Credit goes to Triplemeathead for the idea. In my limited knowledge of dotball, I'll try to give a brief analysis and summary of the upcoming games. However, I'll be doing this for the Western Conference only, since I don't think I know enough about to East to do them justice.
On to the preview!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Week 10 Match Ups
Bold = My pick for the win
If both are bold = I have no effing idea. But I'll make a guess anyways. The ** gets my pick.
1.) Mississippi Mud Dogs (9-0) vs. Philly Pitbulls (4-5)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7881&team2=7872
MMD looks to continue its flawless run through the West and strengthen its hold in the conference. They've held their opponents to an avg. of 4.3 points a game, while scoring an avg. of 50.4 pts themselves. The Pitbulls sorely need a win to get into the playoff picture, but they will be hard pressed to win this one.
2.) The Agency (8-1)** vs. Chicago Terminators (6-3)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7889&team2=6771
The Agency, after posting six consecutive shut-outs on a soft schedule, is suddenly facing a very tough 4-game stretch, and faces the first part of that run against the Terminators, a team who is better than their record would suggest. Look for a close game here.
3.) Cleveland Warriors (8-1) vs. Madison Stronghorns (0-9)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7725&team2=7483
Another team that has suffered their only loss against the Conf. leaders, the Warriors look to have a very easy game here. The Stronghorns, who sit at 0-9, will be playing for pride.
4.) Chicago Mobsters (7-2)** vs. Semper Saints Jr. (3-6)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=6830&team2=6850
The Mobsters from Chicago take on the Semper Saints, who seem to have taken a step back from their competitive form last season, as they sit on a 3-6 record. The Mobsters stand at 7-2, but have also benefited from the softest schedule in the league thus far. Will the Semper Saints finally show up and snap their losing streak, or will the Mobsters put together a case that they aren't just a paper tiger?
5.) Thunder Bay Wolf Pack (7-2) vs. Sarasota Demons (4-5)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7799&team2=7628
A battle for placement. The Wolf Pack looks to secure their hold on a playoff spot, while the Sarasota Demons are right on the verge of getting in. However, the Pack's offense looks like it will be too much for the Demons to handle.
6.) Woodland Wildcats (6-3) vs. Blackfoot Broncos (3-6)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7738&team2=7648
The Wildcats are another team who I believe are better than their record would suggest, and they face off with the Broncos. The Broncos show that they're improving, but it won't be quite good enough for this one I think.
7.) Chico's Bail Bonds Bears (5-4) vs. Deep Creek Grizzlies (0-9)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=6875&team2=7756
Chico's Bears are looking to secure their playoff spot, and they couldn't ask for a better team to do so with. The Grizzlies at this point are playing for pride.
8.) Bowling Green Fighting Pups (1-8) vs. High School of Georgia Wildcats (0-9)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7754&team2=7779
Both of these teams will be out to prove they aren't complete flops this season. The Wildcats will be looking to earn their first win, while Bowling Green looks to build up some momentum to finish with a decent record. Whatever the Wildcats are doing, it isn't working so here's to hoping they put something together - after this game, they only have one more reasonable chance to win.
Discuss.
