Late edition of the Match Ups, due to my Physics final. So, without further ado...
Another week closer to playoffs, and everything seemed to follow according to my predictions with one exception. The Mobsters (a team I have picked on a bit admittedly ) came out on top of a vicious shootout with the Wolfpack, shooting down my prediction.
Last Weeks Match Ups: 7/8
(Chicago Mobsters out-score the Thunder Bay Wolfpack)

I agree with the predictions and also think Thunder Bay will take the battle of 8-3 teams as their defense is a bit more sound and Chicago has been unable to prove their O can put up points against the top defenses in the league. I also think the Agency will squeak out the W in a low scoring (for pee-wee) affair. - owner of MMD, commenting on the tight match-up between the Pack and the Mobsters, and on the Agency's game against Woodland. The Mobsters would out-shoot the Wolfpack 63-52.

Week 13 Match Ups
Bold = Who I'm pretty sure will win. Based on record, SoS (strength of schedule), etc.
If both are bold = I'm not sure. Will be close, ** gets my guess.
The Game of the Week, imho
1.) Mississippi Mud Dogs (12-0) vs. Semper Saints. Jr (3-9)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7881&team2=6850
MMD looks to continue their romp through the regular season, having already played the toughest teams in the Conference. The Saints unfortunately look to continue their losing streak and will have to wait until next season for another shot at playoff glory. Expect a beatdown.
2.) Cleveland Warriors** (11-1) vs. The Agency (10-2)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7725&team2=7889
Definitely the Game of the Week! The West has become a battle for 2nd place, and this match is the epitome of that. The Warriors start their own streak of tough games, while this match represents the last of The Agency's tough stretch. Both teams have been in the hunt for glory from the beginning, and have the records to prove it. However, I believe the Warriors have the personnel, tactics, and most importantly the experience to edge out The Agency. Close, low-scoring game, Warriors.
3.) Chicago Terminators (9-3) vs. Thunder Bay Wolfpack (8-4)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=6771&team2=7799
The top half of the conference is full of interesting games, and this one is a close second to the Game of the Week. The Terminators have quietly had a stellar season, and are hoping to claim a spot among the West's elite. The Pack has had a successful season as well, but I don't think it'll be enough to handle what the Terminators can bring to the table.
4.) Chicago Mobsters (9-3) vs. Woodland Wildcats (7-5)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=6830&team2=7738
The Mobsters get off easy, facing a team that went CPU, and has been completely gutted. This one's a gimme, and could definitely affect some standings after this week's round of games. A damn shame too, since the Wildcats looked to be a contender imho.
5.) Chico's Bail Bonds Bears (7-5) vs. Madison Stronghorns (0-12)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=6875&team2=7483
The Bears have only a slight grip on the last playoff spot, but lucked out in drawing a team that should help lock up that spot. The Stronghorns are one of two teams still looking for a win, but that isn't happening here. Kudos to them for sticking it out, and hopefully, they can see some success next season.
6.) Philly Pitbulls** (6-6) vs. Blackfoot Broncos (5-7)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=6875&team2=7483
The Pitbulls are right outside the door to the playoffs and they're knocking. A win here could seriously help them in a late-season playoff push, esp. with The Agency and Mobsters still on their schedule. The Broncos are furiously making a dash for the playoffs as well though, and will be aiming for an upset. Look for another tight game that just might have playoff implications, and with both teams having seen mixed results this season, who know's who'll win?
7.) Sarasota Demons (4-8) vs. Bowling Green Fighting Pups (3-9)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7628&team2=7779
With both teams playing for pride, they have nothing to lose here. Will the Demons finally end their losing streak (third longest in conference), or will the Fighting Pups come up with a surprise win? I think the Demon's ability to score will finally show itself, and that they'll hold off the Pups enough for the win.
8.) Deep Creek Grizzlies (1-11) vs. High School of Georgia Wildcats (0-12)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/compare_teams.pl?team1=7756&team2=7754
HSGW is the other team still looking for a win, while the Grizzlies somehow managed to steal one away from the Semper Saints, and have that pressure off of them. Who's gonna show up in this game? Chances are running out for HSGW to win, and I think DPC will be successful in helping to continue the Wildcats' losing streak.
