4 p.m. Sunday at the Wells Fargo Center

TV: ESPN3

Soul record (home record): 13-3 (8-0)

VooDoo record (road record): 3-12 (0-6)

Soul key players: Dan Raudabaugh, QB: 108 TDs, 12 INTs, 4,596 passing yards. Tommy Taggart Jr., RB: 83 attempts, 260 rushing yards, 12 TDs. Marco Thomas, WR: 141 receptions, 1,662 receiving yards, 35 TDs.

VooDoo key players: Adam Kennedy, QB: 38 TDs, 11 INTs, 2,561 passing yards. Roosevelt Falls, RB: 41 attempts, 94 rushing yards, nine TDs. Chris Duvalt, WR: 100 receptions, 1,183 receiving yards, 21TDs.

Last game: The Soul are coming off a 74-67 loss to the Jacksonville Sharks two weeks ago and didn't play last week ... The VooDoo's last game was also on July 18, and they beat the Tampa Bay Storm, 65-53, at home.

Outlook: The Soul have been the best team in the American Conference and clinched home-field advantage through the conference finals. They have done so with the top-ranked offense (59.4 points per game) and third-ranked defense (47.7 points against per game). The Soul's 951 total points this season, the most in the league, is 51 points higher than the next best mark in the conference... The VooDoo, on the other hand, have the worst record in the league and have scored the fewest points at 630. If the VooDoo can pull off an upset, they will do two things they haven't been able to accomplish all season: win an East Division game, and win a game on the road. The VooDoo and the Portland Thunder are the only teams in the league that are winless in division play this season.
