Brackets have been up for a while, but I guess everybody's been on vacation so I'll get the ball rolling. Based on last years model, it looks like we'll have at least the top 2 from each bracket advance to round 2. Round 2 will have 8 brackets with 4 teams each for a total of 32 teams. Top 2 teams of round 2 will advance to final 16 single elimination games.
We have 11 brackets, and if top 2 advance, we'll need another 10 teams for round 2. Not sure where those teams will come from, but my guess is they may be wildcards. With no DA, no ECNL (at least there were no ECNL teams last year), and no apparent teams receiving bye's (all the top teams in SCDSL, DPL, & CSL are included in round 1 brackets), I don't see where those other 10 teams can come from other than wildcards. For those in the know, please fill us in.
Quick Hits:
Big props to: Fram Ferren, UIFC Venom, United L.A., BYSC Corona, CDA Slammers FC HB, CDA Slammers FC Orange - Esparza, Arsenal West ECNL II, Arsenal FC South ECNL II.
All Silver Elite or Flight 2 teams electing to play National Cup instead of Presidents.
Wait a Minute: Arsenal West ECNL II, Arsenal FC South ECNL II. hmm.
Thumbs Down to: 1) SoCal Academy Chavez, CSL Gold and winners of league cup playing Presidents instead of National Cup. 2) Cal South for using CRL standings to seed top teams when games were last played in August. Yes, I know its in the rules, but its still lazy imo.
Where Are You?: Notts Forest Red, no league cup (understandable based on travel), but no State Cup???
Should be Here: Anaheim Surf - Vasquez, your sister team Anaheim Surf White - Martinez is playing National Cup and they finished 6th in Flight 1 Europa while you finished 2nd.
Who Are You?: United FC 04 Black, couldn't find you anywhere, what league do you play in?
