2018 CONCACAF Champions League thread

[wopchop]

This is crazy. They have the two highest ranked teams in FiveThirtyEight's rankings facing each other in the Quarterfinals. I just realized that there was no possible first-round opponent *but* Colorado, since the US and Mexican teams aren't allowed to play each other. That means that no matter what happens each year, the Canadian team is going to face an MLS team in the first round.

I believe the rule was that teams from same association cannot face each other, not federation.

All the Mexican and US clubs (except Colorado) couldn't be drawn against each other because they were all in Pot 1. So Colorado could have only drawn America, Tijuana, UANL, Guadalajara, or us.
