- Moving to lanes 23&24, 1st-place I'm Gonna Belt Ya, Sucka! will meet with 6th-place Yo Mama (hcp 148). The Belt might roll a little low, yet still manage to sweep the series; while Yo Mama ought to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Then, over on lanes 25&26, 3rd-place Split Happens will spend some quality time with 7th-place Guttersluts (hcp 115). Split Happens will likely maintain their current strength as they win the series; while Guttersluts will probably raise their average even as they avoid getting swept.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 4th-place Sweeter Than Yoohoo (hcp 83) will throw some gutter balls with 2nd-place Bowl Movement.
