1. Alpine Golfers 8-0: We will know after this week who will be the real number 1 but I would be suprised if it is not Alpine. Their defense is the most dominant this league has seen since its induction. They score more than anyone I have seen on defense.

last week: 1

2. Naked Mole Rats 8-0: No doubt that are great and could certainly win over Alpine but a defense that gives up 300+ yards to the CAROLINA WOLFPACK should be ashamed and their is now way NMR will gain 700 yards on Alpine.

last week: 2

3. Northside Dreamkillers 7-1: Northside's defense looked great pitching a shut out on an increasingly dangerous Minnesota team. Held the ambush to 2 yards rushing on 40 attempts.

last week: 3

4. Kalamath Falls Grizzles 6-2: Kalamath came back strong against the cats and forced 5 turnovers to win the game.

last week: 6

5. Miami Canes 4-4: Yes I think the Canes are better than their record shows. They are solid all around and other than the hiccup to Athens, they have been respectable in every game thus far. They will be a playoff team.

last week: 9

6. New Orleans Golden Kangaroos 5-3: The Kangaroos lost a close one to a Canes team that looks like it has regained its dominance after a slow start. The Roos have to start shutting down the run or they will continue to loose games.

last week: 4

7. Battle Creek Bullies 5-3: The Bullies didn't show any fight against Alpine and were basically run all over. They are a playoff team but they will have to play better against better competition. A win this week against the Cats would make a nice statement.

last week: 5

8. Carolina Cardiac Cats 4-4: Carolina has turned the ball over 13 times in its last two games. 4 of those turnovers have been immediate scores and the rest have given excellent field position. The offense and special teams have put their defense in a horrible position yet the defense remains respectable all things considered. If they can hold the ball against Battle Creek they will win. If they cannot they may loose out on a chance to be in the playoffs.

last week: 7

9. RU Scarlet Knights 4-4: After a rough start RU has fought its way back to .500. Their game this week against Miami will have huge playoff implications. They just barely beat Harrisburg and were unable to stop their passing attack. This will have to improve.

last week: 8

10. Miami Roadfrogs 3-5: Congrats on the stat padding session last week. The goodness continues against Cleveland this week.

last week: 11

11. Minnesota Ambush 2-6: After a suprise win over Kalamath, Minnesota came out and held its own against Northside. They were horrible on offense, but the defense held the Dreamkillers to a paltry 13 points which is impressive. They are going to have to throw more than 9 times a game to win however.

last week: 10

12. Harrisburg Hawks 2-6: RU was a must win for Harriburg and they were unable to come away with it. I expect them to improve to 5-6 in the next three weeks but they will drop at least two games against Alpine and NMR and 8-8 will not be enough for a playoff appearance.

last week: 12

13. CAROLINA WOLFPACK 2-6: Piling up 300 yards on the Mole Rats was impressive. Buster Beasly was used as a receiver very effectively. He has elite speed. I expect them to beat Athens and stay in the league next season.

last week: 14

14. Athens Scoregasms 3-5: Athens actually game Cleveland a game and that is not a good thing. They will loose this week to CAROLINA but most likely avoid relegation because of the upset over Miami early this season.

last week: 13

15. Cleveland 1-7: They lost a tough one to the third worst team. They will finally be gone next season.

last week: 15

16. Orlando 0-8: Their QBs have been sacked 112 times this season making them pretty much dead!

last week: 16

Rush defense isnīt our major problem
- but Canes and RB Steven Wisby did a good solid job

...........5,5 yards/rush - 198,5 yards in the game

We knew that Miami would be a problem and tried our best
- but we just couldnīt get into the endzone

It is not fun to watch SIMīs 5 top preformers
#1 Steven Wisby, Miami
and then next four are all Roo-players

We did play a good game - Canes was just better on the day
Congratulation

no one cares about the east. Everyone knows the best teams are from the West.

And then we lose the next game. This is our entire season, win one, lose one, win one, lose one, etc. And it's not just that we lose. It's they way we lose that's frustrating. It's always something different.AAARRRRGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
