#1 -- SLS reached the top and has to stop. One week after defeating the former #2-ranked DD 27-14, SLS handed the former #1-ranked LOL their first loss of the season by a score of 26-17. SLS started the game slowly but picked up the pace in the second half, scoring 17 unanswered points to close out the game. With Durban and Zimbabwe as two of their final three games, SLS should enter the playoffs as Elephant's top seed unless Cairo sees something useful in the Nairobi, Somalia, and Mogadishu games and pulls off the upset of the season in week 15.
#2 -- Although LOL's stay at #1 was short, it's possible they could still catch SLS in strength of record before the season is over. But at this point, LOL needs to worry about their week 16 game against Somalia or risk losing Elephant's 2nd seed for the playoffs.
#3 -- DD beat Zimbabwe by a score of 97-0 to remain in third place. After 342.5 yards of offense and only 14 points in week 12, DD had 794.5 yards of offense and 83 more points in week 13. The obvious difference was Tea Baggins going from 18 plays to 30 plays. Coincidence?
#4 -- Somalia continued their late-season push and climbed two spots after a 22-3 victory over Mogadishu. These guys will face DD and LOL in weeks 15 and 16 to show they belong at the top. Win both and they're Elephant's 2nd seed. Lose both and they still have a home game as the 4th seed.
#5 -- DeSWK won big against Zambia but lost ground in strength of record to fall one spot. Despite currently being Lion's top seed, they'll have to fight hard in their final three games to avoid dropping to the 4th or 5th seed.
In the rest of the top 10:
* Seychelles Island moved back up to #6 with a 62-31 victory over the Ridgebacks
* Sahara moved up to #7 by shutting down ASM in the second half of a 53-17 win
* ASM dropped three places to #8 after the disappointing loss to Sahara
* TLGoT moved up to #9 with a 30-19 win against ABD
* Windhoek dropped one spot to #10 after a 104-19 blowout win over Red Sea
