I won't do a power rankings every week, but here it is for the pre-season. I'll do another at mid-season as well. This is a very balanced league, so it's very easy for me to see that my #12 could finish as my #5.

Look for my "Games of the Week" post for Eastern Conference match-ups.

Rank - Team
1 - Toronto Thunder (Overall Season 6: 11-14 )
A strong finish last season propelled them into the playoffs after a slow start. They're looking to build on that momentum and make a run for it all this season.

2 - Windsor Warhammers (Overall Season 6: 12-11 )
Games are won and lost at the Line of Scrimmage. The Warhammers are very solid here on both sides of the ball.

3 - College 6-Year Plan (Overall Season 6: 28-1)
After a blistering Season 6 in BBB#10, this team is looking once again show what a slow-build team can do. Don't be fooled by their Level 23 roster. Their builds and tactics will set you straight in a hurry. This should be the best of the BBB teams that were promoted.

4 - Mighty Moncton Nighthawks (Overall Season 6: 19-7)
Their only regular season loss in BBB#10 last season is ranked above. Another solid team looking to make some noise after being promoted.

----This is the "I drew teams out of a hat" Line----

5 - Port Dover Panthers (Overall Season 6: 9-13 )
Another solid line. This is also another team that started slow but finished strong last season. Don't let the low level roster fool you. This team is built solid and gets it done with tactics.

6 - Thunder Bay Hitmen (Overall Season 6: 10-12)
This is a team that could've done better last season, but lost their owner in the preseason, along with 40% of their roster. They re-grouped well and made the playoffs. They're looking to build on that success in Season 7.

7 - Thunder Bay Marauders (Overall Season 6: 20-5)
Here's the best of the BBB#9 promotions. They were already solid coming into the season, and added some strength to their roster in preparation for Season 7. A team that will make you earn every yard.

8 - Nova Scotia Lions (Overall Season 6: 20-6)
Another solid team from BBB#10. I'm looking for a lot of the promoted teams to make some serious noise in this league this season.

9 - Black River Rats (Overall Season 6: 27-5)
Hoping to represent BBB#9 Well. Solid team, with a balanced attack. Low levels, Good Builds.

10 - Napa Storm (Overall Season 6: 22-8)
Another good team from BBB#9 hoping to make noise. Excellent tactics. Solid Defense.

11 - Guelph Cows (Overall Season 6: 16-6)
Their only regular season losses last year were to the 3 BBB#10 teams ranked ahead of them. They could very easily slip up into the Top 5 or 6.

12 - Yukon Effyourself (Overall Season 6: 5-17)
This team could be a sleeper. It looks like they've really made a lot of acquisitions in the offseason.

----Here ends the "I drew teams out of a hat" line----

13 - St. Catherine's Stompers (Overall Season 6: 9-13)
Solid team from last year's A#5. They're not extremly out-leveled, but need to improve on their tactics to compete.

14 - Great Lakes Rum Runners (Overall Season 6: 5-19)
Same Story as St. Catherine's. They've got a few horses to compete here. Just need to dig deep for the answers.

15 - Quebec Eagles (Overall Seaon 6: 10-12)
I think they're Out-Leveled by too much to make a serious run.

16 - Ottawa Strom Troopers (Overall Season 6: 5-17)
See Quebec.


***Disclaimer***
I'm only posting these because I was asked to. I do not claim to be a psychic, and in all hoesty have no clue what I'm talking about. These power rankings are for entertainment only and are intended for use in gambling (Unless you win, then I want a cut!).

I'm hoping that our scrimmage with you in Toronto last season tells us here in Black River that we'll be able to compete well in this league.

I hope so. That's the thing about going 27-5 like we did.
Our reward is getting moved up so we can get our asses kicked.

All of my agents are prepared for a sub-par season, and we plan to tough to beat next season.

Good post, Moncton might be too high At least we're not picked last, gotta like that. I think my team is ready for some growing pains this season.

Nova Scotia beat Moncton in the playoffs last year.

Moncton is a good team though. Nova Scotia and Moncton are pretty close IMO.
C6YP is a class above those two with their outstanding gameplanning.

If your rankings are accurate, that makes the second season in a row that the FMMP have had to play the 2nd ranked team in the East in the opening day crossover game. Hopefully, they're not as good as advertised.

Nice work up. Seems spot on from what I know about the east...and that is very little.

I know this about the east: it is an embarrassment to A5.

I beat them 51-0 last season, so don't worry too much about it, man. (No offense Windsor).
