Article Data Imported from Previous NDL SiteNDL Cup Coverage: Succulent 16
Article By: 
Succulent. A word to decribe juicy, delicious, and beautiful.
Sweet 16? anything can be sweet, but Succulent takes it to a whole nother level. These 16 teams have taken it there. Lets take a Look at the 8 matchups we have; shall we?
The dicks who played before I could do the preview
Hey assholes, I am not even late this time, I mean, the Round of 16 opened up what? last night? You couldn't wait 12 hours for me to get to this?
Your punishment is no cup coverage this week, try thinking about others next time. I mean I expected this from Weasel and Biffy, but 6ft? deedub?
Alabama 27
Clemson 3
Michigan State 23
Nebraska 13
Nebraska nation breathes a sigh of relief as 6ftdeep goes down, the dream of him losing the Huskers is still alive.
The thanks for playing but your time has come unless you get a sim win
Ohio State at Arkansas State
I really have no idea how the Red Wolves are still here. They have a replacement coach who is thrust into a Sweet 16 matchup vs Ohio State. Yes I could look at leaguedaddy to find out how he did it, but that site is blocked at work so that option is out. Not that it is really needed. His cup run probably went something like this... Scrub team, bye, sim; sim, bye, scrub; scrub, sim, sim.... etc. Yeah, something along those lines. Problem is that buckeye always plays on time annnnnnnd will trash tpev and Arkansas State. This one is over by half.
SMU at LSU
Brett is on fire, he is 6-0 at SMU and is thinking about a BCS bowl. You match him up against nearly anyone else outside of Big Mike, Walker and Shel and he has a shot at winning. The problem is that he not only drew Shel and LSU, but is on the road. I have played Shel and LSU on the road with a shitty team, he can throw 5 picks in the game to your zero and he will still win by double digits, yes it is that bad, so no, SMU is done. So long Cinderella.
The heavy dogs
I'm talking heavy bikes son!
Arkansas at Northwestern
Hoos and Steamrollr, shame. You guys are vets and should have more than 1 game under your belt at this point in the season. The only reason I am calling Northwestern a heavy dog is that Arkansas is ranked #5 and 1-0 while Hoos stands at 0-1. I used up my yearly quota for Hoos gay jokes last week, so I am done.
Oklahoma State at Miami (FL)
Chusker started strong in the season and is 4-0 in non-con but decided to suck in the Big 12. Dropped to 0-3 in the Big 12 and in all likelihood will be fighting for his bowl life near the end of the season. His opponent is Big Mike, on the road. BM is firing on all cylinders this season and should take this one easily at home.
Southern Cal at Notre Dame
Walker has a #1 ranking at USC and may not have to deal with Shel in the NDL Championship unless everyone else loses.
Remember NDL Law #3 1 loss Shel trumps all other 1 loss teams regardless of any other factors. This has been a proven fact in years past, deal with it. USC should make quick work of Notre Dame, even on the road, if this game gets played. With WJ out soon, this one might have sim written on it.
The only actual good matchup of the Succulent 16
Houston at Auburn
With only 16 teams left in the cup, you expect some awesome matchups. Sadly we didn't get them this year. All are likely to be blowouts and this is really the only game that should be decided by single digits. Randawg is still Randawg at Houston and he knows that team. Huskerskev is at Auburn but this isn't real life Auburn, this is EA's preseason expectations of Auburn.... ie not that good. Both already have losses in league, but this is a pretty even match up. Expect a shootout, mostly because that is what Houston and Auburn do. I am picking Houston though, because they are home in a tight one.
What we have to look forward to in the Enticing Eight
My predictions are used here.
Michigan State vs. Auburn/Houston
A quality matchup that does the final 8 proud, regardless of who the Spartans play
Arkansas vs. Ohio State
SEC vs. Big 10, can't ask for more
LSU vs. Miami (FL)
The big game. Shel basically got a walkover to this one though
Alabama vs. USC
Another great matchup, should be fun
