Playoff Picture

Once the stage was almost set, Hoppa remembered that the playoffs had been expanded this season and have a new format. Not only that, but after recording the last episode of Lecture Hall, Hoppa realized he didn’t ask the right questions regarding the playoff matchups because the old format where the lowest remaining seed plays the highest remaining seed in the Divisional Round is still in effect. Keep that in mind when taking a look at Shooter and Big Hoppa’s playoff picks!

Season Awards

Not only did the fellas go through the grueling task of giving each team a record, then putting it into a playoff scenario, but they also did a couple of the big awards for the season! Here’s what they came up with-

Offensive Player of the Year: Hoppa- Aaron Rodgers Shooter- Quenton Nelson
