Columbus held the Pimps to 124 yards. On the other hand, Vermont poured 727 yards on us.


Vermont is an awesome team, but I'll pick Columbus 23-17.

Imma have to go with.....VT. Columbus barely scratched one out against us, while VT handily handed us our asses. Besides, cant let them hit the playoffs undefeated yo!

I really think they may have overlooked you guys tbh DK. I dont mean to sleight you guys, but i know they put in 100% against us and pulled out the win. That tells me they should have beaten you guys a lot more soundly. I think they'll be back to 100% focus for the game against VT though, so i dont expect VT to win by much, but i do think they will head into the playoffs with the #1 seed.

Good luck to both teams!

Its 2 good teams. Both of which beat the Wolves this season. VTs D is tough and always has been. I know both teams are going to be scouting each other untill they see Dots in their Sleep...

I think it will be a very close game though

Winner locks down #1 seed what a great schedule that sets this up as the last conference game of the year.

Played Vt 26-17 and played Columbus 41-13.

I am sure both teams have improved in both build and tactics since those scrimmages.

Neither team plays enough scrims for my taste which I think are an excellent way to continue to refine your tactics through either discovering what is flawed in your own plan, or through seeing other team's successful plans.I also don't see either owner on any of the coordinator forums which I think also helps you get different advice etc.

It could be they have a life outside of GLB or get their info from other sources because in spite of that they both play well.

Both owners seem like quality folks (Tomcollins has recovered nicely after a rough start).

Just like Austin/Putnam from this week, this game has Game of the year written all over it. The thing is, I am not sure if winning or losing gives one or the other an easier road to the title. Nashville potentially awaits the loser as the #3 seed, and Crimson potentially awaits the winner as the #4 seed.

My pick-Colombus, but I will be rooting for the old guard VT Storm!

even if we were overlooked we are a team full of inactives where we cant change their settings or use their skill points. So even though we have high level people they prolly have 3-4 levels of unused points sitting there. So we are much weaker. A strong team should hand us our asses no matter what but columbus eeked it out. VT for the win.

Inactives don't mean much at this point, level 32 players don't get skill points very often anyway. We outgained Manhattan by 150 yards, and they only kept it close by getting a few lucky turnovers.

The game will come down to turnovers. I think whoever has the edge there will win the game. We have the longest winning streak in GLB right now, so hopefully it stands. This will be our toughest test in almost 2 seasons, when we pulled a huge upset unboosted against Naperville last season.

Vermont has played better this season, with the exception of their loss. Anything can happen, but I have to say they are the favorites. We won't be using any temp boost gimmicks, so that might also put us at a disadvantage if Vermont does.

inactives mean alot if they have been inactive for a LONG time as ours have. An inactive for 5 days no biggie but try over 50. That sucks especially when its 50% of ur team.

I'm going to predict VT in a very close one. We had a very close game with the Woodys, while Vermont blew us out.

New Training system makes it hurt even more if you are inactive.

I'm going to stay out of this one, and look forward to running into them again in the playoffs.

Should be a great game, but I'm thinking VT is gonna edge out the Woody's.

Not really. You gain one point every few days training. It's not really that significant. Of course, 50 days inactive can make a difference, since even high level players are leveling up several times there.

I just cant wait till the offseason so that we can start getting some fresh talent.
