Week 1 Match-Ups
WalMart v. Peoria
Overall Score as of 3/16: 24 v. 18
WalMart will put this game away faster than their Jimmie Johnson shirts sellout in the spring. Peoria is still full of level 1 dots and will have a hard time overcoming a team I pick to be a title contender in the East.
I’m not going to go out on a limb with score predictions yet, I need to see what people are going to bring to the regular season. Sorry.
MOJO v. Mason County
12 v. 27
Mason County will roll through this CPU owned team. A great opportunity for some stat padding and highlight reel runs. The only question is if Permian will have enough mojo to score one TD.
Bedford v. Samba
18 v. 24
Samba should have no trouble pillaging Bedford. Their powerful run gain should have a field day against the level 1 front seven dots Bedford will send out against them. Samba ran over a Tennessee defense I picked to be one of the league’s tops.
Lancashire v. 10 Years
27 v. 12
If the Wolverines QB puts on some equipment and closes his bid he should be able to run up, down and all over this defense. In the end Lancashire will make these Psycho Gorillas look like nothing but poo throwing chimps.
Wookiees v. Otago
27 v. 21
I don’t know if Otago is going to use their multitudes of cpu punters to fill in their roster for non-Iron Man games, but either way I don’t think they will have the depth to stand up against these walking carpets. The Wookiees have shown the ability to score in bunches and will continue to do so against the Irons.
Philadelphia v. St. James
21 v. 12
Philly will have no trouble rolling over this cpu team. Their lack of depth shouldn’t be exposed in this one.
Toronto v. Cliché
18 v. 24
Toronto has too many cpu players on their roster to put up a sustained fight against one of the top teams in the East. Cliché moves to 6-0 overall an 1-0 for the season.
Bortsville v. Waianae
21 v. 18
The first game that I am going against the overall team rankings, but I think the Seariders have the roster to shake their 1-3 start and ride on to a win. If the Nerfs can score quick and often they might be able to keep their offense refreshed enough to hold on for a win… but I don’t think they can
OSU v. Springfield
24 v. 9
A gutted Isotope roster won’t do anything to stop the Tattoo Gate All-Stars from hitting their peak potential. Luckily the NCAA has no jurisdiction over GLB, otherwise a few of these dots would be watching from the sidelines and ODOGG45 would be watching from the locker room. He should ask for GLB to make a few changes to the staff though, cause after taking the fall for the department he owns everything and everyone in Buckeye Country now.
Yorkshire v. Le Mars
In a battle between two cpu rosters can the human AI beat the cpu? I think they can and will.
Florida v. Tiger Blood
21 v. 24
In true Carlos Estevez style Tiger Blood will head to Florida to chop up the Stingrays. Hopefully they don’t try to snort this batch though. TB’s player levels should allow them an easy victory, but watch out… this load may have a hot shot that knocks FFA out for good. I doubt it. #winning
Rochester v. Tokyo
15 v. 24
It’s way too soon for any jokes here, so I will play this one straight. Tokyo wins this one due to a predominantly cpu opponent. I predicted they would go 2-0 before playing the Wookies, and it all starts here. They should win in a romp.
Ty-Isaf v. Show Me
24 v. 6
Ty-Isaf wins this laugher against a cpu opponent. They asked to see Ty’s TDs and they should be able to give them all they can handle. T-I should be able to fill a DD bra with all the TDs they’re gonna show them. I might have been able to come up with some more witty comments here, but I have no clue what their team name means.
Chocolate Eels v. Tennessee
24 v. 27
In what I consider to be the marquee match-up of the week (my article, my opinion!!) we have two teams I see fighting for the top spots in their respective conferences. A few small holes in the Tyrants roster, plus a lack luster pre-season force me to lean toward the Eels. The Chocolate wonders were the only team in the league to go scrimmage crazy in the pre-season and it revealed a team who loves to run the ball and squirt their way down the field.
Pudong v. Colonial
18 v. 24
The Zoners have a 3 game shutout streak going, but it is jeopardy against a team that loves to set the sky on fire. Colonial has yet to show regular success against the pass, but the Dongers have yet to show any success period. They should expect more of the same in week 1 and start the season off in the dumps.
Ft. Gordon v. Plymouth
24 v. 15
Ft. Gordon could go commando in this one and still make off with all these Pirates' loot. When your only human dot is a kicker you have a hope for some good tactics, and they haven’t shown they have that either. The Pirates shouldn't even bother coming ashore for this one. Hooah!!
