11-9 overall playoff run this season moves him from 57th to 44th in the playoff standings -- among current DFC'ers, he's right behind Michael Nipp's 12-12 career playoff record. 

In the 22nd edition of the DFC Championship, we have Drew // Morris (the // being the nod to Slash, who himself holds Drew's guitar skills in high regard), winner of DFC VIII.  He's in his 21st year in the league, 7 time West Division Champion, MVP winner in VIII and XIV, and with his 24-6 run in the postseason this year, before we even get to next weekend, he's now #1 on the all time Playoff Win list, and is now #2 not only on the Regular Season win list (1233-771) but also #2 on the All Time Win List (1409-855)... behind... Yours Truly. Boo ya. A win next weekend would not only give Drew his 2nd championship, he would then hold the record for most seasons between titles (13 seasons, besting Mark "The Mighty" Gainey's 8 years between titles, from IX to XVIII)

Finally, Steven Ray, the humble, quiet principal who keeps showing his football prowess by not only grabbing his 2nd championship last year (the first being in DFC XV), but now has a shot to do two historic things -- be only the 2nd DFC'er to win 3 titles (Tad "The Dynasty" Roose won II, IV, and VII), but the very first to ever go back to back.  Essentially, Steven Ray is on the verge of becoming one of the all time greats. 

Full results and seasonal recap coming after DeuceBowl XXII!  

Yep, we've done this for going on 2 1/2 decades.

All games must be sent at same time, and must be in by Saturday at kickoff.  You can change your picks as needed until Saturday morning, when all games are locked in.

College games are decent, NFL games are terrible, hence a 7/3 split...

THE WEEK THAT WAS 
Perhaps it was a little too late, but perhaps the greatest DFC'er of all time (to be fair, Tad "The Dynasty" Roose has 3 titles, as opposed to two, but comparing overall careers may put Gainey in the top spot) had a grand week to finish the season overall. And yet, I had to check three times to confirm, Mark "The Mighty" Gainey has not won a DFC Week in 13 years -- 139 weeks -- since DFC IX in 2008... but congrats to Gainey for his 10th Weekly Win of his career, finishing the season at 8-2.

Coming in 2nd for the week, another legend that will fail to make the postseason, Big Eddy finishing up at 7-3, while Drew // Morris and Grandy Latta tie for 3rd at 7-3.

Brad "Lawdawg" Latta takes 5th, Brad "The Bald One" Ashby and Matt "Pinky the Eldest" Pinky tie for 6th, Garrison "Spawn of Macon" Ryfun and Lil Eddy Jr tie for 8th, and Jonny Oz and Tad "The Dynasty" Roose tie for 10th to round out the Top 10 -- all at 6-4.

Also finishing
6-4: Tommy "The Highlander" McLeod... Young Garrett... 

5-5: Defending DFC Champ Steven Ray... Zack "The Attack" Graves... Bradley "Pinky the Wisest" Pinky... Wook-Fu... Hurricane Rhett... Tyler "SPSBotDFC" Campbell... Big Tom J... James "Not a Playoff Maker" Hawbaker... DMO... David "What Tha" Tuck... Mikey "High" Nipp...

12. Matthew Pinkerton, 52-44 (8.8) - Wild Card

PLAYOFF RULES REMINDER

Out of the entire league, the top 12 records will get playoff berths.  All division winners are guaranteed a spot -- if a divisional champion's record is outside of the top 12, the division winner in particular will be the 13th seed. 

Top four seeds in record get a First Round Bye.

The Wild Card Weekend will consist of the remaining 8+ DFC'ers, in the playoff first round. After determining playoff seeds, the seasons TBA will be disregarded and will no longer count. The best FOUR records out of the 8+ will advance to the Divisional Round, the Conference Semi-Finals, joining those Four who had first round byes. 

Then, the best Four records out of those 8 will advance to the DFC Final Four. The best of the two that weekend will then go on to DeuceBowl XXII.

THE WEEK THAT WAS

Two DFC'ers ended the week with a 6-2 record, and only 2 off of the tiebreak score... thus, we revert to a new record tiebreak rule installed this season... the rule states that if there are identical records, look at the tiebreak game itself -- if one person picked the winner, they'll get the nod over someone with the same record if that person didn't pick the winner of the game. 

Hence, Eddy Mc Jr is denied his first weekly win since DFC XV in 2014, ending up in 2nd for the week -- and Lil Stevie Ray becomes but the 14th (by my count) DFC'er to win two weeks in a row. Like I warned you people... Steven is suddenly on fire, and will be the one to beat in the playoffs, as the defending DFC Champ.

For the rest of the top ten, also creeping up quickly as we head to the postseason, Brad "The Bald One" Ashby takes 3rd, The Big Wasyluka continues his great year for 4th, And Big Tom Johnson gets 5th, while Jenni Ernst and Wook Fu tie for 6th, all at 6-2.

Mark "The Mighty" Gainey seems to have righted his ship, this week for 8th, at 5-3, also the record of Bradley "Pinky the Wisest" Pinky for 9th, and wrapping up the Top 10, Brad "Lawdawg" Latta.

Also Finishing:
5-3: Tyler "SPSBotDFC" Campbell... Tad "The Dynasty" Roose... Yours Truly...

4-4: Zack "The Attack" Graves... Drew // Morris... DMO... Tha Croyle... Big Eddy... Grandy Latta... Tommy "The Highlander" McLeod... Garrison "Pride of Villa Rica" Ryfun... Mikey "High" Nipp... Danny P... David "What Tha" Tuck...

THE WEEK THAT WAS
It's getting about that time of the season when Steven Ray gets hot... it's happened every year for the last few seasons, He bumbles about in the first part of the year, then as we turn the corner and stride to the postseason, here he comes -- he did just that last season, en route to winning the whole thing, his 2nd DeRamus Plate Championship. 

And here he is, in Week 7, taking his fourth weekly win of his career, this time at 8-2.  Coming in 2nd, at 7-3, Eddy Jr, and in a close 3rd, Trey "The Answer" Cartledge, also 7-3. The Big Wasyluka continues his fabulous season at 6-4, good enough for 4th, while Drew // Morris and DMO tie for 5th place. Drew "Grassman" Warren gets 7th, Mitchell "Pinky the Youngest" Pinkerton gets 8th, Big Tom J in 9th, and rounding out the Top Ten, Wookiee Fulaytar.

THE WEEK THAT WAS
Leave it to Texas & Oklahoma to have a score so jacked up, that someone who picked 66 for the TB would still be 37 points off... thus is the score that gives a rookie his first weekly win of his career, as Garrison "The Pride of Marietta" Ryfun takes home the crown, edging out #2 Tommy "The Highlander" McLeod... both had 9-1 marks for the week. 

A handful of 8-2 records are up next, with Hurricane Rhett in 3rd, Mitchell "Pinky the Youngest" Pinky in 4th, and iun 5th, Trey "The Answer" Cartledge (all three former DFC champs by the way, in XVI, XIX, and XI respectively.

THE WEEK THAT WAS
What a disaster the NFL was for everyone... a dozen 5-0 and 4-1 records collapsed as out of 34 DFC'ers, only one had a 3-2 record (Bradley Pinkerton).  The NFL sucked for everyone. 

That said, Lt Dan "Magic Legs" Sellers takes home his third weekly win of his career (DFC X Wk 2 & DFC XV Wk 6), thought it might be one of those "team wins 9-6 in a sloppy Iron Bowl" wins. But it's still legit... at 5-5.

The rest of the top ten also went 5-5:  Starting at 2nd, its Tim "The Big" Wasyluka... David "What Tha" Tuck... Tad "The Dynasty" Roose... Bradley "Pinky the Wisest" Pinky... Garrison "Pride of Hinesville" Ryfun... Hurricane Rhett... Jonny Oz... and Danny P... and bringing up the Top 10 rear, Tyler "SPSBotDFC" Campbell, at 4-6.

Also finishing
4-6: Brad "The Bald One" Ashby... Young Garrett... The Hawbaker... Jacob "Pinky the Pinky" Pinky... Matthew "Pinky the Eldest" Pinky... Chris Croyle... Lil Stevie Ray... Trey "The Answer" Cartledge... Zack "The Attack" Graves... 

3-7: Yours Truly... Big Tom J... Brad "Lawdawg" Latta... Mark "The Mighty" Gainey... Eddy Jr... DMO... Drew // Morris... Mitchell "Pinky the Youngest" Pinky... Big Eddy... Drew "Grassman" Warren... Jeni Ernst... Wook Fu... Tommy "Highlander" McLeod
