Western Conference:
Queensland Exiles vs. Montreal Rulers (West game of the week)
Queensland's been WL before, they're definitely at the advantage here. Also, their average level is 72, Montreal's is 68.

St. John's Salty Dogs vs. Providence Radicals
Providence gave up a lot of points on Kashyyyk last week. St. John's is untested after 1 game, but that just means they had extra time to get their gameplan together.

North Bay Drift vs. Jebediah's Oblong Ball Club
Since North Bay was able to hang with Bloodweiser it would seem they've got to be one of the teams to beat in the West. Jeb's said their AI wasn't set up, but with nothing proving what they're capable of this season, I don't think they can keep up.

Nunavut Matters vs. Widow Makers
Both teams had close losses to East playoff teams, both are an average of 66. Widow Makers with those open builds though, that team needs a leader.

Claremont Cocks vs. Windsor Flying Walruses
Walruses looked good in their opener, but the Cocks gave up a ton of points to Leaders. If they want to make a game of this, the Cocks' defense better stiffen up.

Nebraska Maniac Gorillas vs. Windsor Wildcats - Blowout
Prince Rupert Drunken Donkeys vs. Houston Vikings - Not a chance
Kansas City Rams vs. Thunder Bay Wolverines - Easy win


Eastern Conference:
Puvirnituq Musketeers vs. Prince Edward Island Mi'kmaqs (East Game of the Week)
Tooting my own horn here calling this the game of the week, but out of all the games between potential playoff teams I see this one being the most evenly matched, and likely the closest in score. I see this one going down to the wire. A few people picked Mi'kmaqs to continue their winning tradition and even going pro next season. Two teams with great chemistry, but Puvi averages level 70, and PEIM averages level 66. I'd say advantage Muskies.

Kashyyyk Wookiees vs. Cobden Muskrats
Kashyyyk just missed out on the playoffs last season, and the Muskrats got the bid. The Wookies don't want to be in that position again, and really held their own against the Radicals. Cobden was off to a good start in their 30-9 win, too. I think this is going to be a close one, maybe even overtime. Tough call, but I'm going with the team I know better.

Niagara Maulers vs. Bloodweiser Bugle All Stars
Bloodweiser's the team to beat from the start, back from a tough season in WL, they've reloaded, and are aiming for another shot. Niagara was a playoff team last season, but I don't think they've got the players to pull off the upset.

Space Dockers vs. Sacramento Vikings
I don't know anything about either team. Vikings have great chemistry and an average level of 70, while the dockers do not, and only average 64.

The Bastard Sons of Doug Flutie vs. Hub City Hustlers
Bastards only lost by 28 in their first game, looks like they've improved since last season, now their roster averages 67. Hub Hustlers come with a lot of Hype, and I don't see them giving the Bastards much room.

Hudson Bay Horrors vs. Leaders Gaulois - Surprisingly Leaders put some points up in their first game. Hudson's got this, though.
Medicine Hat Witch Doctors vs. Paradise Cheeseburgers - MHWD got blown out in their first game back in Pros. Please don't lose to CPUs.
Village Dogs vs. Danzig Raytheon - Yawn

I was going to say that I expect chemistry to have us at a disadvantage early this season, but St. John's is actually lower, so I'll have to think of a new excuse.

St. John's Salty Dogs vs. Providence Radicals79-13
***********North Bay Drift vs. Jebediah's Oblong Ball Club38-45
Clearly Jeb's AI blunder was a major factor in their opening day loss to Puvirnituq, but it looks like it's fixed, and they're ready to contend for the West. I knew this was a good matchup, well done Jeb's.
***********Nunavut Matters vs. Widow Makers 17-45
I guess Widow Makers does have what it takes, this one surprises me.
Claremont Cocks vs. Windsor Flying Walruses 27-59

what disturbs you more... the fact I didn't even defensive gameplan or the fact we haz open builds?

The fact that you have so many open builds was enough for me to know you didn't gameplan. That won't get you far this season.
It seems to me that your last opponent didn't gameplan either though, haha lolwest
