sorry for not posting the rankings the last two weeks - life has been extremely busy lately, it was even hard to find the time to put up a decent gameplan for my team against Copenhagen...
Alpha Rankings for Week 12
1 (1).... Valletta Vikings (11-0)
2 (2).... Geneva Plague (10-1)
3 (3).... Austrian Eagles (10-1)
4 (4).... New Orleans Bayou Bengals (9-2)
5 (5).... Glasgow Bravehearts (7-4)
6 (6).... Copenhagen VooDoo (8-3)
7 (10).. Rome Legion (7-4)
8 (7).... dax atlantique storms (6-5)
9 (9).... Stockholm Cows (5-6)
10 (8).... South Yorkshire Aftershocks (5-6)
11 (11).. Berlin Blaze (4-7)
12 (12).. St. Petersburg Knights (3-8)
13 (13).. Capri Elites (2-9)
14 (14).. Madrid Strikers (1-10)
15 (15).. Marseille Hitmen (2-9)
16 (16).. Leipzig Lava Flow (0-11)
Copenhagen has been the biggest surprise in the league so far, they had a shot at hosting a playoff game but got humiliated last week by the Eagles - honestly, I never ever expected this game to be that lopsided! they'll make the playoffs but they'll have to be road warriors. Rome somehow has turned their season around and has shown good football over the last few weeks - looks like they will make the playoffs after a so-so start to the season. South Yorkshire, on the other hand, has turned from hot to cold, they're postseason hopes took a big hit lately. Glasgow has also impressed me recently, I knew that they were better than their 1-4 record at the start of the season but they look like a serious contender now!
Alpha Games of the Week
#1 Valletta Vikings (11-0) vs. #5 Glasgow Bravehearts (7-4)
Hands down, Glasgow is the last team that can deny the Vikings achieving a perfect regular season. The Scots are one of the hottest teams in the league right now and nobody will want to face them in the postseason.
The Vikings will have their hands full with the Bravehearts, should be a great game to watch!
My prediction: Valletta by 10
#10 South Yorkshire Aftershocks (5-6) vs. #7 Rome Legion (7-4)
Winning this game is fundamental to both teams' playoff hopes. The Aftershocks slipped big after starting hot, Rome seems to have turned the tide after starting poorly. Looking at the last few weeks I'll go with the Legion, they played a decent game against Valletta and beat the Storms - they have the momentum on their side and should keep rolling.
My prediction: Rome by 14
