Seedings were determined in two parts. First, I used a combination of NiborRis's RPI and Colley Matrix for the current Pro teams. For teams promoted to Pro, I used their total W-L record with 20-0 being the best possible. If a team's RPI and Colley Matrix was >300 the promoted Pro teams were seeded ahead of them (figuring a good promoting team was better than an average to below average Pro team). AAA teams get the shaft in this system. They were seeded last after the >300 teams based on total W-L record.

Those are my quick predictions for this part of the bracket!

I went with my knowledge of the teams and I looked at the squads performance last season to try to predict the winners of the 16 DD 1st round matchups (I also used my instinct on some picks that were very close)

I plan on doing predictions and quick recaps of all the games of this tourney (Best in GLB, IMO) and I hope that you will like those!

Good season and good luck to all the teams in this region!



1. Monmouth Evil Monkeys http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=900 (WPL)
32. Timpanagos Thunder http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1637 (USA AAA)

Even though I am a GM in Timpanogos, there is no chance in hell that they cause an upset here! MEM advances!

16. Graz Grizzlies http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=624 (WEPL)
17. Edmond Dobies http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3018 (SAPL)

That one is freaking tough! Both teams are very similar, I will go with Edmond by instinct!

8. Normandy Invasion http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3340 (WEPL)
25. Brisbane Bulldogs http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=5559 (OPL)

It should be interesting but I feel the Invasion get this one in the 4th!

9. So Cal BDC http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=590 (WPL)
24. Magnificent Bastards http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=5840 (CPL)

BDC played well against good competition last season and they are facing a newcomer from CPL! Should be interesting, but the pedigree of BDC is better, so WPL gets 1 here!

4. Drinkin Hellraisers http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=208 (WPL)
29. Paris Penguins http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3197 (WEPL)

Drinkin is 11th in the Top 25 Rankings, I should expect them to win this one!

13. Warsaw Wrath http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4195 (EEPL)
20. Chachapoyas Nittany Lions http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4485 (SAPL)

That should be an intriguing matchup but the Wrath played Emmaus and Stuttgart pretty well so I really think that they will at least go to the 2nd round!

5. Stewart Ballers http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=842 (WPL)
28. Winona Warriors http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3139 (SEAPL)

Stewart ended the streak of Emmaus and became EEPL Champs! They should take care of business against a team I know well!

12. Tasmania Tigers http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=2926 (OPL)
21. Dakar Dragons http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=5200 (APL)

Dakar is a new team from APL while Tasmania got shellacked by BDC in the 2nd round of the OPL playoffs last season! Experience will win on this one, Tasmania in a close one!

2. Drygerian Hoblosion http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=149 (WPL)
31. Teikoku Alexanders http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1518 (AFR AAA)

The Hoblosion should actually prepare for their 2nd round game already!

15. Buda Pests http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=840 (EEPL)
18. Sumatra Sting http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4899 (SEAPL)

This one will be as close as it can be! Both teams had a rough Season 10, but they will give us a very good game to watch! My Instinct says Sumatra!

7. Singapore Marauders http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=450 (WPL)
26. Krakow Knights http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=6155 (WEPL)

I saw Singapore play in the last 2 seasons and they deserve their SEAPL crown! They should move on to the 2nd round!

10. Nashville Hounds http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=696 (USAPL)
23. Cuzco Death Squad http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4554 (SAPL)

Hounds played well last season in their debut in USAPL, even beat MM before getting beat by them in the 1st USAPL playoff round! They should have no problem moving on!

3. Manus Thunder http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=887 (SAPL)
30. Belfast Commandos http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1960 (WEPL)

Manus got their legs swept by the Kai in the 2nd round last season but this is still a very good team (they did beat OFG, Krazy and gave a good fight to Marblehead) No problem for them in this round!

14. Manitoba Matadors http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=191 (CPL)
19. German Wilddogs http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=2940 (OPL)

Even though I am a GM for Manitoba, I still think that it should be an interesting matchup, but I feel that the Matadors will be too much in the end! (And I am partial on all my picks )

6. Over The Rhine Red Dots http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1277 (WPL)
27. Cote d'lvoire Clash http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=5258 (APL)

OTR went on fire in the playoffs, Splitter is one of the best HB in GLB, they should have no problem here!

11. Singapore Flames http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1046 (SEAPL)
22. Samoa Flying Foxes http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4686 (OPL)

The Flames are a very good team and even though it should be an interesting game, Singapore should go on top!

The Bastards' pedigree has already produced SAPL and APL championships, therefore we get it.

Good luck to MEM in the 3rd round. Hopefully we'll have figured out the S11 exploits before you.

You guys look pretty good.....if BDC is not up to the challenge I'll be happy that I saw you once before I have to play against you with MEM.....and I'm not looking forward to potentially having to GP against myself if BDC makes it to the 3rd round along with MEM.

BTW, should I just watch tape of our matchups against the Voodoo or do I need to watch the Bastards in action as well?

Thanks, and likewise. We've still got 13 players filling up on cash on another team we're bringing aboard in preseason.

I'm changing up the OAI this off season, and there are the obvious new plays.. Honestly, I don't think any of last season's replays would do any good.

Nah, I didnt forget what you did in SAPL and APL and I hope that you prove me wrong (why do predictions if you are absolutely confident to get all the picks right! I know there will be bad predictions on my part!)

GL in CPL this season BTW!
