Caveat - I'm pulling this out of my ass. I don;t have the time to scout everyone's team and their opponent's team and then try to come up with a real game prediction. I'm just looking at record, chemistry, previous game performance and maybe 'strength of schedule' counting the pre-season games. And even that sounds too complex for me to do in a short amount of time before the games actually sim.

Western Conference: http://goallineblitz.com/game/league.pl?league_id=41&conference_id=81&playoffs=0

Note, games are not listed at the time of the creation of these predictions so I am going down the list and listing the games from the present top seed to the bottom.

Game #1 - San Dimas Sea Monkeys (#1 2-0) vs Indy Hellcats (#13 1-1) -- http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1193&team2=1506 -- I'm would like to call this one of the big upsets of the season. Indy has a quality team with some good builds and levels. They have a strong offense and have proven they can take out a tier 1 team. But I don't think it is going to happen. I was off on scores last week so I'm bumping numbers up a bit to compensate. San Dimas 153 - Indy 36.

Game #2 - Lewiston Raiders (#2 2-0) vs Savannah Skyhawks (#8 1-1) -- http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1426&team2=678 -- This is the matchup of the week, in my opinion. Both teams are very good teams and I believe they will make a game of it. It was a coin flip game and I give the edge to Lewiston but only just barely. Squeaking it out 52-49.

Game #3 - Kansas City Predators (#3 2-0) vs Summit Stations Stallions (#5 2-0) -- http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=732&team2=1533 -- This will be another tight game but I don't expect it to be quite as exciting as the Raiders/Skyhawks match but it will still be close. Still what match is a horse for a scary looking alien from space with laser beams? Predators win 27-20.

Game #4 - Fayetteville Fighting Tigers (#4 2-0) vs Topeka Gunners (#9 1-1) -- http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=69&team2=711 -- I'm calling this as my first upset. of the week. The Topeka Gunners can have a potent offense and defense and have something to prove after last weeks showing against the A-Town Dirty Birds. Besides.. F-14's/Modern Naval Hardware vs P-40 Warhawks. Sure the tub could take a pounding, but missiles are the shit yo. Topeka 38-31

Game #5 - Omaha Invaders (#6 2-0) vs Wellsboro Creeping Chaos (#12 1-1) -- http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=763&team2=1477 -- Both teams have put up solid efforts in the pre-season and current season but I believe Omaha has the edge in this matchup. The 'order' in Omaha resists the Chaos from Wellsboro, winning 31-21.

Game #6 - A-Town Dirty Birds (#7 1-1) vs Cleveland Elves (#14 0-2) -- http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1383&team2=1329 -- As much as I would like to see the preseason prediction for the elves start coming true, I believe that this week is not their week. A-Town is fighting mad and the birds are looking to do some eye pecking. They won last weks game convincingly and will do the same this week. Dirty Birds 66, Elves 12.

Game #7 - Gardner Paraplegics (#10 1-1) vs Los Angeles Ice Drakes (#15 0-2) -- http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1480&team2=1210 -- So the wicked new chairs gfd6600 purchased for his team oh wheelchair athletes will provide the trick to really put the Ice Dragons away early and putting them into a deeper freeze and an 0-3 start of the season. Paraplegics 72, Drakes 14.

Game #8 - Lakewood Lancers (#11 1-1) vs Austin Cyber-Demons (#16 0-2) -- http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1181&team2=738 -- The demons are a team clearly better than their record. They've just had the misfortune of playing some very tough teams to start their season. Expect them to come out with hell fury and put up big numbers against the Lancers. Demons 84-3.

No ego's were bruised in the writing of this preview. Its purely for fun and not done with any malice or intent to dis your team in any way. I'm pulling shit out of my ass just for entertainment purposes, but if it somehow inspires your loldots, feel free to post it on your respective locker room walls

Well I'm not sure I can keep this up week after week. Thats what the spreadsheet is for, but I'm trying to get some activity in the USA BBB#2 and per human nature, people generally tend to only post if they have something to bitch about.

Game #1 - San Dimas Sea Monkeys (#1 2-0) vs Indy Hellcats (#13 1-1) -- San Dimas 153 - Indy 36. (Correct, underestimated both defenses)
Game #2 - Lewiston Raiders (#2 2-0) vs Savannah Skyhawks (#8 1-1) -- Lewiston 52-49. (Raiders Upset - Skyhawks Win!)
Game #3 - Kansas City Predators (#3 2-0) vs Summit Stations Stallions (#5 2-0) -- Predators win 27-20. (Predators with a more convincing win than predicted)
Game #4 - Fayetteville Fighting Tigers (#4 2-0) vs Topeka Gunners (#9 1-1) -- Topeka 38-31 (Fayetteville stuns them in Topeka!)
Game #5 - Omaha Invaders (#6 2-0) vs Wellsboro Creeping Chaos (#12 1-1) -- Omaha winning 31-21. (Omaha wins in the best defensive game of the season so far)
Game #6 - A-Town Dirty Birds (#7 1-1) vs Cleveland Elves (#14 0-2) -- Dirty Birds 66, Elves 12. (Dirty Birds win but only barely)
Game #7 - Gardner Paraplegics (#10 1-1) vs Los Angeles Ice Drakes (#15 0-2) -- Paraplegics 72, Drakes 14. (Gardner wins bigger than predicted and their defense comes up strong)
Game #8 - Lakewood Lancers (#11 1-1) vs Austin Cyber-Demons (#16 0-2) -- Demons 84-3. (Demons win one they really needed to!)

6-2 this week, 12-4 for the year. Not bad considering I just look at the matchups screens and make shit up.

nice job man. just gonna tell you now, you're overrating summit. we might be the least deep team in the league and i'm the only coordinator. we're solid, but we can't really compete with that upper tier.
