One spot to fill in Arena Football Conference Finals
Georgia is tough opponent when they are on a roll. (AFL)
With one major upset in the divisional round and another almost pulled off, what happens on Monday night is certainly intriguing. Top-seeded Philadelphia scored on the last play of the game to fend off New York 49-48 as 9.5-point favorites and Grand Rapids went on a rampage to upset Chicago, who was the other top-seed, coming out of the American Conference. Georgia will have to do their best to prevent from being another team with a week off being stale, when they host Cleveland.
Grand Rapids tricky foe in Arena Football semis ARENA - Before throwing Grand Rapids under the bus as a fluky club which was fortunate to make the postseason, don’t lose sight of the fact a certain Chicago team caught fire late and galloped to an Arena Bowl championship after a mediocre regular season, just a couple of seasons ago. The Rampage are like Brett Favre rumor, gathering momentum with four wins in a row, including impressive dismantling of Arizona on the road, in low scoring 48-41 contest as two-point underdogs.
AFL Conference Semis Saturday Wagering Preview ARENA - Last week was truly a wild card round, as all four underdogs covered the spread and three of them won outright to advance to this week’s Conference semi-finals. The two upsets that occurred, being the most pronounced were Saturday’s visitors Colorado and New York. Based on recent level of play, both were given a chance to cover the pointspread, but win outright on the road, that was about as likely as Christie Brinkley’s husband cheating on her for an 18-year girl. We know how this is turned out. (FREE FoxSheet on one of Saturday’s matchups)
