Warrior General Games

chicagopax. Thank you for putting all of the effort into the power rankings. I do have a question though. Why or how are the PTT Villagers above us? We beat them 17 - 0. Then it is odd that the Pittsburgh Steel Riders is ahead of us because they got beat by the PTT villagers? Just thought I would ask. Thanks.

I do agree on the point that if two teams have the same record, and Team A won the head-to-head match-up, there may be a good reason for Team A to be ranked ahead. However, there's probably a good amount of reasons that Team A might be behind. For instance...

The PTT Villagers may be ranked above you for a lot of reasons... maybe because they're on a 3 game win-streak in which they've outscored their opponents 102-7, whereas you barely eked out your last win, even giving up a safety. These are flexible power rankings, and right now, PTT has more power, more momentum, so I agree with chicagopax's rankings.

As far as the Midgets beating PTT and PTT beating the Steel Riders, that does not mean, under any circumstances, that the Midgets would beat the Steel Riders. The transitive property does not apply to sports. It just doesn't.

Well, we are playing our backups at and even pace as our starters in order to build great depth for when it counts. Our (midgets) defense is strong enought for us to forfeit some power early in order for the long run. Also, we play very conservative so our offensive numbers will never be sky high. We have also played the second toughest shedule out of anyone in BBB11 so far.

Uh oh you caught me.

Yeah that explaination is the general idea behind it.

But power rankings are supposed to be controversial and look how its working.

Also for this coming up games, please PM me your plays / POTW candidates so I can see them more organized.

Thanks,
CP

The Isotopes just couldn't pull out a win. 24-7 is pretty close though and we had some chances to make it closer.

GG to PTT, we knew we were out manned, we hung in as long as possible, 20-7 ... could have been worse.

GG to Serrao and the Vipers. You guys'll be tough to beat this year. But I'm hoping we get another shot at you.

GG to the Canes. The stop on the 1 right before time expired...Heart breaking.

10-3, 2 TD Drought for us.

Thanks it was a great game, I'm sure we'll go head to head again. Too many classy teams in this league, almost makes you not want to win and leave.

Big win by the Hogeyes this week to get back on track, next two weeks are really tough games I am hoping for 1-1.

my nominees this week are:
- Max Buckeye, in a reserve role rushed 22 times for 187 yards and THREE TD's

- Mike Hunt with an impressive 24 pancakes!

Omaha nominates CB Deon Stokes. 11 tkls and 2 ints.

7.Pittsburgh Steel Riders (1-0)
Background: When a backup corner shows up to play like Carl “CC” Chutney did, you can expect terrific results, including 8 tackles and even a touchdown reception when he got placed in at wide out. A solid team that will look to continue to roll.

8. PTT Villagers (1-0)
Background: PTT defense held Tom Rodgers, Enghave’s running back to a mere 23 yards and a total of 49 yards for the team. PTT’s quarterback Chaco Late would throw 3 touchdowns and only 1 interception, taking his team to victory.
