Looking at some of the matchups:
LMA vs Super T-Rex looks interesting as LMA is tanking out of the NBBA so they would seemingly want to try to win. However they are playing away.
Funky Town Fire vs Delta 9 is another powerhouse matchup 2 vs 13 and 2 is away.
Looking at the matchups there are only 15 matchups where a Div V/IV play against a Div II or better. With that in mind, there is probably going to be around 15 IV/V teams left for the round of 64.
The Fundamentalists look to have the best shot of any Div 5 team to make the next round as they are playing a beatable Div IV squad at home.

Overall there might be 5 teams from Div IV/V that sneak into the final 32. I'm hoping with a lucky draw that I am one of them

Another nice job here simon. I'm kind of rooting for Montana Iceholes to pull an upset. He started out in my league last year and had to demote. Go caddyman406!

That would be pretty cool. Most of the teams that come out of IV.41 wouldn't be Iceholes, but are really only one vowel change away.

There ended up being quite a few upsets.

Bananahorns a Div 3 squad beat the Bloody Eagles! A div 1 team.
My prediction of the Fundamentalists making it as the only Div 5 team in the final 64 came true.
Stormz a Div 4 team destroyed the Wildcats a Div 3 team while playing TIE.
Bellyachers a Div 4 squad beat a Div III squad as well as Miu U, and Dirty Dogs
Big Head Todd and Two Os Goose put all their effort into winning a close games against Div III squads
Frogmonsters won a close game against a Div 2 squad.

So 9 clear upsets this round...pretty high number considering we are down to 64 teams.

I was spot on with my prediction...there are fifteen Div 4/5 teams left.
