Okay here are the rankings after game 11.
Here is what I went by:
1) Record or win/loss
2) Strength of roster
LW = Last Weeks ranking
You may or may not agree with them, but this is how I see them.
****POWER RANKINGS****
#1 Pretoria Pigs (11-0) LW 1 - Well the Pigs are back from vacation and lookin fat and happy on top of the heap. But Lion Conferences David team is taking on the Goliath. It's Banghazi vs Pretoria up next in a battle for #1.
#2 Banghazi Barbary Lions (10-1) LW 3 - Wow! That is two #2 teams in a row Banghazi has knocked off! Do they have enough to beat the Boss Hogs up next?
#3 Texas Armadillos (9-2) LW 2 - The Armadillos will be looking to use Lagos like everyone else has, easy. But Lagos may pose a tougher challenge with their huge upset win.
#4 Taipei Little Fish Rangers (9-2) LW 4 - Two losses in a row for Taipei. They will still make the play offs, but is this a sign of things to come for them. This loss could really affect the play off seedings.
#5 The African Predators (8-3) LW 5 - Still on their vacay. 9-3 after next game. Nice tan Predators.
#6 Detroit Drive-By (8-3) LW 6 - Getting by Algeria and now facing a reeling Taipei squad, this is the right time for Detroit to make a move in the standings should they get a win over the Little Fish Rangers.
#7 Impending Doom (7-4) LW 7 - Seems like the Doom has gotten back on track with a win over Zanzibar and now go to Algeria to try and move up.
#8 Strong Badia Tires (6-5) LW 8 - Tires go on bot vacation just at the right time. While everyone else is left scrambling for a play off spot, they can easily add two more to the W column and continue a remarkable comeback. Have fun Tires.
#9 Algeria Desert Foxes (4-7) LW 9 - They need a lot of help from other teams if they want to make the play offs. With the Doom up next, is a comeback out of the question for the Desert Foxes? It will have to start with a win here.
#10 Lagos Eagles (4-7) LW 11 - Shocker of the season! Lagos upsets Taipei! Way to go Lagos Eagles!! Enjoy it while you can boys, the Armadillos are looking at you as the rebound chick.
#11 Zimbabwe Bulls (3-8) LW 10 - Looking at their remaining games, the Bulls could win 4 of the last 5. With losses from other teams and winning out the rest of their games, is that going to be enough to keep the Bulls play off chances alive?
#12 Nigerian Nightmares (3-8) LW 12 - A nice win over Zulu keeps them at the top of the bottom feeders club. Zanzibar is next, so go ahead and put a W next to that one.
#13 Zulu Brotherhood (2-9) LW 13 - Is the Brotherhood looking forward to their two game bot vacay after Zimbabwe?.........Hmmmm?...........You bet they are!
#14 Rwanda HellFish (2-9) LW14 - Beautiful Rwanda: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3131/2345822802_c50147bc30.jpg?v=0
#15 Zanzibar Face-Eaters (0-11) LW 15 - Oh those beautiful Zanzibar sunsets: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/120/298281542_c0b6edd7f4.jpg?v=0
#16 Djibouti White Tigers (0-11) LW 16 - Beautiful Djibouti beaches: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/36/108110827_9f7af49124.jpg?v=0
*****PREDICTIONS*****

Overall: 50-14
GOTW: 3-5
#12 Nigerian Nightmares (3-8) at #15 Zanzibar Face-Eaters (0-11) = Nigeria - Nightmares will take the Face Eaters mothers out for a nice seafood dinner and then never call them again.
Game Rating: 4/6 Beers
#11 Zimbabwe Bulls (3-8) at #13 Zulu Brotherhood (2-9) = Zimbabwe - Bulls need to make a move and get a win here.
Game Rating: 3/6 Beers
#14 Rwanda HellFish (2-9) at #8 Strong Badia Tires (6-5) = Strong Badia - Continue the comeback while on your two game bot vacation.
Game Rating: 1/6 Beers
#7 Impending Doom (7-4) at #9 Algeria Desert Foxes (4-7) = Doom - Doom is just too much for the Desert Foxes.
Game Rating: 3/6 Beers
#16 Djibouti White Tigers (0-11) at #5 The African Predators (8-3) = Predators - This one will be like playing Madden on rookie level.
Game Rating: 1/6 Beers
#10 Lagos Eagles (4-7) at #3 Texas Armadillos (9-2) = Texas - Does Lagos have enough to keep playing spoiler and get two big upset wins back to back? Take the Armadillos.

Game Rating: 6/6 Beers

*GOTW*
#2 Banghazi Barbary Lions (10-1) at #1 Pretoria Pigs (11-0) - #2 takes on #1! It's a dream match for the dominating Pigs and a fairy tale for the upstart Barbary Lions! Pigs vs Lions in a GOTW showdown! I hear Al Michaels and John Madden will be calling the game! Good luck to both teams!
This Week's Overall Beer Rating:
27/48 beers - Our highest rating yet! Lets pop open those bottles and get to work! Two really good games this time, but #1 vs #2 takes the cake!
Good luck to all the teams in Lion Conference! !
