LION CONFERENCE
TOP DOG
1. Fullham (14-0)
Obviously it would take an epic collapse of the Hellfish to lose this No. 1 seed, and with games left against Kenya and West Yorkshire, that's simply NGTH.
SECOND BEST
2. The Franchise (12-2)
3. (T) Cagilari Outbreak (12-2)
3. (T) Massawa Redhorns (12-2)
Key Games remaining: Cagilari (12-2) vs. Massawa (12-2), Week 15
The Franchise have wins over Cagilari (76-24) and Massawa (70-21), which makes them a virtual lock for the No. 2 seed as long as they can avoid an upset by the Wamphyri (9-5) in Week 15. So the No. 3 and No. 4 seed will both be decided when Massawa and Cagilari hook up for what is sure to be an epic battle in the next game.
ROAD WARRIORS
5. San Francisco Demons (10-4)
6. Carthaginian War Elephants (10-4)
Key games remaining: None
This is pretty much set in stone here because of a 66-45 shootout earlier in the season between the two teams that the Demons won. So both of these teams will be in the upset seat for the first round of the playoffs, with their opponents to be determined by the Cagilari/Massawa game. Unfortunately, both of these teams lost to Cagilari and Massawa in the regular season, although the Demons played Massawa very tight at the start of the season. The War Elephants matched up well with both teams despite double-digit losses to each and have a win over The Franchise on their resume.
7. Wallachia Wamphyri (9-5)
Key games remaining: The Franchise (12-2) at Wallachia (9-5), Week 15
Even if the Wamphyri pull the upset over the Franchise next week, they'll still have to do it again in the first round of the playoffs because the Demons and the War Elephants won't lose again, and the Wamphyri wouldn't have the tiebreaker even if they did. At this point, the Wallachia war room should be all Franchise, all the time.
8. (T) Sahara Storm (7-7)
8. (T) Kenya Diggits (6-8)
Key games remaining: Sahara Storm (7-7) at Kenya Diggits (6-8), Week 15
Sahara has a game left against Cagilari in Week 16 and Kenya has a slaugher left against the Hellfish, so the game between these two will determine two things: who the No. 8 seed is, and if the final playoff team will actually have a losing record. Sahara could conceivably lose to Kenya and then beat Cagilari to steal back the spot, but that's a very unlikely scenario. Both these teams are merely playing for the right to be bitch-slapped by the Hellfish in Round 1, though. Also worth noting is that Uganda hasn't been mathematically eliminated yet, but they would need wins over the Franchise (very unlikely) and Sun City, a win by Kenya over Sahara and both teams to lose in Week 16 with Sahara giving up at least 80 points in each game.
