Looks like here the race for the title at least comes down to a Week 12 matchup between the Metalheads and the Riders, although the Metalheads have a lot of work left to do.

Sault Ste Marie Metalheads (9-1)
Big wins: none
Losses: Fire Horses
Who's left on the schedule: Riders, Toys, Tigers, Rush

The Elephant Riders (9-1)
Big wins: Rush, Toys, Tigers
Losses: Mountain Men
Who's left on the schedule: Metalheads

Thailand Cheap Toys (8-2)
Big wins: Rush
Losses: Riders & Fire Horses
Who's left on the schedule: Tigers & Metalheads

San Fran Gold Rush (8-2)
Big wins: none
Losses: Riders & Toys
Who's left on the schedule: Tigers & Metalheads

Palembang Tigers (8-2)
Big wins: none
Losses: Riders & Avalance
Who's left on the schedule: Toys, Rush, Metalheads

And what about those scary Fire Horses? Having already knocked off the Toys and the Metalheads, will they continue to impact the race? Nope, none of the contenders left on their schedule but watch out in the playoffs.

Garut is strange. They beat 2 of the top teams but then end up 5-5.

So beating an 8-2 Hell Valley team = no big wins for the 'Heads?

I'd be afraid to be the one to have to play them in the first round of the playoffs. You don't know which team your facing, the average 5-5 team or the team that beat us (Toys) and the Metalheads

I was only counting wins over the contenders in your own conference. Note that Cambodia didn't get credit for beating the Riders.

Looks good J. We had two tough losses. It should make for a dash to the finish line.

I am going out on a limb here and saying that the Riders, Metalheads, Toys, Rush, and Palembang will make the playoffs. That leaves 3 spots for 6 contenders: Avalanche, Horses, Cheetahs, Monks, Pretenders, and Tigers. Any guesses on how it will shake out?

Gotta go with the Horses, Pretenders, and Avalanche for my picks.

Here's my 2 cents

Sault Ste Marie Metalheads (11-1) has 3 upper ter games left but shouldn't finish worse than 14-2 (#1 seed)

The Elephant Riders (10-2) should finish at 14-2 (EZ schedule the rest of way) (#2 seed)

Thailand Cheap Toys (10-2) should finish worse case 13-3 (#3 seed)

San Fran Gold Rush (10-2) should finish worse case 13-3 (#4 seed)

That sure is a nice top 4.

Metalheads, Riders, Rush, and Toys have locked up playoff spots and pretty much have the top 4 seeds claimed. That week 16 Metalheads/Rush matchup looks to be the one that decides the seeding among these 4.

One more win clinches a spot for the Tigers and the Horses have a pretty light schedule the rest of the way, so put those two as near locks.

The Pretenders and Monks currently hold down the last two spots, but they meet in week 16 - a matchup that could knock one out of the playoffs. The Pretenders also have to deal with the Rush in week 15.

The Avalanche and Cheetahs are lurking just outside the picture right now. The Avalanche have the Horses & Riders yet, so it doesn't look good for them to make up the 1 game deficit. The Cheetahs will need at least one upset down the stretch with the Toys and the Tigers on their schedule.

The Maulers and Tigers are both still mathematically alive, but they will have to win out and get some help to sneak in.
