Of course I noticed the D, I am the OC for Maine and was none too happy!

Thanks everyone for your kind support of the predictions.

Someone forgot to tell that to New Orleans ...


It looks like they've been told a couple of times already this season. They've got at least five levels on us at every position, and they're still getting blown out by teams they should, at the very least, be able to hang with based on build quality. They'll compete a lot better than we will because of those 5 levels, since levels are the only real division in GLB now.


Who's getting blown out exactly?


Is everyone stupid today?

i can promise you, the purples have the best builds in the league. I know this because everyone is a max roll and built perfectly. level>>>>>build and that sucks, especially with the vet pts.

BOO!!!

oh well, we will suck until season 13 now...
YAY!!!

I gotta disagree with you guys in K&B. Sure y'all have a right to be pissed, but you're not putting things into perspective. Be pissed that you're in A8 and not BBB15 or 16. That's the real problem. Perfect builds aside, you guys are competing against players that are 10-15 levels higher .... more in some cases. That translates into 50-75 build or more. Add to that the fact that your players were created basically in season 5. I have players created in season 1. That's roughly 160 more days of training, so you can figure another 40-50 skill points from that alone. Sure, you know how to build better due to experience, but any jackass can create a player that will beat yours if you spot them 100+ build/skill points.

Also, look at who you lost to. Claiming you lost due to levels alone is a little bit of a slap to Red River. It *MIGHT* be possible that they out game planned you. They're a good team - hell, the whipped my ass. Plus your other loss was to Burleson, who played in the championship last season. So we're not talking about cupcakes.

If you look at the league level guidelines, K&B has a strong arguement that they should be in one of the BBB's. I have no doubt that out of 512 BBB teams, K&B would be in the top 5. But out of 256 A league teams, you'll struggle to make the top 100. THAT's the real problem, the promotion system screwed you. You didn't even get a reach around, just a straight up plowing.

Classy as usual.

Do the rest of us a favor and keep the whining about how you guys got screwed over in your own thread. The rest of us don't need to hear that all season. Deal with it.

Houghton Gremlins v Buffalo Beasts
Houghton pulled out a very impressive victory over Manhattan with a dominate defense and nice passing game. Buffalo played better D against Maine than anyone has in a long time but lost due to a freakish number of special teams fumbles. Even so, I like Houghton a little better here. Houghton 21, Buffalo 13.


GG Buffalo
I guess I expected to win, but our D really put the screws on ya with 3 pick6.

Wow, that was an interesting day of games. I got all 8 games right, but some of the scores were way off! Everyone needs to watch their ass for Red River and Houghton, not to mention Montana. Should be a great season.
