And then there were two! After the weekend's All Ireland football semi final action, only Tyrone now stand in the way of Dublin and a potential four-in-a-row of titles.
After Dublin saw off Galway in a far from full Croke Park, an all-Ulster clash between Tyrone and Galway went the way of Mickey Harte's side and they will go in as underdogs when they face the Dubs in the decider.
Former Mayo manager James Horan and ex-Tyrone footballer Brian McGuigan joined Joe Molloy to review the action and where that leaves us as the Championship approaches its conclusion.
What do Tyrone have to do to give themselves the best chance of delivering an upset based on what we saw from them against Monaghan and during the Super 8s?
"I think it's going to be an intriguing final," said Horan.
"What impressed me about Tyrone is their attitude, their mental strength. They'll want Dublin now. That's the way they look at it.
"Some teams for me are beaten before they go near the field with Dublin: 'Oh my God, we're playing Dublin, we need to cover back, we need to drop deep, we need to do this, we need to do that'.
"I think Tyrone will be the opposite. I think they'll want these guys. They'll want to take on Dublin. I think they're mentally very, very strong. They'll just fancy shaking these guys up. I think you're going to see Mickey Harte try and shake it up a bit."
He added that Tyrone's best chance would be to engage Dublin further up the field rather than sitting deep like they tried to no effect in last year's semi final.
Horan also reacted to the speculation in today's Irish Sun in regards to former Donegal manager Jim McGuinness being linked to the Mayo job as well as the current incumbent Stephen Rochford's likely future plans.
