Well, the end of another regular season is here already. As discussed elsewhere - http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=3456805&page=2#30323124 - the West has already settled which eight teams are going to the playoffs...where half of them will seed is all that's to be decided. The East isn't quite settled yet with "the win or tie or lose and..." blah, blah, blah, it's too much thought for me.

This will be the last of this style of predictions...the Excel worksheet doesn't go past the regular season. What I'll be able to cook up for the playoffs...who knows? As time permits. For now, here's the final week's predictions:

Eastern Conference

Rk__Team_________________________W__L__T___%____PF____PA__
..1 . . Queen City Black Cats………………….15 . . ..1 . . 0 . . 94% . . 660 . . ...211

..13 . . The B-Tard Sons of Doug Flutie……....5 . . 11 . . 0 . . 31% . . 396 . . ...527
..14 . . Niagara Maulers………..………………...4 . . 12 . . 0 . . 25% . . 269 . . ...479
..15 . . Cape Verde Jacks………………………...3 . . 13 . . 0 . . 19% . . 275 . . ...499
..16 . . Medicine Hat Witch Doctors……………..0 . . 16 . . 0 . . ..0% . . 175 . . 1,053

Magnificent B-Tards vs Medicine Hat Witch Doctors (93-9) Spread: 84
Queen City Black Cats vs Charlesburgh Black Iron Dragons (45-13) Spread: 32
Village Dogs vs Hillsburgh Hillbillies (45-12) Spread: 33
Providence Radicals vs Memphis Rage (18-15) Spread: 3
Newfoundland Owls vs Niagara Maulers (27-15) Spread: 12
Yellowknife Rented Mules vs Cape Verde Jacks (42-8) Spread: 34
Halifax Hashishim vs Cobden Muskrats (32-20) Spread: 12Game of the Week
Kingston Poopsters vs The B-Tard Sons of Doug Flutie (29-25) Spread: 4

If I understand things correctly, five spots in the East have been locked up. There are five teams fighting for the final three spots...and Halifax vs. Cobden is the only game that pits two of those teams against one another. Cobden not only needs a victory to possibly make the playoffs, they'll also need a few other teams to lose for things to fall into place. To a lesser degree, Halifax can't rely on getting in with only a win...they also need another team or two to lose before they grab up a spot.

Thunder Bay Mules vs Tadoussac Whalers (27-25) Spread: 2Game of the Week
North Delta Huskies vs Windsor Walruses (30-23) Spread: 7

All eight playoff teams have been decided and, for the most part, we know where six of them will likely end up. This Game of the Week will help determine which of these teams seeds at #6 (Northern Polar Bears in Round 1) or #8 (Kansas City Rams in Round 1). The Rams vs. the Boyz is the only other match-up featuring two playoff teams and the seeding would really be shaken up if Brooklyn pulled off an upset. I'm sure Buxx is pursuing the perfect season and won't let that happen.

Eastern Conference_________________________________________________________________________________________________

Magnificent B-Tards vs Kingston Poopsters (35-16) Spread: 19 Actual Score, 27-24, B-Tards
Charlesburgh Black Iron Dragons vs Medicine Hat Witch Doctors (68-12) Spread: 56 Actual Score, 51-13, Black Iron Dragons
Queen City Black Cats vs Niagara Maulers (46-8) Spread: 38 Actual Score, 45-6, Dogs
Village Dogs vs Memphis Rage (23-10) Spread: 13 Actual Score, 26-0, Dogs
Newfoundland Owls vs Cape Verde Jacks (28-17) Spread: 11 Actual Score, 26-6, Owls
Yellowknife Rented Mules vs Cobden Muskrats (27-12) Spread: 15 Actual Score, 33-9, Rented Mules
Halifax Hashishim vs Providence Radicals (32-28) Spread: 4Game of the WeekActual Score, 25-14, Hashishim
Hillsburgh Hillbillies vs The B-Tard Sons of Doug Flutie (32-32) Spread: 0 Actual Score, 27-12, Hillbillies

The projector went a near perfect 8-0 in the East last week. I realize it predicted a tie for the final game, but it also chose to bold Hillsburgh rather than BSoDF...so that's like picking them in my book. Most importantly, Halifax came through in the Game of the Week...keeping them in the playoff hunt for one more week.

Western Conference_________________________________________________________________________________________________

St. John's Salty Dogs vs North Delta Huskies (34-19) Spread: 15 Actual Score, 34-31, Huskies
Kansas City Rams vs Thunder Bay Bloodhounds (32-24) Spread: 8 Actual Score, 56-10, Rams
Brooklyn Boyz vs Winnipeg Wrath (290-0) Spread: 290 Actual Score, 264-0, Boyz
Manitoba Aftershocks vs Nebraska Husker Maniacs (36-13) Spread: 23 Actual Score, 42-17, Aftershocks
Tradewest Battletoads vs Hornepayne Northern Railers (34-17) Spread: 17 Actual Score, 48-20, Battletoads
Northern Polar Bears vs Tadoussac Whalers (31-30) Spread: 1Game of the WeekActual Score, 59-31, Polar Bears
Thunder Bay Mules vs Windsor Walruses (37-22) Spread: 15 Actual Score, 20-9, Mules
Kansas City Gorillas vs Red River Rebellion (35-25) Spread: 10 Actual Score, 35-28, Gorillas

Only the Huskies managed to pull off an upset this week with the projector going 7-1. Northern crushed the spread in the Game of the Week hurting Tadoussac's playoff seeding a little, but not keeping them from the playoffs.

FLGator... thanks for all the work. I ran this sheet in a couple of my leagues before, and the setup is kind of tedious, but your work has not gone unnoticed!

Thanks Gator

But as 1 of those 5 teams duking it out for a play-off berth, it is getting pretty freaking hairy.

Thanks Gator...

I feel like I've let my teammates down. Real life intruded, and I wasn't able to game plan or scout for a few games, and we ended up losing 3 in a row. Now, I don't know if we would have won any of them if I had game planned, but we all know what happened with the alternative.

You're all welcome.

This game certainly isn't without its problems...but, in all, it's still a pretty decent product. If these write-ups provide a little extra motivation to keep your team going...the effort is well worth it.

Here's to a great final week and an even better playoffs.
