The 2008 New Orleans VooDoo season is the fourth and final season for the franchise. The Voodoo started the season with a 7-2 record, but lost 6 of their last 7 games, finishing with an 8-8 record. This caused them to miss the playoffs, losing a tiebreaker scenario with the New York Dragons who had finished with the same record, and had defeated the VooDoo in the regular season. The team folded 4 months later, but will return in 2011.[1]
