After The Firebirds upset DC last game there are no unbeatens left.
I had written it up with the predictions in my teams forum, but not here, so I only missed one last week. Easy week to pick this time. Good Luck everyone. (althought I wouldn't mind a Chicago loss!)

DC (11-1)(1st) VS Bay City Bombers (0-12)(16th)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=460&team2=993
---Easy victory for DC.

Sub Plots to the game:
*********DC has already clinched a playoff spot, and despite the loss to the Firebirds retain the #1 seed due to tie Breakers. Only have 1 team left that is in this write up, and one game agaist possible spoiler Flathead.


Flashpoint (11-1)(2nd) VS College Station (7-5)(8th)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1420&team2=1454
--------Flashpoint win.

Subplot's to this game:
*********Kansas has also clinched a playoff spot, but has 4 games against playoff teams remaining.
*********A loss by Kansas can drop them to the 3rd seed.
*********A loss by College Station would still leave them in 8th as they own the tie breaker over Nevada but would put them in danger of dropping out of the playoffs at the last minute.


Key West (11-1)(3rd) VS Amarillo (2-10)(14)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1432&team2=1405
--------Key West Victory

Subplot's to this game.
********* Already clinched playoff spot.
********* A Key West win keeps them at 3rd seed (2nd if Kansas loses).
********* A Key West loss just keeps them in 3rd.

Chicago Commando's (9-3)(4th) VS Kansas Twisters (7-5)(7th)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=1457&team2=687
------- Game of the Week Chicago needs this win more than Kansas, but Kansas would like to give themselves a little breathing room. Upset? Chicago Wins

Subplots to this game:
******** A Chicago win holds them in the 4th seed.
******** If Kansas and College Station lose,and Nevada wins Kansas would still be in a playoff spot and still in 7th place.
******** A Kansas win puts Chicago tied with the Firebirds (Chicago has tie breaker).


Firebirds (8-4) (5th) VS Bud Dry (3-9)(11th)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=425&team2=1455
------- Firebird win.

Subplot to this game:
******** As long as Firebirds win their seed spot will not change. If they win out and Chicago loses 2, they get a home playoff game.

TriCity (8-4)(6th) Vs New Orleans (1-11)(15th)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=844&team2=695
---- TriCity Win

Subplots for this game:
******** TriCity needs a win to keep up with the Firebirds.


Nevada Dice (6-6)(9th) VS Flathead (5-9)(10th)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=128&team2=1403
------- Nevada squeeks one out here. But Flathead could play spoiler if they want to.

Subplots for this game:
********* Nevada needs a win, if they lose they really hurt their playoff chances.
********* A Flathead loss would basically end their season, although they are a long shot to make it right now.

1.DC Corruption (12-1) 947 points after week 12 . * Key West, TriCity,Chicago Commando's, College Station, Kansas Twisters, Flashpoint
