Was considering converting to my playoff possibilities formatting, especially given how f'ed up the middle of Alpha is to rank. However, I'm lazy and would rather cut and paste, so here ya go
Top Eight
#1 (Last Week: 1) - Cypriot Freedom (12-0) - As expected, Cypriot handled Sin City without too much issue. Next opponent - Florida BeachDogZ (Prediction - Cypriot by a bunch)
#2 (Last Week: 2) - Devonport Devils (11-1) -The DogZ posed no threat to the Devils, as they sent them to the pound. Devonport has a tougher opponent this week, but with the whole team inactive, I don't expect Devonport to have too much trouble. Next opponent - Death Dealers (Prediction - Devonport by 28)
#3 (Last Week: 3) - Eastern European Alliance (11-1) - Just about nailed the point spread on EEA's last game (said 42, was 40). EEA gets their final test before locking up the top seed in Zeta. I think they will pass without any major issues. Next opponent - Gold Coast Vipers (Prediction - EEA by 27)
#4 (Last Week: 4) - Asau Pirates (11-1) - Asau ran the bulls into the ground and stomped all over them, as they posted an 84 point win this past game. The schedule is even easier this week as they face one of the Zeta bye weeks. Next opponent - Motown Legends (Prediction - Asau by 9000)
#5 (Last Week: 5) - Banzai Pipeline Nites (10-2) - Banzai showed that they belong in the top 5 as they neutered the Bulldogs of Boston. They need to keep it up as they face another Alpha playoff team this week. Next opponent - Bora Bora Bangaroos (Prediction - Banzai by 13)
#6 (Last Week: 6) - Oregon Ducks (10-2) - Oregon answered any doubts I had about their strength of schedule by grounding the Sea Hawks of Sumatra. They definitely deserve their top 6 ranking now. They have a big game coming up against Asau in which they could earn a top 2 seed. However, for this week, they get a stat-padding game. Next opponent - Warriors of Oceania (Prediction - Oregon breaks the scoreboard)
#7 (Last Week: 13) - Gold Coast Michelin Men (8-4) - Welcome back to the top 10 GCMM. Nice win over Stockholm. GCMM controls their destiny for the 4th seed in Alpha. They have 3 games against teams that are one game back, so they can not slip up. However, if they win out, they will be the 4 seed. Before worrying about that, they get an easy game. Next opponent: Urban Super Dogs (Prediction: Gold Coast by a lot)
#8 (Last Week: 7) - Sumatra Sea Hawks (10-2) - Kind of surprised by how much Sumatra lost to Oregon. Not so much that Oregon is that good, but I thought Sumatra was closer. Thus, they take a small dip. They are saved a larger drop by some unexpected loses in Alpha. Next opponent - Saipan Sin-Eaters (Prediction - Sumatra by 50)
