Its post season week people! Pretty psyched for this weekend. Ranger Picks continue to have a strong showing. Although we collected all the post season picks, I’m only going to cover the conference semi finals (or quarter finals as we call them here at ranger picks HQ). There’s definately some similarity in both 1v4 matches and both 2v3 matches. Roughly 90% of rangers picked the number 1 seed in both conferences to be successful in their quarter finals, compared to about 60% for the number 2 seed.

How did our regular season top pickers pick? There’s a pattern for sure with the 2 number 1 seeds being picked. Some disagreement over CHI/NOLA, but only Beaver Paw is backing Seattle from this crew.

Beaver Paw:  NEFJ, HOU, CHI, SEA
Ranger Horkan: NEFJ, HOU, NOLA, SD
Bozo6: NEFJ, HOU, CHI, SD
Dingo: NEFJ, HOU, NOLA, SD
MLR Stats: NEFJ, HOU, CHI, SD

The 2023 OG pickers have a bit more confidence in Seattle with only Bozo6 and Ranger John going for SD. No surprise with Rugby Morning picking OGDC of course, but a continued clean sweep for Houston.

Bozo6:  NEFJ,  HOU, CHI, SD
Freejack fitzy: NEFJ, HOU, CHI, SEA
Ranger John: NEFJ, HOU, CHI, SD
Ranger Bunny: NEFJ, HOU, NOLA, SEA
Rugby Morning: OGDC, HOU, NOLA, SEA
Ranger Payne: NEFJ, HOU, NOLA, SEA

Will a new leader emerge from the ranks? Will this come down to tie breakers? Anyone as excited as I am to find out?
