The rankings below are based off of nothing but roster evaluation, past records (seasonal, playoffs, and scrimmages), team chemistry, and personal knowledge of the team. I didn’t use a greasemonkey script or spreadsheet or anything fancy; just my opinion. These rankings are up for debate amongst yourselves on the forums, but if you want to move up in the rankings; you’ll have to prove it on the dotball field!

* OFFICIALLY ELIMINATED - Black Sea Rebels, Austin Drunk Punks, and Schrute Farms
- The Warlords are still in it, but they have to win every game and those 6-5 teams will have to lose every game in order for the Warlords to make the playoffs. Next week for the Warlords is a face off with Diamond Valley.
- The Tokers have two easy games left on their schedule and a game against the Vadars that could go either way; after those games…they're looking some more losses. They'll have to either slow down the Vadars or take down a giant in order to get some post season action.
- The Misfits should finish off 7 - 9 on paper so they've got to get an upet with one of the top teams in Alpha. They'll still have the Borg and Serpents during the final weeks of the season and they'll need to win at least one of those games to even have a shot at post season play.
- The Dot Vadars, Brew Crew, and Assault are all battling it out for that last remaining chance to lose to the Mercenaries in the playoffs.Their playoff hopes are in their hands; now their game against each other could be the factor on who stays home; so far Brew Crew over Assault.
- The Demons have some brutal games still on their schedule including the Mercenaries up next, but more importantly for their playoff seed; the Borg and Serpents. If they do drop those three games, they could be in trouble they'll still finish off with nine wins and should make the playoffs, but it may not look good for them in the post season.
- The Rage is in a bad spot as every game is now a playoff game for them for the rest of the season. They've already stepped up to the frist challenge and took down the Mastadons so they are ready to play, but it's still win or die every week for them. Their game against the Empire will still be huge for them.
- The Empire has some tough games ahead, but they should be fine for the playoffs as long as they don't sleep on the wrong team. With the Mastadons loss to the Rage and their upcoming matchup this could be interesting and with some luck could effect their playoff ranking.
- The Serpents face off with some bubble teams still and have an easy win left on their schedule, but they're looking solid for a playoff lock. They should be in, but the playoff seeds are difficult to tell, but their game against the Demons will be important if they want a shot at that last home playoff game spot.
- The Borg's season is done, lock them in for a home playoff game as they only have their final game of the season against the Demons left. Everyone else is a walk in the park and the Borg should have no problem finishing the season at 13-3. Maybe they can even get the second seed with some help from the Empire.
- The Mastadons lost an important game as they now really don't hae a shot at the #1 seed unless the Mercenaries' coordinators go on vacation for a week. Now the Mastadons find themselves in a tough position as they can lose their grip on the #2 seed as well. Quite a few teams will be watching their game against the Empire.
- The Mercenaries have locked up the first playoff spot in Alpha. With a two game difference between them and the Mastadons, I'm sure they're on cruise control now. If the Mastadons fall to the Empire, the Mercenaries can throw the last two games of the season and still hold on to the #1 seed.

> For a real breakdown of Zeta, please see KCChiefsMan's thread: http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=4571122
- The Skulls have now lost six games in a row; not looking good as we close out the season and now they face off with the Hitmen. Next week will probably be seven losses in a row and a move to the Official Eliminated category.
- The Fleet have three easy games left on their schedule so that's one good thing in their favor. They're still alive mathmatically, but pretty much out of the playoff hunt. They did win an important game to keep them alive, but they have to beat a giant to get in; only to face off with a giant in the playoffs.
- The Militia have one easy game left and then they'll have to fight with the bubble teams in order to get into the post season, but their final matchup of the season against the BLACK ARMY could end up being the determing factor on their playoff berth. That win alone won't get them in as they'll probably have to surprise one of the London teams as well.
- The BLACK ARMY started off great, but they did have a weaker schedule coming into the season. They do have an easy game against the Skulls still on their schedule, but this could be a trap game if they're not careful. They have to do something quickly as the next two games are huge for their post season play.
- The Underground have the Black Hand up next, but then they're on cruise control with all the CPU teams they'll face to close out the season. They're a lock for the playoffs with at least an 11-5 record and possible 12-4 record if they can beat the Black Hand. They have a solid shot at that last home game playoff spot.
- The Chiefs have Paris and the Grizzlies left on their schedule; both are going to be tough games for them to win, but they can't sleep on the other teams either. They have some bubble team matchups that could cause problems for them and too many losses could hurt their chances at getting a good playoff seed. They should still make the playoffs, but that loss to the Stop Signs does hurt.
- The Stop Sign's latest win helped them reach their first goal of making the playoffs and they have a couple easy games still to go; granted they still have to face off with the Black Hand as well. They will need to remained focused on their matchups with the bubble teams, but they should be lock to make the playoffs.
- Porto has a mix of easy games and some brutal games that will tell what they're up against in the post season. They're a lock for the playoffs, but will have to work at it for a home game. I can't see them any worse than 10-6 on the season, but should finish better than that.
- The Hitmen have a great closing schedule; not counting their matchup with the Black Hand. Outside that game, they should win out and lock up a playoff spot and probably a home playoff game. If they can figure out the Black Hand, they could move up even higher in the rankings with a little help from the Chiefs or Porto getting an upset on some of the top teams.
- The Grizzlies and Paris get three CPU teams to close out their schedule, but their face off with each other will decide their rank for the playoffs; however, they will have Porto and the Chiefs coming after them. They are both a lock for the playoffs, but a loss to the Chiefs or Porto could cost them a home playoff game. Both teams will lock up a playoff spot this next week.
- The Black Hand had a few easy games left on their schedule, but they also have to face off with both the London teams; starting off with the Underground this week. They should be a lock for the playoffs unless something goes way wrong, but they will still have to fight for their playoff seed and a home playoff game. One more win locks up a playoff spot.

* OFFICIALLY ELIMINATED - Black Sea Rebels, Austin Drunk Punks, and Schrute Farms
- The Warlords are still in it, but they have to win every game and those 6-5 teams will have to lose every game in order for the Warlords to make the playoffs. Next week for the Warlords is a face off with Diamond Valley.
- The Tokers have two easy games left on their schedule and a game against the Vadars that could go either way; after those games…they're looking some more losses. They'll have to either slow down the Vadars or take down a giant in order to get some post season action.
- The Misfits should finish off 7 - 9 on paper so they've got to get an upet with one of the top teams in Alpha. They'll still have the Borg and Serpents during the final weeks of the season and they'll need to win at least one of those games to even have a shot at post season play.
- The Dot Vadars, Brew Crew, and Assault are all battling it out for that last remaining chance to lose to the Mercenaries in the playoffs.Their playoff hopes are in their hands; now their game against each other could be the factor on who stays home; so far Brew Crew over Assault.
- The Demons have some brutal games still on their schedule including the Mercenaries up next, but more importantly for their playoff seed; the Borg and Serpents. If they do drop those three games, they could be in trouble they'll still finish off with nine wins and should make the playoffs, but it may not look good for them in the post season.
- The Rage is in a bad spot as every game is now a playoff game for them for the rest of the season. They've already stepped up to the frist challenge and took down the Mastadons so they are ready to play, but it's still win or die every week for them. Their game against the Empire will still be huge for them.
- The Empire has some tough games ahead, but they should be fine for the playoffs as long as they don't sleep on the wrong team. With the Mastadons loss to the Rage and their upcoming matchup this could be interesting and with some luck could effect their playoff ranking.
- The Serpents face off with some bubble teams still and have an easy win left on their schedule, but they're looking solid for a playoff lock. They should be in, but the playoff seeds are difficult to tell, but their game against the Demons will be important if they want a shot at that last home playoff game spot.
- The Borg's season is done, lock them in for a home playoff game as they only have their final game of the season against the Demons left. Everyone else is a walk in the park and the Borg should have no problem finishing the season at 13-3. Maybe they can even get the second seed with some help from the Empire.
- The Mastadons lost an important game as they now really don't hae a shot at the #1 seed unless the Mercenaries' coordinators go on vacation for a week. Now the Mastadons find themselves in a tough position as they can lose their grip on the #2 seed as well. Quite a few teams will be watching their game against the Empire.
- The Mercenaries have locked up the first playoff spot in Alpha. With a two game difference between them and the Mastadons, I'm sure they're on cruise control now. If the Mastadons fall to the Empire, the Mercenaries can throw the last two games of the season and still hold on to the #1 seed.

- The Skulls have now lost six games in a row; not looking good as we close out the season and now they face off with the Hitmen. Next week will probably be seven losses in a row and a move to the Official Eliminated category.
- The Fleet have three easy games left on their schedule so that's one good thing in their favor. They're still alive mathmatically, but pretty much out of the playoff hunt. They did win an important game to keep them alive, but they have to beat a giant to get in; only to face off with a giant in the playoffs.
- The Militia have one easy game left and then they'll have to fight with the bubble teams in order to get into the post season, but their final matchup of the season against the BLACK ARMY could end up being the determing factor on their playoff berth. That win alone won't get them in as they'll probably have to surprise one of the London teams as well.
- The BLACK ARMY started off great, but they did have a weaker schedule coming into the season. They do have an easy game against the Skulls still on their schedule, but this could be a trap game if they're not careful. They have to do something quickly as the next two games are huge for their post season play.
- The Underground have the Black Hand up next, but then they're on cruise control with all the CPU teams they'll face to close out the season. They're a lock for the playoffs with at least an 11-5 record and possible 12-4 record if they can beat the Black Hand. They have a solid shot at that last home game playoff spot.
- The Chiefs have Paris and the Grizzlies left on their schedule; both are going to be tough games for them to win, but they can't sleep on the other teams either. They have some bubble team matchups that could cause problems for them and too many losses could hurt their chances at getting a good playoff seed. They should still make the playoffs, but that loss to the Stop Signs does hurt.
- The Stop Sign's latest win helped them reach their first goal of making the playoffs and they have a couple easy games still to go; granted they still have to face off with the Black Hand as well. They will need to remained focused on their matchups with the bubble teams, but they should be lock to make the playoffs.
- Porto has a mix of easy games and some brutal games that will tell what they're up against in the post season. They're a lock for the playoffs, but will have to work at it for a home game. I can't see them any worse than 10-6 on the season, but should finish better than that.
- The Hitmen have a great closing schedule; not counting their matchup with the Black Hand. Outside that game, they should win out and lock up a playoff spot and probably a home playoff game. If they can figure out the Black Hand, they could move up even higher in the rankings with a little help from the Chiefs or Porto getting an upset on some of the top teams.
- The Grizzlies and Paris get three CPU teams to close out their schedule, but their face off with each other will decide their rank for the playoffs; however, they will have Porto and the Chiefs coming after them. They are both a lock for the playoffs, but a loss to the Chiefs or Porto could cost them a home playoff game. Both teams will lock up a playoff spot this next week.
- The Black Hand had a few easy games left on their schedule, but they also have to face off with both the London teams; starting off with the Underground this week. They should be a lock for the playoffs unless something goes way wrong, but they will still have to fight for their playoff seed and a home playoff game. One more win locks up a playoff spot.
> = Division Leader
^ = Homefied Advantage
* = Locked Playoff Spot
