The most unlikely champions in Larkspur Bowl History are Champions nonetheless: the Mar-A-Lago Treason became the first team to make the playoffs with a losing record, then won three in a row to take home the Silver Chalice. Their record was a misnomer all along- the team was third in points for this season, led by QB Josh Allen, RB Derrick Henry, and rookie cornerback Sauce Gardner.
The team's receiving corps provided volatile production through the season but showed up when the games mattered most- Tyler Lockett and Evan Engram put up double digit point totals throughout the essential week, while a mix-and-match defense did enough to get things done, with veteran linebacker Christian Kirksey proving a difference maker.
Carmel also made a Cinderella run, but there could only be one champion. The Rudy Tuesdays's first ever playoff appearance came within twelve points of glory after stat corrections, as Austin Ekeler and Micah Parsons come up just a little short this year.
In the consolation bracket, HCM City has secured the top overall pick in the LBXV Draft.
Here's the full order of things:
- HCM CITY
- PHOENIX
- SAVANNAH
- DEPUTY
- OHIO
- SOUTH PARK
- BINGHAMTON
- PAWNEE
- MANITOBA
- PHILADELPHIA
- HILL VALLEY
- NEW JERSEY
- CARMEL
- MAR-A-LAGO
I intend to do a season retrospective for each team to make up for the lack of coverage this year, but it may be too ambitious. Additionally, we're going to, at some point, vote on some new quirks to the league to spice things up in year fifteen. STAY TUNED!
