#10 Dakota Dire Wolves at #1 Queen City Brewmasters
Dakota's relatively hot this year, with only a single ugly loss coming week 1 vs Portland Ronin. Their schedule's been rather lax, but they've played Bribane, Salty and Legacy well with confidence for a competitive match. Queen City's been reckless in S6, averaging just under 50 points a game. They do have two red marks from games against Salty and Portland Ronin, however. Both teams found ways to minimize Queen City's brutal demoralizing blockers. Can Dakota find it, too?
Prediction: Queen City terrorizes Dakota, 48-21.

#16 Seattle Seahawks at #2 New Jersey Generals
New Jersey may have had a rocky start, giving up 80 pts to start the ladder season vs Queen City, but they've been nothing but consistent since. Seattle on the other hand appears to be a team that is dropping off. They've accrued 6 losses on the season and appear to be fading fast. They've lost 4 of their last 6.
Prediction: New Jersey Generals dump the flailing Seahawks, 60-7.

#11 Ministry of Dotball at #3 Brisbane Bogans
Brisbane is yet another 2 loss team in the top 3 (the top 3 teams all have 2 losses to their name this season). Stobie and Ministry of Dotball will have to know one name...Nate Jones. Jones has 172 receptions on 193 targets this season, 11 of those being his own fault as drops. This is screen-ball, folks. This will be Ministry of Dotball's toughest test this season.
Prediction: Ministry of Dotball shuts it down and steals one, 30-14.

#7 Tampa Piranhas at #4 Portland Ronin
Twerk, Totoro and Dreadnought have caused a lot of trouble this season. Teams that can't tackle are in for a long day...a real long day. Tampa might just be one of those teams. Statistically-backing, they aren't built to tackle. Portland should prove to be a tough matchup.
Prediction: Portland goes Hulkamania and runs wild on Tampa, 55-21.

#24 Mongolian Horde at #5 Rusty's Ruins
This is probably the one and only time you'll see Mongolian Horde in a top anything writeup. The matchup gods have not helped them this week, as they'll get all sorts of passing from bhall's Rusty's Ruins. If there is a shining light for the Horde, it is that they beat current #7 Tampa Piranhas back on the 14th.
Prediction: Rusty's not left in Ruins yet, 49-13.
