After a wild week of Playoff action the UPFL has found itself with four double digit seeds alive in the second round of the playoffs. So Cinderella is very much alive. Onto the game previews:
Matt Millen (7-6) vs. 75 years of Rebuilding (8-5)
Matt Millen knocked out the top seed last week in Brain Trust, again showing it is near impossible to go undefeated in fantasy football. Can Team Millen pull of another upset this week? They will have their hands full with 75 years who has Kurt Warner in a juicy match-up against the St. Louis Rams. Without question for Millen to have any chance this week, L.Tomlinson will need to run wild. 75 years has now become one of the favorites to win it all with Brain Trust and Desert Dogs knocked out.
Matt Millen: 115 *** 75 Years of Rebuilding: 138
The Sean Taylor Experience (7-6) vs. Statutory Defendants (9-4)
TSTE pulled off the upset over Benson’s Boys last week due to the re-emergence of Brian Westrbook, another performance like that will be needed by Westbrook to continue TSTE’s run to glory. The Defendants had to wait until Monday night to find out if they would advance and thanks to the amazing game of Steve Slaton they continue their march toward a second UPFL title. A lot will ride on the play of the RBs in this game and I like the Defendants backs a little better.
The Sean Taylor Experience: 109 *** Statutory Defendants: 126
The Foonta Banfooks (6-7) vs. Blumkins (9-4)
Can the Banfooks continue their Cinderella or will the defending champs continue to quietly march forward and complete what no one has ever done in the UPFL, and that is repeat as champs.
The Banfooks will need a much better game from Peyton Manning to expect any possible upset, another zero point game and the Banfooks should be done for the year.
The Blumkins will look to their two-headed monster at RB in Marion Barber and Reggie Bush for points, each is a bit of an injury risk but with their NFL teams fighting for playoff life, expect these two to produce this week.
The Foonta Banfooks: 115 *** Blumkins: 130
The Fighting Manx (8-5) vs. Double Lung (10-3)
The Manx rode the Steve Slaton show to victory last week and will once again look to him and the unlikely fantasy hall of famer Tyler Thigpen. It will be a tough task to take out the favorite but The Fighting Manx have the players to do it.
Double Lung enters this week as the unquestioned favorite for the remainder fo these playoffs. Solid everywhere and with Matt Cassel in a easy match-up this week solid at QB also.
The Fighting Manx: 109 *** Double Lung: 145
