I wasn't planning on doing preseason rankings, but I had time to kill. There's not much to it. A few words about some teams. The predicted records are just homer picks based on the rankings. The format and detail will improve as the season progresses. There might be some mistakes since I didn't proofread. Enjoy!

Overall Zeta looks like a much deeper league. Last season it was limited to 5 excellent teams and the rest mediocre. I'd say we at least doubled the overall number of good teams, but lost a couple of top tier teams. This season there should be 3-4 teams battling for the top spot and 3-4 teams battling for the 8th.

Key games & projected records only reflect conference play because I haven't scouted everybody's OOC opponents.


ZETA

1. Jacksonville Jackalopes
-Key Games: Week 7 vs Newark Nomads, Week 8 @ Fluffy Pink Bunnies, Week 9 @ Berlin Wall
-Projected Record: 15-0

2. Berlin Wall
-Looking to improve on their work from last season. Return an excellent offense. Defense looks solid too.
-Key Games: Week 8 @ Newark Nomads, Week 9 vs Jacksonville Jackalopes, Week 10 @ Fluffy Pink Bunnies
-Projected Record: 14-1

3. Newark Nomads
-Still seeking that promotion to AA. Once again have a potent offense, but it's still questionable if they have the defense to boot.
-Key Games: Week 6 @ Fluffy Pink Bunnies, Week 7 @ Jacksonville Jackalopes, Week 8 vs The Berlin Wall
-Projected Record: 13-2

4. Fluffy Pink Bunnies
-New team to WE A4. Looks solid all around and should contend for a top 4 spot.
-Key Games: Week 6 vs Newark Nomads, Week 8 vs Jacksonville Jackalopes, Week 10 vs Berlin Wall, Week 12 vs London American Werewolves
-Projected Record: 12-3

5. London American Werewolves
-Another new team to WE A4. Have a good squad and should fare well against the lesser competition. With a few upsets they could get a 1st round home playoff game.
-Key Games: Wk 7 vs VIC, Wk 9 vs NEW, Wk 10 @ JAX, Wk 11 vs Wall, Wk 12 @ FPB, Wk 15 @ SWITZ
-Projected Record: 11-4

6. Switzerland Seagulls
-Comparable skills to LAW. Seagulls are yet another new WE A4 team. Will be battling this season to stay in the middle of the pack.
-Key Games: Wk 2 vs BAD, Wk 3 vs FPB, Wk 9 vs MCRG, Wk 10 @ VIC, Wk 15 vs LAW
-Projected Record: 10-5

7. Victoria Assassins
-Good team looking to improve on their 1st round loss last season. Can easily make a jump to top 5.
-Key Games: Wk 2 @ FPB, Wk 7 @ LAW, Wk 9 @ BAD, Wk 10 vs SWITZ, Wk 11 @ Blitz, Wk 16 vs MCRG
-Projected Record: 9-6

8. Monte Carlo Red Glare
-Decent gameplanning can get MCRG into the playoffs. Will be battling Baden and Blitz for the last playoff spot.
-Key Games: Wk 6 vs LAW, Wk 8 vs BAD, Wk 9 vs SWITZ, Wk 10 vs Blitz, Wk 14 vs Spartans, Wk 15 @ VIC
-Projected Record: 8-7

9. Baden Bandits
-New to WE A4. Have the talent to make playoffs, but will have to adjust to the tougher competition.
-Key Games: Wk 2 @ SWITZ, Wk 7 vs Spartans, Wk 8 @ MCRG, Wk 9 vs VIC, Wk 14 @ LAW
-Projected Record: 7-8

10. Berlin Blitz
-Like Baden they are new to A4 and have the talent to make the playoffs.
-Key Games: Wk 3 @ BAD, Wk 9 vs Spartans, Wk 10 @ MCRG, Wk 11 vs VIC
-Projected Record: 6-9

11. Berlin Spartans
-Have talent, but I seriously question the gameplanning abilities of their GMs. If they could find some success they could sneak in the playoffs.
-Key Games: Wk 7 @ BAD, Wk 9 vs Blitz, Wk 11 @ BOL, Wk 14 @ MCRG, Wk 15 vs VIC
-Projected Record: 5-10

12. Bolderslev Pirates
-Key Games: ALL
-Projected Record: 4-11

13. Bordeaux Carlin
-Key Games: ALL
-Projected Record: 3-12

14. Arlanda Jets
-Key Games: ALL
-Projected Record: 2-13

15. Atlanta Conchords
-Key Games: ALL
-Projected Record: 1-14

16. Venice Freebirds
-Key Games: All
-Projected Record: 0-15

It clearly states the records don't include the out-of-conference opponent.

It was hard to put Berlin Wall so low on my list just because I know those guys compete every game. MCRG ..not so much
