Print
The Falcons and Colts both won on Thursday to advance to the PAL Super Bowl Friday Night.  The Colts wrapped up the AFC with a 46-38 victory over the Titans.  The Titans controlled the first half as they were staring at a 20-14 lead going into the break until Sean Regan intercepted a pass and returned it for a touchdown as time expired.  The Colts scored on their first possession of the second half and never looked back.  Andrew Collier threw six touchdown passes throughout the game, connecting with wide-out David Robinson on four scoring occasions.  The Titans offense moved the ball well, as Greg Hallet tallied four passing touchdowns in the game with Alec Bottari scoring on three separate occasions.
The Falcons recorded their league leading eighth win of the season as they went on to defeat the Falcons 34-31.  The Saints took a 25-20 lead with less than ten minutes left in the second half, but could not hold off the high powered Falcons offense.  Jeff Pala scored a quick touchdown to regain the lead and then proceeded to intercept a pass on the Saints next drive which lead to another Falcons score.  John Metz carried the Saints offense, connecting with Chance Hayes for two touchdowns and running for another pair of scores.  James Hamory led the Falcons charge, scoring five total touchdowns and adding an interception on defense. 
The PAL Super Bowl is sure to live up to the hype as the Falcons will try to avenge their only loss this season against the Colts.  The Colts ended the Falcons undefeated run in the final week of the regular season, winning 40-28.  The game will start Friday night at 5:30.
