WEEK 7 RANKINGS (R = USPL rookies this season, WL = i'm sure you can figure it out)
WESTERN
1 South Georgia Growl - Still getting it done and it looks like they'll face their first tough opponent next week when Monmouth comes to town.
2 5th Masterminds - Dominated Covington and next is a Tulsa team that has struggled a little against tougher teams.
3 Vancouver Lions - Another easy game coming up.
4 Chicago Hedgehogs (WL) - Tough loss to MEM costs them top billing this week.
5 Stormwind City Gryphons - Still riding an easy schedule but week 8 could be their shot to make a big statement against the Lions.
6 Monmouth Evil Monkeys - Big win over Chicago couldn't come at a better time. Can they get it done against the Growl next week?
7 Tulsa Storm - Tulsa needs to bring their A game the next 3 weeks or they'll be lucky to squeak into the playoffs as a low seed.
8 Canton Bulldogs - 2 game win streak and next up they face Stormwind. That game should reveal which team is to be taken more seriously.
9 Covington Black Knights - The tougher schedule is starting to expose the Knights and they'll be 4-4 shortly.
10 Sin City Spoilers - Can they bounce back against the Fieldsmiths next week?
11 Bay Area Bombers - Another rough outing but the next few weeks things get a bit easier.
12 Arkham Asylum Jokers - Big win over Mutants and should make it 2 in a row next week.
13 Michigan Mutants (R)
14 Inner City Fieldsmiths (R)
15 Felicus Feline Generals (R)
16 Philadelphia Knights (R)
EASTERN
1 College Station Aggies - Another easy win and next they face undefeated Oakland.
2 South Otto Fragile Porcelain Mice - Just a repeat of last seasons domination so far but don't overlook the Groundhogs after they down ATKM.
3 All The King's Men - Back to winning and next week will be more of the same.
4 Oakland Suppressors - Rough month ahead will reveal how good this undefeated team really is.
5 Las Vegas Gold Diggers - Dominated Wala and have a decent match-up with ACA next week that could get them over .500.
6 Denver Giant 9'ers - Still getting it done and have now won as many games as they did all of last season.
7 Atlantic City Affliction - Looking good right now and have a shot to move up with a win over LV next week.
8 Nashville Hounds - Big win for the Hounds and they should take their next 2 easily.
9 Punxsutawney Groundhogs - Gave up a TD, 2 pt conversion and FG in the last 2 minutes that not only tied the game but handed them a loss.
10 Gulf Coast Crocs - Crocs are in a big hole right now and it's hard to see them pulling out of it.
11 Wala Wala Drunken Shriners - Could notch a win next week but I don't see them going anywhere this season right now.
12 "The Combine's" Tennessee Fury (R) - Another tough loss but should get a W next week before facing the Aggies.
13 Philadelphia SEXY Demonik
14 OffTopica Grace (R)
15 Hell's Demons (R)
16 Midwest Warbirds (R)
PREDICTIONS
Chicago vs Covington - Knights are being exposed.
Canton vs Stormwind - Trap game for the Gryphons?
Fieldsmiths vs Spoilers - Spoilers not as bad as record suggests.
Philly vs Jokers - Bye week.
5th vs Tulsa - Great match-up but Tulsa not showing signs of improvement this season and have almost matched last seasons loss total already.
Mutants vs Bombers - Toss up.
Lions vs Felicus - Blowout
Oakland vs Aggies - Oakland with big shot at statement if they can get the upset.
Groundhogs vs Mice - Mice too good.
Warbirds vs Wala - Midwest hasn't shown anything this season.
Fury vs SEXY - Fury should be able to take this one.
Diggers vs ACA - Another great game and I'm going with AC to take this one by a narrow margin.
Grace vs ATKM - Blowout
Crocs vs Denver - Denver continues their impressive run.
Demons vs Hounds - Blowout
GAME OF THE WEEK
SGG vs MEM - MEM with a shot to knock off another top team this week and this should be a good game that will come down to who makes the fewest mistakes.
