Well, it's been a while since I made any kind of prediction for AUFL games, but I thought I'd end the season with a few picks for everyone. Round 1 will feature a bye, two blowouts and one interesting game. Ski Unit and Huckstables should advance easily but I expect a tight game out of B-Town (who always seems to play up in the big games) against the Untouchables. That being said, I'm going with the Untouchables to win 13-11.

In the Semi's, I'm picking Ski Unit to barely beat the Huckstables. The Huckers got some sweet talent, but Ski Unit is going to have a full squad for the first time, well, all season. That should be enough to put SU back in the Finals. On the other side of the bracket, DGW will face Untouchables in a clash of the titans...that aren't from B-Town. This game will be determined attendance. By that, I mean that if DGW can bring their ballers and Untouchables can bring theirs, it's going to be close. My head tells me not to count out the veteran Untouchables, but my gut tells me DGW will prevail.

Ski Unit makes it's glorious return to the AUFL Championship to play Godzilla. I honestly have no idea how this game is going to pan out, but I have a feeling that Ski Unit will win in overtime.

So you're 2008 AUFL champion will be...Ski Unit (honestly, what did you expect?)

Good luck to everyone this Sunday. Let's do it.
