Mike Says: This will be New Deals first shot at a title so it will be good to see them here. The Punchers will be very tough to beat though. We caught a little slack over picking them over Refugio but they came through. The Puncher running game will be too hard to stop. It will be a great game. The Punchers win their 2nd Championship in their 3rd title game 30-27.
Chris Says: I have been a Puncher fan for years. There is something special about the atmosphere at the Mason Puncherdome that has made it one of my favorite places to watch a football game. They are playing at Jerry's World this time, so who wins? I not only like the Punchers as a team but I have a personal connection with a couple of the players on the team... these are guys I have known since working with them in pee wee football. Add that to the fact that I haven't seen Gruver play a down this year and it is obvious who I am going to pick. The Punchers take this one in convincing fashion.
