In the first part of our semi-finals coverage, the Hurricanes hold a two point edge over Runs N Throses, Runs N Throses has no more opportunity to score points while Hurricanes still have Westbrook to pile on with – only something disastrous, like Brian being caught behind the line on his first 2 carries for -10 yards and then fumbling and never returning to the game can change this outcome and prevent Hurricanes from advancing to Fantasy Bowl XI….

In the UO/Cows matchup, the Cows hold only a nine point edge in South Park Stadium. The game will be won or lost for Eric’s team on the leg of David Akers. Here are the statistical scenarios to watch:

David is averaging 8.5 points a game….but he has only hit double digits 4 times…and the Browns have given up an average of 6.4 per game to the opposing kicker….they have only given up 9 or more to the kicker in 2 games this year – to the Ravens and Broncos – and both were at home…

The over/under on the game tonight is 39 with Philly favored by 14…this is a mathematical outcome of 27-12 in favor of Philly….that score would typically mean 3 extra points and 2 field goals for the kicker = 9 points….

Nine points would force us into a tie breaker situation….the first tie break is total TD’s scored by the starters – currently the Cows hold that edge 5-4 due to the BRILLIANT decision by the Bills coaching staff to try and throw with the lead in the game from inside their own 20 while Lynch was averaging 6.0 yards a carry on the day resulting in a sack and fumble recovery TD for the Cows defense…..

However since we never leave any stone unturned here…..If Akers were to THROW a TD, hit two extra points, and then a field goal – he could still hit nine points and force the tie break process….both teams would be tied with 5 TDs apiece for the starters, and the next tie breaker would be total score of the bench players on the roster – Grandmasters would then take the victory due to a huge game by Dallas Clark otherwise wasted on the UO bench….

Temperature is currently dropping in Philly with an estimated game time temperature in the low 50’s, 70% chance of showers, and wind gusts nearing 26mph….
