1. Florida 13-0. Florida continues to roll after pounding the Hustlers. They face off against Yancy Street this week in a titanic showdown that is the final hurdle to an undefeated season for the Dogz.

2. Rochester 12-1. Crushed a overmatched Orlando squad and has a bye next week before they travel to Devil's Stadium to face the Reapers.

3. Reno 10-3. Winners of 6 in a row, they have a series of matchups against teams currently in the playoff picture. Reno is a great team and should still be able to run the table on these 3.

4. Yancy Street 11-2. Spanked Niagara this week and is heading into a huge showdown with #1 ranked Florida. If the Reapers can win at Florida and against Rochester they should be in position to usurp the #2 playoff seed.

5. Bronx 9-4. The Black Flag won their 5th in a row by staving off a furious 2nd half rally by the faltering Alexander's. They have 2 tough matchups coming up against Thundertown and Reno.

6. Port Moody 9-4. They beat down Orleans this week and have a game they need to win next week against Niagara. They close the season with Rochester and Florida so they may be feeling some pain as they limp into the playoffs after a brutal finish.

7. Victoria Punishers 7-6. Won a huge game against the Bralwers this week in the game of the week. They have come out of nowhere winning 4 of their last 5 and have a tough matchup ugainst the juggernaught Reno Knights this week. They close the season with 2 of the league bottom feeders and appear poised to see postseason action.

8. Thundertown 8-5. They lost to Victoria this week in a game that could very well be the death knell for thsi Thundertown squad. With their remaining games against Bronx, Teikoku and Reno, the Bralwers look like they are going to fizzle out and die out of the playoffs.

Still hanging on:

Teikoku 6-7. The Alexanders have lost 4 in a row and are on the verge of missing the playoffs. They must win their last 3 games, especially their matchup with Thundertown. If they win all 3, they could still make the playoffs if the Brawlers lose out as expected.

You're not a Cylon, when you die you're just dead:

Atlanta 5-8
Orlando 3-10
Niagara 4-9
Emmaus 2-11
Little Knights 1-12
Orleans 1-12
Hartford 0-13

Atlanta is still the best of these and has beaten 5 of them and could make a run next year. The rest are going to need a lot of improvement to show up next season.

Playoff Update:

Reno and Bronx have clinched playoff berths with wins this week while Florida has secured at least a home game. Port Mooddy will clinch a berth with a win next week against Nigara.

Victoria appears headed to the postseason if it can win its last 2 games. Teikoku must win all 3 of its remianing games to secure a berth, and also needs Thundertown to drop 2-3 of their remianing games, including theur game against the Alexanders. The final playoff berth will likely not be decided until the final week of the season.

Game of the Week:

11-2 Yancy Street Grim Reapers at 13-0 Florida Beachdogz

A late season classic pits two of the conferences best teams against each other when the Reapers visit the Beachdogz in Orange Bowl Stadium in a much anticipated matchup. The Reapers are likely the Dogz last viable challenge on their way to perfection and an undefeated 16-0 record.

The Reapers have a ton of talent on their roster and may have the best shot all season long of defeating Florida. Florida has its eye on the prize of a perfect season and will be fighting to make the dream a reality.

Prediction: The Reapers have something to prove this game. They have lost to the 2 quality opponents they have faced. The Dogz are charging towards perfection with a single minded determination. This is the game where the hopes of an undefeated seson are shattered.
Yancy Street 41 Florida 38

Yancy has always given Florida fits, even in defeat. Time for Yancy to dig deep.

I assume 1 spot back to #3

In order for us to take 2nd on the rankings we have to defeat Rochester on Wednesday. Even if we do beat Rochester(who have owned us recently) I still pick Florida #1 based on record even if we did beat them.

We lose to Rochester, I say 3rd on the power rankings

We beat Rochester, I say 2nd on the power rankings

I'd probably say they should remain behind the team who they suffered their worst defeat to

Man, tough to sort out the top 4.

Yancy: L to Reno, W Against Florida
Reno: L to Rochester, L to Floirda, W against Yancy
Roch: L to Florida, W against Reno
Florida: W against Reno and Roch, L to Yancy

What a damn mess! Thanks a lot Reapers!

All four are beast we just got handled by Reno painfully. from some1 who has lost to all 4 by wide margins though id definitly say the best is rochester. here's hoping we beat Atlanta to secure our postseason spot.

LMAO sorry CC, but Yancy needed this. If we lost to Reno, Florida, and Rochester I think there would be whispers about us not being able to win the big game...paper champs...chumps..well you get it
