However, this year could potentially be seen as a little surprising.
The Whips started off the season at 2-4 with losses right before and right after the all-star break.
It looked like maybe we were finally watching the demise of the Whipsnakes.

Like when Trent Dilfer said the Patriots just weren’t good anymore in 2014 after a week 4 loss.
Late in the 3rd quarter.
The Outlaws had scored the last 3 goals to take a 9-7 lead.
Now it’s not like own-goals never happen.
We see them plenty of times in hockey and soccer.
Only thing there, however, is that those typically only count for 1 point up on the scoreboard.
A 1-goal win after the whackiest, zaniest, rabble rousing 2-goal bounce ever.
And now the Whipsnakes are 1 win away from playing for another PLL Championship.
All that’s left in front of them is taking on the 1-seed Atlas on Saturday on Long Island.
A team they’ve historically dominated, and also already beat 16-12 this year.
So now the Chaos will have the Archers on Saturday in the semis.
