Game of the Week: Belgrade Blaze at Transylvania Terror
A showdown of Zeta's top two teams, this game could be the deciding factor in homefield advantage through the playoffs. Transylvania's defense has only allowed 3 touchdowns this season, and will look to keep up that trend against a Belgrade attack that has delivered to the endzone 91 times. Meanwhile, the #1 Terror pass defense will look to deflate Belgrade's leage-leading 73.8% completion rate.
Prediction: Terror 34-33
Constantinople Romans at Subotica Scorpions
Only two teams have maxed out the scoreboard on the Scorpions... can Constantinople be the third?
Prediction: Romans 254-0
Columbus Crush at New Jersey Mafia
Thurgood and Faulkner will appreciate this bonus to their MVP standings
Prediction: Mafia 224-0
Istanbul Anatolian Guard Dawgs at Terlingua Javelinas
Istanbul is coming off a tough loss to the Warheads and seems to have lost their starting quarterback to a surprising midseason retirement, while Terlingua is basking in their newfound "passing game." This might not be a pretty one for Istanbul.
Prediction: Javelinas 54-14
Draguignan Dragons 83 at Ukrainian Warheads
If D83 wants to keep up with the playoff bubble, they MUST get a win here to kick off a long win streak. Ukraine, meanwhile, is part of a 5-way tie that currently stretches from the fifth seed to two spots out of the playoffs. A win against the Dragons can put them a game ahead of Istanbul and the loser of the Macedonia-Kiev tilt.
Prediction: Warheads 36-10
Kiev Cossacks at Macedonia Marauders
The winner of this game stays on the right side of the bubble. The loser likely falls to #9 in Zeta. Kiev became a favorite of the Predictions Staff after a 3 game streak put them right at the edge of the Zeta elite, but a two game losing skid has them back in the doghouse. I think this will be the closest game this week.
Prediction: Marauders 44-37
Spokane River Rats at Caspian Sea Dragons
Spokane, led by MVP candidate Bob Ceres, desperately needs a winning streak to put them back in playoff contention. The Sea Dragons are in a similar situation, desperately needing a win to stay in the playoff race. After an opening game win against Bucharest of Alpha, the Dragons have only managed wins against Zeta's bottom 4 teams.
Prediction: River Rats 28-21
Chernobyl Nuclear Assault at Helsinki Hell Raisers
Another win for Chernobyl could have them nipping at the tail of the #12 spot in Zeta!
Prediction: Nuclear Assault 120-6
