Team Buckiiiits, which entered the season with extraordinarily low expectations and abysmal team chemistry, finished the regular season unbeaten after a 46-10 dismantling of shorthanded TKE on Sunday in front of a sparse crowd at the Ramsey Center.
The win moved Buckiiiits' record to 4-0, and when team captain Jeff Mayonnaise meets with intramural officials at 9 p.m. Wednesday, the team is expected to receive a high seed for its first-round playoff game. The playoffs begin Thursday.
An unnamed intramural official told OTR Sports on Sunday afternoon that teams must declare their intentions to move up a classification following an unbeaten regular season before the first game. Mayonnaise did not, and will thus have the opportunity to hand-pick the bracket and first-round playoff matchup. (Note: Teams that went 0-4 during the regular season in B league will move down a classification, the official said.)
Occasionally toying with their opponents, Buckiiiits jumped out to a 17-2 lead and forced 30-plus turnovers Sunday against the obese and athletically-challenged TKE, which dropped to 1-3.
Mayonnaise scored 12 points, Daisulci Teralcalmi added a season-high six points and Buckiiiits overcame the suspicious absence of recently-appointed coach Joshua Stein, who could not be reached for comment at press time.
OTR Sports co-founder Adam Rosenberg contributed eight points, and Jordan Backs' recent shooting slump continued, as he scored just two points in 30 minutes. Big Guy, the perpetual non-factor, was the only Buckiiiits member who failed to record a point.
Even your trusty correspondent, who nearly sustaining a life-threatening spinal cord injury when he was hip checked and flattened midway through the first half, finished with three points and 18 assists in a heroic effort. He is expected to be at full strength for the postseason.

This is a test.
