4/13/14 Notable Ladder Games
#1 Acheron Xenos vs. #1 Nigerian Minimares
http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/compare_teams/80/6762 Strong teams, battling out for #1 in the volatile rookie ladder. Not surprisingly with the uncountable talented teams, no more undefeated teams remain. This will be a great midseason clash, featuring some the greatest ball that S3 Rookie has to offer. Xenos and Minimares are both #1 for the simple reason: They score, and they deny their opponent of scoring. Not really sure how this game will turn out, I just know it will be a great show.
Prediction: Xenos pull off the win. 21-17
#3 Victorious Secret vs. #5 Buffalo Beasts of Bourbon
http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/compare_teams/684/738This is a great matchup, two of the better rush attacks in the game square off. What I am excited to see is Slow and Fat face off against Jessie Andrews. Two of the best producing RBs in rookie going at two great run defenses. Don't expect much passing folks... Expect 60 minutes of both teams pounding the run game.
Prediction: Victoria slays the Buffalo. 28-17
#8 Baby Banger vs. #7 Sexy Dance Fighters
http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/compare_teams/334/712Another game showing two great running offenses, which seems to be all rookie is this season... Baby Banger who caught my eye with a very impressive recent string of performances, including the extremely impressive fact that they have not conceded 1 point in league play. Not sure if there is another team in all of rookie that can boast this achievement. SDF, who are quite capable of putting up big numbers game after game, bring a scoring threat to the formidable BB defense. Who will win?
Prediction: Baby Banger stays hot. 27-17
#12 Shangri-La Dragon's Revenge vs. Yorick's Gravediggers
http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/compare_teams/440/695This will be a great test for the Gravediggers. The high powered Dragons Revenge offense come to face what has become a sloppy Gravediggers defense. It is easy to underestimate Shangri-La sitting at #12, but I equate that solely to the fact that they have had the misfortune of playing Xenos twice, With very impressive showing and close finishes. Yorick's however, sporting 3 losses, in which all three were blowouts have become very suspect on Defense. Let's see if Yoricks run game can get through the very very tough, and an easy top 5 overall team, Shangri-La Dragon's Revenge.
Prediction: Yorick digs its own grave. 37-14
#19 Rhode Island Falcons vs. #25 Live Oak Eagles
http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/compare_teams/633/711RIF, a solid team, faces the lit Oak Eagles. This will be a good game featuring two solid offenses duking it out against not so solid defenses. Eagles show a very good balanced offense and RIF will bring their sharp pass attack. The real question here is how will both defenses perform? RIF would have an easy road to victory against the not so great run defense of the Eagles, but... They don't run the ball... I expect the Eagles to take full advantage of their good pass defense, and use both sides of the offensive attack to seal this game away. Match up not looking so great for RIF in my book.
Prediction: 17-14
