Well, at least we made it close.... looking forward to see who wins!

The Vulcans game tying drive was stopped at the one yard line by the Reapers defense. Possibly one of the most exciting finishes in Alt Bowl History.  



With that Alt Bowl in the books we are ten years in to the Legacy Project. That means that we have some recaps headed your way! I'll be posting that shortly. 

Welcome to the AltFL Legacy Project Recap (PART 1)

This recap will cover the first ten years of our new league.  Let us begin with the division winners...

It is tough to deny that the North has been the most successful division.  They have won 7 out of 10 and 7 out of the last 8 Alt Bowls. Every division except the central has had 5 out of their 6 teams win the tile.  The teams that haven't won a division yet are New York, San Diego, Miami, Minnesota, and Kentucky.  



Now we move on to the playoffs. In the AltHL we were holding two playoff tournaments. Therefore it was easier to go deep into the playoffs.  In the AltFL it is difficult to fight your way through to the championship. I thought it would be a good success metric to keep track of teams final four appearances.  That means that a team had to win at least 1 playoff game to get there.  The team with the most Final Fours are the San Antonio Phantoms. Unfortunately they are still hunting their first championship. 



As for championships...the Alt Bowl History.

Three teams have won multiple titles, all from the North.  Shout out to Philadelphia, Carolina and Toronto. San Antonio has been to three but have nothing to show for it. #1 seeds have won the Alt Bowl three times. The #2 seed has won the Alt Bowl 4 times.  The #4 seeds have won twice and they are the lowest seeds to have won it.  That means that in order to win the Alt Bowl you need to win your division. The lowest seed to make it to the Alt Bowl were the Scorpions in Alt Bowl III.



Coming up next will be the individual awards of the first decade.

Of course we lost...... Is it bad that I thought we'd lose? I mean, it was our first time in the playoffs so the nerves would've been at an all-time high and the fact that we made it all the way to the AltBowl multiplies those nerves by 1000. Well, there's still a decade of this project left so who knows what will happen. GG Carolina.

Man, if only we had won in 2005, we could've made it 8 in a row for the North. Truly the division of death.
