Gorgon League Power Rankings:
1. Ann Arbor Wolverines [#6 Tier] - After a slip up against Texas City, the Wolverines rebounded in Week 9 with a close win over Cleveland. Despite a few lackluster performances, Ann Arbor holds on to the top spot of this week's power rankings.
2. Los Santos Kings [#5 Tier] - Los Santos has been playing well, only allowing 6 points in their past 6 league games combined. They face off with a tricky Texas City team in Week 10. After that, they get a virtual bye against the Gentleman before heading into their final conference games, in which they went 0-3 at the start of this season.
3. Western Mass Monstars [#12 Tier] - They've won 3 straight in league and now head to Ann Arbor for a HUGE matchup against the Wolverines. This game will have major playoff implications for both teams as a win would keep them 1 game ahead of the Deadman Genesis. Meanwhile, a loss for the Wolverines would close the gap between the 4 teams in Beta by 2 games.
4. Deadman Genesis [#28 Tier] - Despite a loss to the Swamp Donkeys, they get the nod this week due to a huge win against The Fish in Week 9. They face off against the Unsavory Cupcakes in Week 10, before drawing Ann Arbor in Week 11. These next few weeks will really shape up the playoff race in Gamma.
5. Roman Testudo [#19 Tier] - William always seems to rise to the top by the end of the season. That's just what they look to do as they've now won 3 straight. Look for Roman Testudo to carry this momentum into the final 5 weeks.
6. Swamp Donkeys [#35 Tier] - A brutal loss against Los Santos has moved the Donkeys back a bit in our power rankings. They look to rebound in Week 10 against a scrappy Cleveland Vindicator team.
7. The Fish [#29 Tier] - The Fish have potential to be a championship sleeper, but need to find consistency on the defensive side of the ball. Fortunately, they are still very well alive for the playoffs and will look to make noise as a Wildcard.
8. Cleveland Vindicators [#31 Tier] - They're on the verge of being eliminated from the playoffs, but Cleveland is still a dangerous team that is capable of beating anybody in the league on any given week. They are good enough to finish the season 5-0, but could very well finish 2-3 in the final 5 games.
9. Michigan Madness [#43 Tier] - I really expected more out of Michigan this season. Offensively, they've been abysmal - only scoring 21 points in the past 5 games. We will see if they are able to turn it around and at least end the season on a good note.
10. Texas City Gamblers [#51 Tier] - After a huge upset against Ann Arbor in Week 8, Texas City carried that momentum into Week 9 with another win over Delaware. They now stand at 3-6 in league play.
11. Delaware Jaguars [#65 Tier]- Delaware has played a lot of close games this season, but can't seem to consistently end up on the winning side of them. Ahhh.. the fun of GLB!
12. Unsavory Gentleman [#67 Tier] - Well... if nothing else - They've won 2 straight ladder games.
