Here's the Ranking order as it looks to me after Week 9.And from the words of Cowpoker if you don't like it don't read it.
Teams that Clinch a Home Play-Off Game;
1)Texas ~ Until someone knocks Texas off I see them finishing as the #1 Seed and the Road to the Title Game will go through Texas.
2)Oakland ~ Although they lost the Reg. Season Game to Texas, I see these guys as the best Team in Zeta and I think they will pull an upset against Texas in the Con.Championship.If Sydney Wins out they will Drop to the #3 Seed.
3)Sydney ~ This Team is really showing how good of an Off-Season they had and are clearly in the Top of this Conference.They have a stout Defense but there Offense needs a few more games under there belt before they are the elite Team in Zeta.If they can hold off G-Long they will finish as the #2 Seed.
4)Geelong ~ This Team continues to under achieve by dropping a game to Storm Lake that they clearly should have Won. If Sehorn doesn't try to stay in AA next Season this Team could be tough come Play-Off time.
Teams making the Play-Offs as Away Teams;
5)Storm Lake ~ This team has had a easy Schedule to start the Season but I think with the Games they have coming up we will see that Storm Lake isn't as good as there Record shows.
6)Auckland ~ They had the toughest Schedule in the beginning of the year but they have rebounded nicely and if they can get past the Outlaws in Week 13, I see them winning out.
7)Hamilton ~ This is a good Team that just let the Bolts take advantage of them and it doesn't get any better for them with G-Long coming to town this week.They have a tough Schedule still left and they really need to pull off a few of those to make the Play-Offs.
8)Orlando ~ They are having a tough Season and they still have a couple of tough Games to play.I see them going 10-6 and going to the Play-Offs
Teams in the Hunt;
9)Sidney ~ The other Sydney Team looks to pull an upset this week against an overrated Storm Lake Team.They are a good Team but there lack of an Offensive Line really hurts there chances.
10)Hawaii ~ This Team by far had one of the toughest Schedule's having to play the Rebels in Week 1 and it hasn't gotten any easier for them.They have a chance to make the Play-Offs but with the remaining Schedule they have I see them missing out on making the Play-Offs.
