Frankly, your opinions have been off all season. In all seriousness, the conferences aren't even close and that's obvious.
and your wisdom is based on what? Does your crystal ball tells you that Alpha is better? If so than please announce the season 27 GLB champs and we all could save a lot of time and start the offseason today.
Its pretty easy and clear to see Alpha is better. bolick isnt being biased at all here.
Originally posted by jdbolick No one would take Mayan or Nairobi over HHWC, Carthage, Hood, or Odessa and you probably wouldn't take them over GBB, Indy, or Sofia. We're the only top 8 team in alpha who lost in Week 1 and that's only because I'm the worst OC in GLB and screwed up my OAI. Meanwhile E-City, Bogotá, Alpine, and Nairobi all lost to non-playoff alpha teams. Originally posted by jdbolick Alpine only beat 0-16 World Legends by a touchdown.
Originally posted by evileyez the game has matured to the point that most coordinating teams know exactly how much effort they need to put in to make the playoffs. not sure you can make any judgement based off records or seeding nowadays.
Pretty much this.
The regular season is both less and more important than it used to be. On one hand, you have to pay a bit more attention because of the increased competition and parity because if you slack too much, even good teams like Mojo, HHWC, Alpine, VDA, Hood can miss the playoffs and each of them have had close calls the past few seasons. However, the top 8 teams are so much closer than it used to be so the seeding really doesn't mean anything anymore. You're going to need to win 3 tough games regardless. Plus, you never know when you'll have the previous season conf champ VDA as the 8 seed as your reward for finishing #1.
That said, the regular season in both conferences didn't play out much different than we all thought. The teams expected to be playoff locks did for the most part other than Cincy who was really close.
I see 1 WL Title for Zeta by Korb and that was last season.
I see 6 WL Titles for Alpha. 3 by HHWC, 2 from Odessa and 1 from Hood.
Before you say it I realize those are in the past but none of them have demoted and have been regulars in the playoffs. The above alone makes Alpha superior.
