OK - This post has been edited and the predictions have been provided. Because there is some other chatter I will also post the R2D2 Predictions and additional information after.

Because the games are not posted on the conference page, I will list them in the order of the rankings.

Game #1 - New York Mustangs (#1 5-0) vs American Cardinals (#14 0-5) - http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1773&team2=856 -- In a matchup with teams that both have a perfect schedule, one unblemished with losses and the other ungraced with wins, I foresee a continuation of the status quo. Mustangs Dominate 255-14.

Game #2 - St. Louis Knights (#2 4-1) vs Jacksonville Canaries (#12 1-4) - http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1591&team2=52 -- Perk up Knights fans, I'm calling the game for them once more. The plucky yellow birds will try to get into this game but will fall. I say Knights 56-24

Game #3 - Dalton Dragons (#3 4-1) vs Enterprise Venom (#10 2-3) - http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1589&team2=1718 -- For all their talent, the Venom just has not lived up to expectations. Expect more of the same as the Dragon's roar confuses the ligyrophobic Venom into helplessness. Dragons 37-10.

Game #4 - Atlantic City Aces (#4 4-1) vs Pennsylvania Steagles (#11 2-3) - http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=758&team2=383 -- What is a steagle anyway? Whatever it is it looks like a cross between Bill Cower and Dick Vermiel and spits and cries. It also doesn't play well enough football to stop these Aces. Aces win 77-10.

Game #5 - Toronto Arctic Wolves (#5 4-1) vs Chicago LMG Accountabillibuddies (#9 2-3) - http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=61&team2=784 -- Paper favours the Wolves but I'm going to go with my gut. I think Chicago has something in them they're going to bring to this next game and stun the Wolves in a shocker. 37-35 Chicago.

Game #6 - Chinese Bandits (#6 3-2) vs "Quick Stop" Clerks (#8 2-3) - http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1580&team2=1430 -- You ever wonder what it would look like if a mongol horde descended on a 7-11 and trashed the place. The teeming multitude of happy mongol faces with bits of snowballs and slurpees stuck in the beards and mustaches and a horse happily munching on nachos? Well you'll have to wait longer to see it because they are playing this game in Chinese territory so the Clerks home is safe for now, but they'll still lose. I'm calling it Bandits 61-37.

Game #7 - Cleveland Kardiac Kids (#7 3-2) vs Biggold Brawlers (#13 1-4) - http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1229&team2=91 -- Biggold has heart, but the Kardiac Kids are all about heart. Kids win this 72-14.

Game #8 - Houston Oil Rig Workers (#15 0-5) vs Detroit Dominators (#16 0-5) - http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=726&team2=1263 -- Well in the 'Toilet Bowl' this week we have the two lowest rated teams in the USA BBB#2 (not just the Eastern Conference, but the whole league). I'd almost be tempted to call this game a tie, but one team is going to limp out of here with a win. Likely that team will be Houston 36-12.


R2D2 Predictions:

New York Mustangs vs American Cardinals (316-20) Spread: 296
St. Louis Knights vs Jacksonville Canaries (85-20) Spread: 65
Atlantic City Aces vs Pennsylvania Steagles (100-25) Spread: 75
Toronto Arctic Wolves vs Chicago LMG Accountabillibuddies (51-45) Spread: 6
Chinese Bandits vs "Quick Stop" Clerks (76-48) Spread: 28
Dalton Dragons vs Enterprise Venom (45-23) Spread: 22
Cleveland Kardiac Kids vs Biggold Brawlers (96-34) Spread: 62
Houston Oil Rig Workers vs Detroit Dominators (132-11) Spread: 121

Looks like R2D2 and I disagree on the Wolves - Chicago game. We'll see who is right tomorrow.

I know what the records look like, but I just dont see us blowing this team out. maybe Im just too used to getting our ass whooped. I saw the vulnerabilities in our defense last game, and I am certain someone will find it out soon. until then, We'll be ok.

I think theres almost no way we blow out by 30+points.

Im a gambling man, and I'd take the steagles with points on this one.

Its gonna be a good match so we are just gonna let it all out... two of the better offenses in the league, Aces are the 4th Overall O and we are the 5th Overall O... I think we can pull off a victory tomorrow...

Yeah, were not realyl an offensive team. we really rely on our defense to give us the short field. right now, were averageing 21 yards allowed rushing. with our highest yards allowed being 94.5.. I forget by who offhand.

How do you want to judge offense? I tend to prefer to look at points scored and points scored against

In the east this is:
Atlantic City Aces For 392 Against 69 - Differential +323
St. Louis Knights For 444 Against 141 - Differential +303
Dalton Dragons For 409 Against 123 - Differential +286
New York Mustangs For 350 Against 138 - Differential +212
Toronto Arctic Wolves For 309 Against 135 - Differential +174
Chinese Bandits For 297 Against 173 - Differential +124
Pennsylvania Steagles For 389 Against 301 - Differential +88
Cleveland Kardiac Kids For 238 Against 198 - Differential +40
Jacksonville Canaries For 219 Against 187 - Differential +32
Enterprise Venom For 189 Against 166 - Differential +23
"Quick Stop" Clerks For 275 Against 307 - Differential -32
Chicago LMG Accountabillibuddies For 190 Against 293 - Differential -103
Biggold Brawlers For 159 Against 343 - Differential -184
Houston Oil Rig Workers For 83 Against 297 - Differential -214
American Cardinals For 171 Against 694 - Differential -523
Detroit Dominators For 46 Against 788 - Differential -742

You have to figure in strength of schedule too, make sure the blowouts vs the guts weren't to many of those points.

Still its pretty close to the R2D2 projected end of season rankings.
1 New York Mustangs
2 Atlantic City Aces
3 St. Louis Knights
4 Cleveland Kardiac Kids
5 Dalton Dragons
6 Chinese Bandits
7 Toronto Arctic Wolves
8 Pennsylvania Steagles
9 Chicago LMG Accountabillibuddies
10 "Quick Stop" Clerks
11 Enterprise Venom
12 Jacksonville Canaries
13 Biggold Brawlers
14 Houston Oil Rig Workers
15 American Cardinals
16 Detroit Dominators
