Championship Matchup Set

Published: Dec 23, 2020

Don ends Sean Taylor's Ashes' 17 year playoff losing streak as he defeats the Crusaders, 55-38, to earn his first trip to the Championship.  Drew Brees (QB-NO) returned from his injury to post 18 points.  For the STA it is their first playoff victory since 2003 also over the Crusaders, and only their fourth ever.  It also ends a six game post-season (counting Toilet Bowls) losing streak.  The Crusaders now have their own six game playoff losing streak.  Their last win came against the STA franchise in the first round of 2011 (then called the Ravaging Camel Clutch).  Don gets a chance to win his and the franchise's first title week.

In the other playoff game the Amish Electricians send the MeggaMen home with a 51-34 victory.  Lamar Jackson (QB-BAL) finally earned his trade value scoring 26 in a critical game, backed up with a pair of 22s from David Montgomery (RB-CHI) and Calvin Ridley (WR-ATL).  The MeggaMen now have a three game playoff losing streak, the longest in team history.  They haven't made the title game in four years, also the longest in team history.  The Amish advance to their 8th title game.

The Toilet Bowl featured the British Bulldogs and the Gallic Warriors.  The game was close and both teams scored pretty good scores, that if they had been able to do all season, they might not have been in the Toilet Bowl.  The Bulldogs emerged victorious, 60-56, to win their third Toilet Bowl and claim the number 1 pick.  The Gallic Warriors are elgible to have their team renamed next season.
