Ladies and Gentlemen of the TSL Universe, after eight long, mostly rain-soaked weeks, we’ve finally arrived at the reason you’re all here: The Race For Social Co-Ed Touch Football Immortality. After months and months of team building, convincing someone to leave their team for yours because they’re the “missing piece” that your squad has been searching for, practicing, begging for your team fees, finding subs, bothering Jeff Krol/Garrett/Brent with SOMETHING, reading articles, listening to the podcast, oh, and playing football that didn’t get rained out (and some games that should’ve been) this Saturday begins the two week journey that all of that other stuff was meant for. 

 

On Saturday, June 20th in the Year of Our Lord 2026, 45 of the TSL’s 54 teams will go to war for the seven championships that will be earned over the next two weeks. Yes, I said 7, you’re forgetting Breakfast Club. Of the teams that will not be playing this week, six of them have bye weeks straight to Championship Saturday (Legends, Can’t Touch This, Jabronies, Frodo Swaggins, TMA, and Intentional Clowning), 2 of them already lost in Breakfast Club because those playoffs started last weekend (Steph Infection, Megoonsta’s), and one team already forfeit because some time during the season they collectively realized that they’re not very good at football at all, and they’re better off doing something more their speed like scrapbooking (SBG). Not everyone is cut out for the world of Social Co-Ed Touch Football. It happens. 

 

Yes, Playoff Saturday is here, and with it comes one of the absolute best days of the year in sports. There will be blowouts, there will be upsets nobody saw coming, there might even be overtime games. There will be teams absolutely shocked they aren’t playing on Championship Saturday. There will be excuses. There will be blood. Teams that looked downtrodden all season will finally put it all together when it matters. Teams that looked unbeatable all season will trip on their faces wondering what went wrong. It is much more rare for Playoff Saturday to have all of the top seeds advance than it is to have chaos. There will be a 6th or 7th seeded team (OR EVEN LOWER) playing next week, most likely. 

 

The only thing we truly don’t know is who the Social Co-Ed Touch Football Gods will be smiling on, and whose dreams they will choose to crush. And that’s the fun of it all, of course. Nothing is more fun for me than sitting in my rocking chair on my deck at my log cabin in Des Moines, Iowa as the texts start to roll in. “SO AND SO JUST UPSET WHATSTHEIRFACES!”, “Have I got a story for you!”, “B’S BROTHER BE PRAISED!!, and so on. Every hour of Playoff Saturday will have its own twists and turns as The Race For Social Co-Ed Touch Football Immortality unfolds in front of your very eyes. May the odds be ever in your favor. 

(The following championship odds and simulations were run by B's Brother in Madden '26 for us, 10,000 times. All rankings are based on the division, except, of course, for the super secret Topper TSL Ranking system only he knows about.)

 

D1:

CHAMPIONSHIP ODDS

CONTENDERS:
Legends — 2-1
The Malones — 3-1

A STEP BEHIND:
Sticky Bandits — 6-1
Freeballers — 12-1
Eyes Downtown — 18-1

PRETENDERS:
What a Dump — 40-1
Mavericks — 50-1

TIMES WON IN 10,000 B'S BROTHER MADDEN SIMULATIONS:
Legends — 4,642
The Malones — 4,098
Sticky Bandits — 975
Freeballers — 219
Eyes Downtown — 58
Mavericks — 7
What a Dump — 1

THE STORY: The Legends did what the Legends always do, running the table at 8-0 and reminding everyone why they're the gold standard. But the real story of D1 was the Malones' final month, as they flipped a switch and started torching everyone in sight, hanging 50, 61, and 76 in their last three games to potentially set up the title clash everyone's been waiting for. Sticky Bandits hung tough all year and stayed in the 2-seed mix until the final whistle. Eyes Downtown will feel like the one that got away, pulling off the upset of the Malones in Week 7 before fading, and the Freeballers had their moments. What a Dump finally found a win after a long season in the wilderness, and the Mavericks, despite an 0-fer, played one of the hardest schedules in the division and were closer than the record shows.

THIS WEEK'S GAMES

 

The Malones tore through the season, leaving an absolute path of destruction in their wake. They’re the newest shiny play thing to pop up to attempt to defeat the Legends, but they have to get there first. Nothing is guaranteed, and now they get a Mavericks team in the first round of the playoffs that arguably have nothing to lose, which makes them dangerous. It can be argued that the Mavs deserved a better fate than an 0-8 season, but sometimes that’s just the way the cookie crumbles. What matters the most now is that everyone is 0-0, and let’s not forget that the Mavs have had The Malones number in the past. This won’t be easy for The Malones, and if they look past the Mavs, they might not even be playing next weekend. This feels as good a time as any to remind the TSL that the Mavs were left for dead as a #7 seed last season, and ended up pulling off quite the dramatic OT win to move on to Championship Saturday. There’s a reason they’re in D1.  THE MALONES BY 7

 

 

It was simply a lost season for What A Dump, as roster/attendance issues surely caused some problems for them. The talent is there, but they seem unable to really get it together. Their prize? A 1-7 season that sees them as heavy underdogs to a Sticky Bandits team that had a blip or two along the way this season, but still should be taken seriously as a title contender, even if they haven’t been as flashy as the Legends or Malones. STICKY BANDITS BY 14

Now we’re talking. While the other two D1 playoff games leave a lot to be desired in terms of a close matchup, the 4v5 matchup here does not disappoint at all. The story lines are everywhere here: The Freeballers, perennial doormats of D1, finally get a QB in Buddy Lee after cycling through more quarterbacks than the Cleveland Browns. In one season, Buddy has made the Freeballers less of a D1 joke than they ever have been, and if you squint hard enough, you can see a path that leads them to a D1 title. They take on Eyes Downtown, the former giants of D1, who have rebuilt the roster in hopes of restoring former glory. However, there are many questions floating around the league about them like if they’re overrated, or if Bobby is even the best QB on the roster for the job anymore with Bridget’s emergence. It’s amazing to think that one of these franchises won’t be playing on Championship Saturday. At the end of the day though, even if you think FB have the advantage at QB here, they don’t have it anywhere else. Experience wins out. EYES DOWNTOWN BY 2

 

D2:

CHAMPIONSHIP ODDS

CONTENDERS:
Can't Touch This — 2-1
Jabronies — 5-1
Frodo Swaggins — 7-1

PRETENDERS:
D-Generation XYZ — 20-1
Buffalo Vice — 30-1

TIMES WON IN 10,000 B'S BROTHER MADDEN SIMULATIONS:
Can't Touch This — 7,423
Jabronies — 1,494
Frodo Swaggins — 952
D-Generation XYZ — 97
Buffalo Vice — 34

THE STORY: Can't Touch This went wire to wire as the class of the division, finishing 7-0-1 and never tasting a loss all season. The Jabronies were the steady second fiddle, racking up wins and locking down a bye, while Frodo Swaggins spent the year as the league's resident wild card where they’re capable of dropping 60 one week and surviving a one-point thriller the next, finishing strong enough to grab the 3 seed they essentially put on the line last week for no reason other than fun. That Garrett, what a guy. The bottom of the division belonged to Buffalo Vice and D-Generation XYZ, who battled injuries and tough luck all year as they settled in. The two will settle it head-to-head on Playoff Saturday for the right to take a crack at the juggernaut. Usually, that’s a pretty bad reward, but given the playoff history of CTT, it might be a pass to the finals.

 

THIS WEEK'S GAMES

This 4v5 matchup might not have the pedigree that the D1 battle does, but we’ve got two teams here that will absolutely have a doozy between the two of them. Neither team had the season they hoped for, but they’re also in a division with some crazy talent, where arguably the other 3 teams should be playing in D1. They’ve split the season series, and they’re quite evenly matched. Vice has the QB nod, and it’s incredibly rare for me to say this to a team with Katie Keller on it, but they have the upperhand with girls too. This one is going to come down to defense, and DXYZ has the advantage here. D-GENERATION XYZ BY 6.

D3:

CHAMPIONSHIP ODDS

CONTENDERS:
ISH — 2-1
Bullet Club — 4-1
BQI — 6-1

WOULDN'T BE SHOCKING:
Let's Get Reccked — 10-1
Grey Hair - Don't Care — 14-1
Cunning Stunts — 20-1

WANDERERS:
Wanderers — 30-1

PRACTICE SQUAD:
Practice Squad — 60-1

PRETENDERS:
Two Tuddies — 80-1

TIMES WON IN 10,000 B'S BROTHER MADDEN SIMULATIONS:
ISH — 4,323
Bullet Club — 3,301
BQI — 1,362
Let's Get Reccked — 498
Grey Hair - Don't Care — 250
Cunning Stunts — 148
Wanderers — 104
Practice Squad — 12
Two Tuddies — 2

THE STORY: ISH took the top seed with a 7-0-1 campaign, but D3 was a knife fight at the top all year. Bullet Club went 6-2 with a monster point differential and has every right to feel like a co-favorite, while BQI grabbed the 2-seed on the strength of a head-to-head win over Bullet Club and a stingy defense. The middle of this division was a blender as Grey Hair, Let's Get Reccked, and Cunning Stunts all took turns looking dangerous, with the Stunts' two ties hinting at a team tougher than its seed. And then there were the Wanderers, the season's great heartbreak story: five straight one-score losses before finally breaking through with a 13-point win in Week 8 to send themselves into the playoffs on a high note. Practice Squad and Two Tuddies fought to the end in a brutal division, as they struggled to get into a rhythm with newer rosters, and there were some injury issues as well.

 

THIS WEEK'S GAMES

ROUND ONE

 

Back in April, both of these teams had visions of champagne dreams and caviar wishes as they could see themselves waltzing away with a D3 championship. Back in May, they could only hope to maybe pick up a win to turn the season around. And now in June, the fastest either of them have run all year is to the bus to get out of this nightmare season. The Tud Buds started off great, beating the Wanderers (before we realized they were a husk of their former selves) and they looked to be taking D3 by storm as they did in D4. They haven’t won since, albeit being close a few times. The Squad just couldn’t get on the same page this season, and their only win was because Jeremy Burr dusted off the ol’ golden arm and heroically stepped in for B for a game, against the Tuddies of course. So what happens here? The Tuddies sound defeated, tripping on excuses. Practice Squad might be blackmailing Kenny to play one more game. But let’s face it, this game goes through one thing and one thing only: 

 

Playoff B. 

 

The man has done it time and time again. He’s probably been locked in since Sunday. If you don’t think he’s internally furious that the Squad’s only win this season was without him, you’ve got another thing coming. Playoff B is the 2nd best Jets QB of all time without playing a single down. He will find a way and he will will this team to victory here. PRACTICE SQUAD BY 14

 

ROUND 2:

Playoff B’s gift for wiping out the Tud Buds? ISH. No matter the name, the maroon and gold have been a top D3 team and this season was no different. They have the division’s best offense and 2nd best defense. Andrew Kicak might pretend to be a villain but he’s the first one to tout his lesser known players and their talents. Buddy Lee is a D1 QB of the Year contender, so of course he’s dunking on D3. Everyone knows their role and they’re playing as a team. They’re a well oiled machine, and they give off the vibes that they’re going to bring home the D3 title this season, which of course probably means they won’t, but they’ll be a hell of a tough out. ISH BY 17

 

BQI had a pretty seamless transition from D5 to D3 this season, ending up a Top 10 TSL team thanks to a division best defense, growth from Bridget in the QB position, Bobby offering his wisdom, and Jon Tirado creating that family-like atmosphere that gets people playing for each other. Now they get the Wanderers, coming off of the worst season in Wanderers history, and yet they still remain scary. Frank (even with all of his “quirks”) is still a brilliant QB, and Sal is still a top player in the division. If they get hot? Who knows what could happen. They only lost by 6 to BQI this season, and they actually scored the second most points that BQI has allowed all year. If I’m the Wanderers, I have to be feeling pretty good here. They’re going to scare BQI. If the Wanderers can make an early play or two, look out. WANDERERS BY 2

 

The D3 matchups just keep getting better and better. Bullet Club finds themselves in the same position they’re usually in: Top 3 in the standings with a weird loss or two, title contender, but not the top contender. Their only two losses have come against the two teams ahead of them in the standings: ISH and BQI. They score a good amount of points and they play good defense. They handled the Stunts pretty well a couple of weeks ago. And none of that matters now. The Stunts are superstars, and a good chunk of them won’t have to worry about any other games this weekend as the Legends have a bye. There is a pretty clear path to a Stunts win, especially if Bullet Club underestimates them after that win this season. If that happens, someone better protect the garbage cans. I don’t think it will though. BULLET CLUB BY 9

 

These two teams match up well with similar stats, but they couldn’t be more opposite otherwise. LGR is incredibly talented, but they just give off the vibe that they don’t really care enough and they never seem locked in. Grey Hair Don’t Care, meanwhile, feels like they’re slightly less talented overall, BUT they care big time. I’d go straight to the argument that GHDC has the better QB in Dave Eickhoff (And the QB Power Rankings agree! Check them out!) but LGR also dominated the Week 4 matchup. I think if you ran this game alone 10,000 times you’d end up at 5,000-5,000. I expect LGR to make one more big play on defense to walk out with a win, and if we end up having an overtime game, this feels like it. LET’S GET RECCKED BY 2

Flying Balls — 2

THE STORY: The deepest division in the league produced the best three-team race of the season. Mike's Detailing claimed the top seed with their Week 7 win, becoming the only team to beat Puckett this season (so far). Puckett answered the only way they know how, blanking the next opponent and finishing with the best point differential in the entire league. Coochie Monsters were right in the thick of it but lost to both Mike’s and Puckett, and the Tater Tots were the team nobody wanted to see coming almost scoring at will. From the PowerPuff Girls and NSS down through a gritty Cobblestone and a Flying Balls team that found its first win late, this division had no easy nights.

THIS WEEK'S GAMES

ROUND ONE

 

A good ol’ fashioned Balls battle to get D4 started off right. Balls Deep didn’t have a fantastic start to their foray into D4, but they definitely proved they belong a bit more than their Balls counterparts did after leaping up from D6. Balls Deep finished 3-5, only beating the other Round One squads, but you just know they learned a lot from this season and should be improved in the fall. Flying Balls might’ve been the “season from hell” team for Spring 2026 after flying onto the TSL scene a season ago. They’ve had a heck of a trying season, but what better way to salvage it than with a playoff win? It’s a nice thought anyway. BALLS DEEP BY 10

 

Cobblestone is in the middle of another trying season where Darryl Carr QB Superstar continues to be let down by his “washed up charity projects” like John Langley and Garrett Beesing. However, Cobblestone DID just beat SMYTDs a week ago rather easily, and they still had the 2nd hardest schedule in D4, which means that perhaps they’re a sleeping giant of sorts. SMYTDs did NOT have a great go of it all to get started, but things got slightly better as the season went on. It wasn’t perfect, no, but they’re officially the greatest Show Me Your TDs team of all time! Anyway, COBBLESTONE BY 10

 

ROUND TWO

 

In Week 5 of this season, Cobblestone gave us the most confusing and “How The Hell Did That Happen?” moment of the year when they shut out Mike’s Detailing 14-0. That’s not a typo, Jeff Krol has promised me that this actually happened. While I’m sure the weather had something to do with it, it still boggles the human mind. There’s an argument to be had that if they win this game, it’ll be the biggest upset in TSL history, especially because they already won, so MD is already looking for revenge, or at the very least won’t take them lightly. Mike’s Detailing (tell them The Godfather sent you for 10% off!) has been nothing short of terrific besides that Cobblestone game they were in a coma for. The TSL is a better place when Darryl plays on Championship Saturday with a shot at the title. It’s not going to be a better place this year. MIKE’S DETAILING BY 17

 

 

Puckett had one slip up in an amazing season when they lost to Mike’s Detailing a few weeks ago. They smothered teams on defense, and put up a lot of points too. They just beat Balls Deep last weekend rather easily. They’re arguably pound for pound the best team in the division. Balls Deep is going to give them a better game than they did last week, but still fall short of the goal. PUCKETT BY 11

 

For those of you looking for the best game of the day, this might be it. These two teams had a 37-36 thriller a month ago, and there’s nothing that suggests that we couldn’t see that again here. This game features two of the top 3 offenses in the division, so we’re in for a treat. The Tots have scored oodles of points, and they’ve done so while being saddled with the toughest schedule in D4. Meanwhile the Coochie Monsters have been top notch on both sides of the ball, only losing by 1 to Mike’s Detailing and 3 to Puckett. They’re a battle tested, smart group, and to be honest I think they’re getting a little lost in the shuffle, which is maybe what they want to be. It’s a shame one of these teams have to lose this week. COOCHIE MONSTERS BY 1

 

PowerPuff Girls vs Not So Sticky. What a fantastic Playoff Saturday matchup! You’d be hard pressed to find two more evenly matched teams. They even tied in the only game they’ve played this year! The PPG might not be the absolute murderers they can be when they’re at full strength this season, but this iteration has more than held their own. Not So Sticky has played their game all year, like they always do. Low scoring games where they squeak out a couple of wins plus random unforeseen blowout wins and losses too. They’re always a lot of fun to watch, and this game won’t be any different. I’ve gone back and forth on this one for a while now. NOT SO STICKY BY 3

SBG — 0

THE STORY: The biggest division in the league saved its best story for last. Blitzkrieg and Call the Doctor both finished 7-1 and grabbed the top two seeds with rock-solid seasons, but the team everyone's talking about heading into the playoffs is the Birds of War. After a slow-ish start, the Birds caught fire and never cooled down, ripping off 58, 48, 42, and a 36-point shutout of Blitzkrieg to close the year as the hottest team in the entire league. The Blue Ballers and their league-best offense looked unstoppable for stretches before a brutal Week 7, including a shocking loss to Mo' Chicken, who authored the upset of the season. From the middle tier down, D5 was a survival contest, with the 716ers backing into a seed and a slew of teams scrapping through a gauntlet schedule.

THIS WEEK'S GAMES

ROUND ONE

 

Mo’ Chicken has had quite the year, and after some rainouts, and some forfeits, they might be a little bit overrated here as we enter the playoffs. It isn’t completely fair to them as they can only play the schedule they’re given, so you’d have to assume they’ll be looking to prove themselves as “the real deal” this week. They get a Pit Harade team who has yet to win a game but also has a point differential better as a 10 seed than the 7 seed they’re playing. Also PH had a very tough schedule which can only help them in this game. They did have close losses against Birds of War and the Wet Bandits, and perhaps they should have a win or two. PIT HARADE BY 8

 

Here we have the rare “First meeting of the season” is in the playoffs matchup. The Wet Bandits came into the league as fresh faced newcomers and proceeded to rattle off a few wins out of the gate. The rest of the year had it’s ups and downs, as evidenced by the fact that they’re playing in the Round One matchup. They also boast a pretty weak offense, having relied on defense to win some games. The McMuffins have been all over the place in a down year for the franchise, and while their offense is slightly better than the Bandits, their defense is kind of “Brutal”. I expect a close matchup until one team pulls away late. WET BANDITS BY 7

 

ROUND TWO

 

The Wet Bandits reward for winning the 8/9 matchup? Blitzkrieg, which up until a week ago was more fear inspiring before the Birds of War came to town. BK still handled the Bandits fairly easily in their own matchup in Week 6, as their top ranked defense held the Bandits to just two measly TDs as they cruised to a win. Blitzkrieg may have been shook last week, but not enough to fall here. BLITZKRIEG BY 19

 

Call The Doctor absolutely crushed it in their first season in D5, going 7-1, having a top 2 defense, and a top 4 offense. Even with allegedly having some brand new players from the start, Eickhoff has really rounded his crew into form as the Playoffs arrive. They are indeed a bit of a dark horse to win this title, but they’re still in the picture. The ride for Pit Harade more than likely ends here. CALL THE DOCTOR BY 13

 

Whatever happened to the Birds of War in Week 4 to lose to CFB has been more than adjusted for it seems. BOW is scoring 40 a game while allowing less than 20 on defense, and are arguably the hottest team not just in D5, but in the entire TSL. Now they get a chance to get a win back over CFB? Look out. Come From Behind, of course, has been here before. They’ve played and beaten hotter, better teams than BOW before. If they just go out and play the same game some of them have been playing since the late 1960’s, they’ll be just fine. And if they don’t? They’ll still be at the bar Championship Saturday game or not. BIRDS OF WAR BY 18

 

The Blue Ballers were on pace to set the modern day scoring record for the TSL, and then the calendar turned to June, and they lost 2 games and forfeit another. Just like that, they’re the 4 seed and people are sending emails wondering whether or not to send flowers. I’m choosing to believe the first 5 games were more of the norm than the last three. There’s a pretty clear line of demarcation in this division, and it’s right here. The 716ers had a really good first season to build on. They’re in the middle of the pack on both sides of the ball, and they hung tough with Blitzkrieg and Call The Doctor. It’s a very, very good season to build off of. BLUE BALLERS BY 12

TMA — 4,631
Intentional Clowning — 2,148
Irish Giants — 1,735
Select — 955
Raw Milkers — 505
Sticky Laces — 26

THE STORY: Division 6 spent most of the season looking like Intentional Clowning's to lose — until the final stretch flipped it on its head. TMA saved their best for last, capped by a 34-6 demolition of Intentional Clowning in Week 7 that vaulted them to the 1-seed and the bye. IC still claimed the 2-seed and a bye of their own, but the Irish Giants were the story underneath, knocking off IC to cost them the top spot and announcing themselves as the team nobody wants to draw. Select and Raw Milkers each had their moments in a tightly-bunched middle, with Select's late shutout of the Milkers a season highlight. Sticky Laces battled through a tough year but punched their playoff ticket like everyone else — because in this league, everybody gets a shot at immortality.

 

THIS WEEK'S GAMES

 

The Sticky Laces started off the season 2-2 with two one point losses. At 4-0 they’re the talk of the town. However, we would’ve spent the weeks after that wondering what went wrong. The Laces forgot how to score and how to play defense and they came crashing down to Earth. Meanwhile the Irish Giants remained incredibly consistent. They’re in just about every game, they beat Intentional Clowning, barely lost to them, and hung with TMA. They’re arguably as good of a shot to win it all as anyone else. This should be easy for them, provided they don’t play like they’ve already won the game. IRISH GIANTS BY 10

Select pulled off the rare “scored exactly as many points as we allowed in the the season” move which was pretty cool. Their two games with the Milkers tells the story of their season. Close but no cigar in the beginning of the year, but really coming on at the end of it. The Milkers have had some lopsided scores and continue to be inconsistent overall. That means that trying to gauge what they’re going to do is damn near impossible. But you know what you’re getting with Select. SELECT BY 3

FIVE QUESTIONS FOR SATURDAY: 

 

 

• Can you rank the #1 seeds from most vulnerable to least? Sure! That won’t cause any issues. Blitzkrieg, ISH, Mike’s Detailing, TMA, Legends, Can’t Touch This. 

 

 

 

• If you can’t choose any #1 seeds to win their divisions, who are you taking? The Malones, Frodo Swaggins, Bullet Club, Coochie Monsters, Birds of War, and Irish Giants. 

 

 

 

• Which low seed is most likely to still be playing on Championship Saturday? The 7th seeded Wanderers have the best shot at it. 

 

 

 

• Who has the most momentum coming into the playoffs in each division? That’s a fun one. I think it’s The Malones, Can’t Touch This, Bullet Club, Mike’s Detailing, Birds Of War, and TMA. 

 

 

 

• What is the one game you’d watch if you could only choose one? The answer has to be Coochie Monsters vs Tater Tots. That will be a fire fight. 

 

TEN FINAL THOUGHTS FOR SATURDAY

 

-The weather is going to be hopefully perfect for you in Buffalo, just about 70 degrees and mostly sunny, although there might be a little bit of rain too, which is poetic given how the season has gone. 

 

-Breakfast Club predictions: 

 

• On A Rampaige 36, Water Under The Bridget 34

• Total CARnage 30, Fittsmagic 27

 

 

-I know that it’s the playoffs, but DON’T BE DICKS TO THE REFS. They have been instructed to kick you out of the game if they deem you to be a nuisance. Don’t put them in that situation. 

 

-Games of the Day

10:00 - Birds Of War vs Come From Behind

11:00 - Coochie Monsters vs Tater Tots

12:00 - The Malones vs Mavericks

1:00 - Freeballers vs Eyes Downtown

2:00 - PowerPuff Girls vs Not So Sticky

3:00 - Grey Hair Don’t Care vs Let’s Get Reccked

 

-Games absolutely will start ON TIME, and maybe even early if that can somehow happen. With the threat of overtime looming and backing up certain fields throughout the day, the league needs to keep things moving smoothly. 

-All of this talk about how hot Birds of War have been, and they’re just going to end up losing to Come From Behind anyway. 

 

-The Blue Ballers are going to show us that the last two weeks were a fluke

 

-Can’t Touch This is going to look pretty good in D1 next season. They can’t blow it again, right?
