Changes

With Coach '''Mike Thomas''' leading the way, the '''Power''' saw some new competition, as their favorite rival the [[Wikipedia:Alabama Renegades|Alabama Renegades]] were shifted into a different division. Although the games were tougher as the competition gets more experienced, the '''Power''' had their 4th consecutive 8-0-0 regular season. New playoff rules put into place made the scenario such that you must beat each opponent by more than 30 points to ultimately gain the home field advantage. Teams who were given forfeits automatically were credited with a 30 point spread win. Although 8-0 and outscoring their opponents 398-57, the '''Power''' lost the home field advantage, was seeded #3 and had to travel for 2 out of 3 playoff games. The '''Power''' breezed their way through the first round defeating the [[Wikipedia:Asheville Assault|Asheville Assault]] 61-0. The team met the always competitive [[Wikipedia:Chattanooga Locomotion|Chattanooga Locomotion]] in the next round. This was the first time the two teams had met again since the 2001 season. The game began slowly with both teams showing some strengths and weaknesses but the '''Power''' opened things up in the second half and defeated the Locomotion 35-20. The final playoff game and Southern Conference Championship was against the [[Wikipedia:Oklahoma City Lightning in |Oklahoma CityLightning]]. The '''Power''' was disappointed as they weren't able to take the team to the final game with a loss to OKC. The franchise record after this season is 36-4 (.894) not including pre-season scrimmages.
