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!

– The SOUTH GEORGIA GROWL up to the Average category

WESTERN CONFERENCE:
^ 1 ... Chicago Hedgehogs ... 14-1-0
^ 2 ... Minnesota Marauders ... 14-1-0
*3 ... Summer Rental ... 11-4-0
*4 ... New Jersey Battalion ... 11-4-0
*5 ... Austin Longhorns ... 10-5-0
*6 ... Bortsville Mystery Nerf ... 10-5-0
*7 ... Corpus Christi Illegal Aliens ... 9-6-0
8 ... Houston Toros ... 7-8-0


Eliminated: Columbus Bucks, D-League Dream Team, Tallahassee Seminoles, Dead Man's Hand, Timpanogos Thunder, and Las Vegas Flyin' Elvis.

Northwest Nighthawks dropped their last two games and now are sitting on the outside looking in. They’re in for a fight now against the Mystery Nerf and they’ll need some luck for the GROWL to lose their game. Things are looking good for the Nighthawks.

SOUTH GEORGIA GROWL pulled off a HUGE upset against the sleeping Hedgehogs and have put themselves in a good spot to make the playoffs. Can lightning strike twice if they make it?

Houston Toros came in and took care of the Nighthawks and now sit in the 8th seed as they enter the final game of the season. They face off with the Thunder which won’t be a walk in the park, but things are looking good for the Toros.

Corpus Christi Illegal Aliens get a HUGE win over Austin, but no one notices since the Hedgehogs lost this week as well. This could be big as they face off with the chemistry hurt Flyin’ E and should come out with another win. With Austin’s current slide, CCIA could move up in the rankings.

Bortsville Mystery Nerf are still hoping for a home playoff game, but they’ll have to face off with a hungry Nighthawks who are still trying to get into the playoffs.

Austin Longhorns two losses in a row going up against Chicago next; things aren’t looking great right now for the Longhorns. A loss here and they could drop down to the 7th seed.

New Jersey Battalion have a HUGE game against the Marauders and a win would mean a home playoff game. Can they keep up their pace?

Summer Rental is done for the season. They now have a shot at home playoff game?

Minnesota Marauders can’t drop down in the standings now, but they have a shot at the #1 seed if Chicago losses.

Chicago Hedgehogs lose and their perfect season is gone, but maybe they’ll have better luck in the playoffs now.

My playoff prediction is the Toros lose and the GROWL win to move up in the rankings for the 8th seed. The Battalion and Longhorns lose and the Mystery Nerf and CCIA move up. Here’s my playoff breakdown for the West:

1. Chicago Hedgehogs vs. 8. SOUTH GEORGIA GROWL

4. Bortsville Mystery Nerf vs. 5. New Jersey Battalion

2. Minnesota Marauders vs. 7. Austin Longhorns

3. Summer Rental vs. 6. Corpus Christi Illegal Aliens

EASTERN CONFERENCE:
^ 1 ... Grand Haven Mist ... 13-2-0
^ 2 ... South Otto Fragile Porcelain Mice ... 13-2-0
^ 3 ... The Blazing Chocolate Turtles ... 13-2-0
*4 ... Minneapolis Masterminds ... 12-3-0
*5 ... ***Official*** Footballguys ... 11-4-0
*6 ... Atlanta Purple Penguins … 10-5-0
*7 ... Over The Rhine Red Dots ... 10-5-0
*8 ... Vancouver Lions ... 8-7-0


Eliminated: Louisville Nighthawks, Detroit Demon Lions, Czech Yourself, Oregon Ducks, American Freedom, Tennessee Fury, Louisville Baby Kittens, and Pittsburgh Steel Riders.


Vancouver Lions lose, but with PSR and the Baby Kittens losing and the Lions getting a bye week to close out the season; they’ve clinched.

Over The Rhine Red Dots now has a bye week, but can’t move up since they lost to APP.

Atlanta Purple Penguins now have a tough match up, but they can’t move down in the rankings. A win here and they could move over the O.

***Official*** Footballguys have a HUGE game and if they lose they could move down in the standings and possibly have to face the Mice in the first round. A win here and they’ll get a home playoff game.

Minneapolis Masterminds need a win to keep a home playoff game, but a win could get them a higher seed as well.

The Blazing Chocolate Turtles have clinched a playoff spot and a home playoff game. Things are looking good for the BCT.

South Otto Fragile Porcelain Mice lose a close game and could possibly lose another seed with a tough matchup against the O. This is not the way to go into the playoffs.

Grand Haven Mist suddenly find themselves in 1st place in their first season back in the Pros! With almost a for sure win coming up, they look to lock up home field advantage for the playoffs.

My playoff prediction is the playoff stage is already set. Here’s my playoff breakdown for the East:

1. Grand Haven Mist vs. 8. Vancouver Lions

4. Minneapolis Masterminds vs. 5. ***Official*** Footballguys

2. South Otto Fragile Porcelain Mice vs. 7. Over The Rhine Red Dots

3. The Blazing Chocolate Turtles vs. 6. Atlanta Purple Penguins



*Clinched playoff berth
^ Clinched a home field game
> Clinched home field advantage

Back? This is our first time here. At least in USA. About half the team has played in OPL at some point in their careers though.


And, damn! We move into 1st place and we drop a spot in the rankings. That is harsh.

I'm pretty sure NWNHs are eliminated from the play-offs. Even if the Toros lose, growl won't and both teams have beaten us.

Yep, I can imagine you guys are getting pretty panicky about the Kampers locking up the three.

I think we needed better hydraulics for that this season. I felt pretty confident going into that last game since I actually stepped up and did the OAI for once in a very long time. I guess I need to stick to player builds. At least I don't suck at that.

Still a lot of shuffling that can occur here...

Mist probably win
South Otto and Official is a huge game... Sout Otto could drop to a 3 seed or Official could drop to 11-5...
Blazing looks like a safe win
Masterminds/Penguins match-up is huge... If the Masterminds win they keep a home seed, if the Penguins lose and OTR wins, OTR would slide up to a 6 seed with an Official win, if Official loses, OTR would then move up to a 5 seed due to owning the head to head against Official....
Vancouver can't move up or down...
Penguins could move up to a 5 seed with an Official loss and an Atlanta win... In that scenario, OTR would be a 6 seed.
If Official wins and the Masterminds lose, Official would slide into the 4 seed, dropping the Masterminds to a 5 seed.

No, it doesn't matter if we win. We beat the Longhorns and Nerf. that would be the tie breaker, so wither way we have the 4 spot.
