Lion
South Bend (13-0) - After a tough stretch of games against opponents that kept them under 100 points they get a break against Clays.
TAP (13-0) - Still keeping pace with SBI but it's been a season full of close calls for TAP and they're not out of the woods yet with Hoods, RnR and SBI remaining.
Axis (10-3) - Bounced back from the beating they got from the Immortals with a narrow win over Sahara. Should coast through the next 2 before facing SHP in the final game. If they win out they should lock up the 3 seed.
RnR (11-2) - Right now they're penciled in as the 3 seed but with games remaining against CWE, TAP and Hoods we may see them slide out of that spot before the season ends.
Spring Hill (9-4) - The Pirates have had it pretty easy the last few weeks with only 1 of their last 6 opponents having a winning record. Their final 3 games won't be quite so easy but the biggest threat looms in week 16. However things go this squad should still lock up the 5 or 6 seed unless they just fall apart.
HOODS (9-4) - After a narrow 7 point loss to SHP they squeaked by CWE by 6 points. They still have 2 tough games left against teams that have don't have a lot to lose right now so a playoff spot is pretty much a lock now.
CWE (7-6) - After a 5-1 start the stomping crew has been in a slide going 2-5 in their last 7 games after a few close losses. With 3 tough matchups remaining this squad could find itself sitting at home through the playoffs.
Boston (7-6) - The Dogs kicked off the season going 5-2 but since then they've lost 4 of their last 6. 3 of those losses were by 7 points or less and I see them favored in 2 of the last 3 games but I think the best they can hope for is to finish up as the 8 seed unless CWE just crumbles.
Average Joe's (6-7) - Since beating CWE the Joe's have dropped 3 straight, with each loss coming by a larger and larger margin. Good news is that their last 3 opponents are all ranked under them. Bad news is that their playoff hopes depend on not just how they perform through these final games but also on how CWE and the Dogs finish up the season. Joe's have a tiebreaker win over CWE but lost to Boston so things could interesting.
Sahara (6-7) - Win over Cult gives Sahara some hope but they have to sweep final 3 games to stay in the playoff hunt. 2 of those games will be against teams also fighting to stay in the race so it's now or never for Sahara.
Cult (6-7) - Cult has been up and down for me this season. Just don't think it's in the cards for them this season and if they lose to SHP they probably lose any hope of miraculously squeaking into the playoffs. Still a long shot though.

LOL (12-1) - 12 straight wins since that week 1 loss and next up is Philly in a game that could decide the top seed.
Philly (11-2) - Narrow 2 point loss to Asmara could come back to bite Philly in the ass and has the potential to cost them a home playoff game. They still have to play LOL and SCM and if they lose both it could drop them as far as the 5 seed.
SCM (11-2) - It speaks volumes when a team's only 2 losses came against teams that are a combined 23-3 this season yet people see that as a downhill slide. A lot of uncertainty still in my head for the top half of the seeding. The current top 3 all have a few tough opponents left and Philly still has to play both the 1 and 3 teams. Still an outside shot for SCM to move as high as the 1 seed but also the potential to fall to the 4 seed if they slip up.
Rwanda (10-3) - Only one opponent remaining with a winning record so worst case scenario is locking up the 4 seed but they can move up if Philly or SCM drop 2 of their last 3 and Rwanda wins out.
Asmara (9-4) - Still not a lock for the 5 seed after dropping the game against ICB. 1 tough game left against LOL and if Asmara can get the upset in that game they would not only lock up the 5 seed but also affect the landscape of the top 4 seeds.
SoA (8-5) - Can not afford to slip up the next 2 weeks against struggling teams. Don't see them finishing any higher than the 6 seed which right now would toss them in a rematch against SCM.
ICB (8-5) - Should coast through the next 3 weeks which means their playoff seed is really in the hands of Asmara and SoA. Either one of them falters and ICB could slide up with a head to head tiebreaker over Asmara.
Voodoo (7-6) - Voodoo is doing everything they can to make the playoffs but it's still an uphill battle. They have 2 tough games left against Asmara and ICB and if they lose both they could fall right out of the playoffs with the Yaksmen nipping their heels and having a lighter schedule.
Yaksmen (7-6) - Loss to the Voodoo could cost the Yaksmen a playoff spot. Only thing in the Yaksmen favor is that their remaining schedule is much lighter than the Voodoos which should push them into the 8 seed if they don't screw it up.
