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 Satchmo 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. Marblehead Longhorns http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1881 (WPL)
32. Oakland Naughty Ottsel http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=5049 (SEA AAA)

Marblehead finished 3rd in the Top 25 Pro teams list at the end of the season and they should cruise into the next round pretty easily!

16. Yellowknife Rented Mules http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3480 (CPL)
17. Arica Titans http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=904 (SAPL)

2 very similar squads are facing off in this matchup, but Yellowknife played tougher against real competition, so I give them the slight edge!

8. Nairobi Warthogs http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=2723 (WPL)
25. Key West Corsairs http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1432 (USAPL)

Should be an interesting contest between a WPL squad and a new USAPL squad, but I have a feeling that an upset will occur here!

9. Arkadak Arsenal http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=5422 (EEPL)
24. Canberra Cowboys http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=5004 (SEAPL)

Arkadsk played better competition and played tough vs Stuttgart in the 2nd round last season! They will pass through that game!

4. North Delta Huskies http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=144 (WPL)
29. Russian Revolution http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4138 (EEPL)

North Delta did beat Drinkin last season when it counted the most and they were 8 points away from being CPL Champs, they deserve their spot and they should win this game!

13. Angola Spider Monkeez http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=2664 (APL)
20. Mekong Delta Force http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3138 (SEAPL)

ASM had a down season compared to last season, they are facing a newcomer from SEAPL, but I have a feeling that it could be an upset!

5. New Jersey Blaze http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1656 (USAPL)
28. Buffalo Rampage http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3102 (SEAPL)

I know the Blaze (faced them in AA3 in S8 (League Championship Game) with Timpanogos) well, and I am a GM of the Rampage, where should I stand on this one? Easy, Blaze are one of the favorites to win it all in USAPL this season, while the Rampage have a lot of work to do before winning SEAPL! Blaze win and hoping it can be somewhat a good game!

12. Atlantis Lost Souls http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4870 (OPL)
21. Chocolate City Cha Chings http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1463 (USAPL)

I knew that Cobra Kai would have pussied themselves out of the tourney, but it doesnt change my pick, CCCC will take care of the Lost Souls of Atlantic!

2. Doinitin Djibouti http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=2764 (WPL)
31. D-League Dream Team http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=972 (USA AAA)

Tea Baggins will run down the D-League throats and easily give Dointin the 1st round win!

15. Komodo Dragon http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=5903 (SEAPL)
18. Valhalla http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4576 (SAPL)

Komodo had a good rookie season in SEAPL and they should move on to the 2nd round in what should be a good game!

7. Kingston Uprising http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=970 (OPL)
26. The Hague Hustlers http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4283 (EEPL)

Kingston should take care of the new EEPL team!

10. San Jose Snakes On A Plane http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3037 (SAPL)
23. New Brunswick Scarlet Knights http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1753 (USAPL)

This one is intriguing, NB will definitely give a fight to SJSOAP, but they were 32 seconds away from beating the Benitos in the SAPL playoffs, so they should pass the test and move on to the 2nd round!

3. Emmaus Fighting Green Hornets http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=384 (WPL)
30. N.M.I. Pagan Fire Eaters http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=582 (OPL)

They had a reality check with Stewart ending their streak, EFGH will easily win this game!

14. Antwerp Annihilators http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=657 (WEPL)
19. Santiago Spider Monkeys http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4592 (SAPL)

I am going with guts on this one, SSM wins in a close one!

6. Louisiana Screaming Pelicans http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1063 (WPL)
27. Cambodia Mountain Men http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=1070 (SEAPL)

Well well well, 2 SEAPL teams facing up (LSP is a former SEAPL team, now in the WPL), Cambodia should give a good fight but LSP will prevail in the end!

11. Queen City Black Cats http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3600 (CPL)
22. Dublin Druids http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=302 (WEPL)

Queen City were 13-3 in CPL East last season, but the Matadors ended their season too soon to their liking! They should take care of Dublin in a good game to watch!

SOAP ranked in the top 32 teams at the end of the season and 13 in Lukin's rankings and we get a 10 seed? Harsh!

Just curious and not complaining but how did this team http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=3138 get the 20 seed after a 19-1 season in SEA AAA but we got the 21 seed after a 20-0 season in USA AAA? Again, not complaining and please don't change it, I love pulling the Kai in the first round but just trying to figure out how you are doing it.

Probably had to make a swap due to two teams from the same league playing one another. Either that or I fucked up. It wouldn't have been much different though, I didn't distinguish between regions for promoting AAA teams (even though I probably should).

Cobra Kai have withdrawn so they are being replaced by Atlantis Lost Souls (OPL) http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=4870 - not going to reseed so they will just take the Kai's spot.

No biggie, was just curious.

Sucks that the Kai couldn't play because of a raging yeast infection but whatever.

Hopefully we can pull an upset. We had a nice little makeover in the off season and this might be our best shot at an upset.

Oops>=<Tea
