It is of course too early to break this one out. I don't care, let's all laugh at these predicted results. I won't be around tomorrow so we get it a day early.

Alpha Games

Alice Springs -520 vs Williamsport Soul Reavers
Darwin Mud Crabs +123 vs Easter Island Maoi
Illesheim Krauts +18 vs Paula Pimp Smackers
Manilla Gorillaz +137 vs Sydney Sea Dragons
New Age Steel Curtain +41 vs Vanuatu Gunslingers
Ohio Valley Ironmen -44 vs Tasmanian Devils
Newcastle Surfers -17 vs South Australia Serial Killers
Thatto Heath Teeth Smashers +14 vs The Throwback Cowboys

Zeta Games

Brisbane Brown Bears +403 vs Cimmerian Barbarians
Chinese Bandits -18 vs Uluru Rockies
Christchurch Knightmares -63 vs Solomon Islands Alchemy
Coney Island Warriors +223 vs Mauna Kea Chenabongs
Dunedin Wolverines -166 vs El Fuego
The Four Horsemen -30 vs Tonga Thunderbirds
Los Cabolo Sharks -111 vs Redscape Diplomats
Tasmania Devils -44 vs Tasmania Sand Gnats

So, um, the spreadsheet is predicting a lot of blow outs. I doubt we'll see scores like this. Still, I'll take the 520 points it thinks I;ll win by this week. I can't wait for cdcollins to flip out when he sees this thing thinks he's the underdog in his game.

Brian, you are right, collins will flip. Maybe rightfully so, or we shall see.

Heh, this is hilarious. I can't even flip out over this, as many of these scores are so laughable!

Alice Springs -520?! Darwin +123?! Manilla +137?! Brisbane +403?! Coney Islands +223?! Dunedin -166?! Cabolo ONLY -111?! Add Tonga to that mix, and I'd run Vegas out of business this week!

Brian, I appreciate the time it takes you to do this. It's always a blast. I have a ton of respect for the Horsemen; if they beat us by 30, they'll have truly, honestly earned it.

Yeah, I guess a week like this only being a 30 point underdog leaves you as a pretty close match up. My favorite is my game. I have a feeling it is because Newcastle crushed the Soul Reavers in week 1 and then I just crushed Newcastle so... I guess the spread sheet thinks that means it should like multiply the two point difference to get mine.

I do think at least somewhere we'll see another 100 point win this week though. There are just too many gutter teams for no one to give up some ridiculous numbers.

What kind of odds are you giving? I'll take Tonga to cover.

I do get a kick out of Mauna Kea as 223 point favorites over Coney. Might they win, sure ... but didn't they "only" beat Brisbane by 194 or something?

Thanks!

I don't know on the odds, probably low. I just put my house and cars up as collateral! Now, if the Horsemen do whip us by 30, I'll eat LOADS of crow.

Bank on this... that spread, -540.. You will NOT score over 500 points on us. I gurantee that's b.s.

I can't even imagine it even being possible to score 500 points. I mean, I don't know how someone would even do that. There isn't enough time.

figure onside kicks recovered non stop... with 7-10sec per kick to be run in for TDs... lol. good for atleast 2500points, a bit more if you go for 2

kickoff
incomplete pass
incomplete pass
incomplete pass
punt return for TD
repeat


sprinkle in some scores off turnover, 50 yard TD runs/receptions after non-TD returns of punts, and 500 points is easily doable if the non-CPU/slowbuild team is very good.

You can neither kick onsides nor go for 2 in GLB.

Haha, this is pretty much right. I have seen teams get nearly 400, though, playing Level 25+ players against Level 1-5 guys. Just absolute demolition. I'll certainly tip my cap to them if they can pull off that stunt!

Did someone say stunt?

Man, I look at the game where Christchurch scored 311 and I still can't believe they did that.
