Ghana Rhea Infection 12-0 @ Mozambique Lions 6-6
What originally was thought to be a big matchup, has become another blow out for the Infection. They are just dominating teams and the Lions will be no different. After losing by 20 or more in 3 straight, the Lions are now looking at a 7-9 season (after a 5-0 start) and possibly missing the playoffs. They're still not that bad of a team and will be in the running again next year if they keep it together. They may get rid of their kicker though.

GOTW 1*Morocco Camels 11-1 @ Russian Tractor 10-2
On paper, these two teams are very close and very similar. Both are very effective on both sides of the ball. Camels have the 3rd best passing attack, Tractor 6th. Rushing, Tractor 6th; Camels 7th. The Tractor have the 2nd best pass defense; Camels middle of the pack. Both have top 8 rush defenses. To offset the Camels yards they give up against the pass, they picked up 43 balls to the Tractor's 13. Both teams get pressure on the QB ranked 4 and 6 in hurries and 2 and 3 in sacks. Oh yeah, they're also 2 and 3 in pancakes. These teams are great everywhere. The biggest difference I could find was the kicking game where the Camels have a clear advantage. The Camels have the best punter, the Tractor, one of the worst. 6 yards a punt and more accuracy on the FGs=a close win for the Camels.

Los Angeles Extreme 10-2 @ High Plains Drifters 3-9
Why are the Drifters so bad? After 30 point-ish beatdowns back to back, it's safe to say they have virtually no game planning. They have great scouting reports coming in at a 36 overall, ties the top in the conference. Yet, they've beaten no one. That won't change here.

GOTW 2*Eaton Beavers 9-3 @ San Dimas Saints 9-3
Doesn't get much closer matchup here. Both teams have overperformed their levels and have kept it close against good teams. The Saints are in the playoffs but with 4 tough games down the stretch, they could stumble in. They need this one. The Beavers are looking to continue proving themselves after solid wins the last two weeks and going into a would-be clash for the 4th seed in the playoffs with the Tractor next week. Good luck to both teams.
GOTW 3*River Styx Jinx 6-6 @ African Killer Bees 9-3
So the Bees finally realized why they weren't getting respect. They've put together a solid season so far, but it doesn't get any easier. They could go on a major slide here. The Jinx on the other hand have gone in the other direction. They've righted the ship after embarrassing losses to the Congo Death and New Jersey Blaze and are now in a playoff slot. They could move up the charts with another win here. With nothing higher than a level 16, they obviously have great builds and good management. 4 games ago the Bees were 8-0 and the Jinx were 2-6, now I'm calling for the upset.
Jinx 17 Bees 13
Congo Death 4-8 @ Swaziland Southern Brown Mambas 0-12
The Death have an outside shot at the playoffs. With a win over the Lions they'll hold the tiebreaker over both the Lions and the Jinx. After the way they started, and the disappointment of the season, they would be a nice ending for them to hang their hats on for next season. Mambas should enjoy AA.

New Jersey Blazes 3-9 @ Chicago Wheelhouse 2-10
The Rough Riders got so fed up with their play they went with a name change. It won't matter, they're still bad. On paper this game is ridiculously close. The Blazes have a little momentum and should be able to ride it to another victory.
Blazes 20 Wheelhouse 16
Casablanca White Houses 2-10 @ Mogadishu Malice 1-11
In an epic battle for 14th place in the conference, the Malice bring the better team in on paper riding a 10 game losing streak. The White Houses will hopefully keep their team together and be much more competitive next season. Either way, this game is a snooze-fest.
