Top 2 Games in the East:
Cincinnati Crush Vs Tallinn Tornadoes @ The Big House
The Crush at 7-0 and holding second in the west, host the Tallinn Tornadoes at 4-3. While the Crush have given up 44 pts in 3 home games, they remain undefeated and have put up 175pts on offense. The Tornadoes have lost the last 3 of 4 games and are looking to rebound. While they have struggled lately, they are still a team that can put pts on the board. 2 of their losses have come on the road this season. They have given up 50 pts and scored 117pts while away.
The Crush are the favorites in this one.
Kent Blood Ravens Vs Golden Gate Trolls @ Raven's Nest
The 6-1 Ravens who hold the 5th spot in the east host the 6-1 Golden Gate Trolls who are 3rd in the conf. The Ravens are coming off their first big win of the season as they knocked off Tallinn and are looking for the opportunity to finally prove themselves as a contender this season. That will be no easy task as they battle a very tough team from Golden Gate. The Ravens are 3-0 at home so far this season with only one of those games played that can be considered a challenge. However the Trolls are also 3-0 on the road and have put up some major numbers while away including giving up only 17 pts in those 3 wins. This should be a good one.
The favorite to win is Golden Gate.
Top 2 Games in the West:
Salem Cyber Hawks Vs Indianapolis X-Men @ Salem Stadium
This is the game of the week. The 7-0 Hawks are in first place and have had no struggles at all this season. They are one of the teams to beat without a doubt. This team is 3-0 at home and has scored over 100 pts in all three games...and they have only given up 10 pts in those 3 games. One of the few teams that may stand a chance at beating them this year is the X-Men. They are 6-1 on the year and have won the last 4 in a row. Right now they sit third in the division but are looking to shake up the standings a bit. The X-Men have played good ball on the road and are 3-0 while away. This team has proven that they can win, however with a pretty bad loss to Vatican, everyone is wondering if they have enough to knock off the Hawks.
The Favorite in this one is Salem
New York Empire Vs Kansas City Blackshirts @ Vanguards Stadium
This is another game to keep your eye on. Both teams are battling for the playoffs and as we get to the halfway point in the season, every game counts. The Empire are 5-2 on the year and are in 5th place while the Blackshirts are 3-4 and in 9th. The empire has looked solid this year and almost pulled off a win against the X-men early in the year. They are a solid team with some big play makers. While the Blackshirts have lost 4 games this year, each of those losses have come against teams that top both the East and West Confs. They have played some of the best early on in the season and have played them pretty well. Here they are again taking on another strong team in the east and hoping to turn some of those losses into Wins.
The favorite for this one is the New York Empire
