That Upset of the Bruisers did destroy the projected perfect season of the Hornets. No big impact here, since both teams are still projected to win their divisions, but we have to monitor this closely.

For the next gameday do the picks look like that:

BOIU vs. Strike Team -> Strike Team
Benik Cowboys vs. srib_bdx -> srib_bdx
Berinsfield Hornets vs. Florida Gators -> Berinsfield Hornets
Blood Kings vs. Torchwood Aliens -> Blood Kings
Burnaby Bruisers vs. Adelaide Crows -> Adelaide Crows
Gorillas vs. Leverkusen Leopards -> Leverkusen Leopards
Hot Pigs vs. Paris Roosters -> Hot Pigs
Manchester Machine vs. Sentinels -> Manchester Machine
Marines vs. Versailles Knights -> Marines
Neptunes Bologna vs. Down Under Devils -> Down Under Devils

good game Bruisers, don't know why, but really struggled to get anything to work in this game.

My defence, normally good at shutting teams down, struggled and you scoring with 2 mins to go, I just couldn't get back up the field to score.

Still wasn't expecting a 16-0 season.

Good luck kharton99, though I doubt you need any! I am hoping for at least a close game, one that is enjoyable to watch!

Yowch... tossing 5 picks in a game is definitely a recipe for losing!

Especially, when the other team did not turn over the ball at all!

The game ended in the 4th quarter like this:

0:50 1 and 10 to go on opp 13, Ernest Hildebrand (OC) snaps the ball to Juan Ignacio Herrero (QB), Juan Ignacio Herrero (QB) selected Derrick Barrow (WR/R) as target, overthrown outer right pass, incomplete, no progress (I-formation vs. 5-2) more

0:41 2 and 10 to go on opp 13, Gail Gabriel (OC) snaps the ball to Nadab Fersht (QB), Nadab Fersht (QB) selected Gary Brennan (WR/R) as target, he passes outer screen right to him, intercepted by Steve Seddon (CB/L) on the opp 13 (Singleback Spread vs. 3-3-5) more

I was only down 3 points, so I was in position to push the game to OT at the very least.

Congratulations on your victory!

Ham

Good game mate, I have no idea what's wrong with my team, the defence seems so much weaker to last season, might be just me, but really struggling against good teams.

Anyway, well done, so looks like I'm playing for 2nd place in the division now

So 2 picks wrong, which might become bigger factors.
We will see.

New picks I will post with the new overview, coming next.

Here is an u p d a t e on the last overview of our league.
I will point out bigger changes for every division and the playoff picture.

So far I did no "re-pick" based on results.
I still think overall my picks are OK, upsets might have been a result of a bad day for that day (or a good one, dependend on the point of view)

Now here is the result, only with losses and wins:

AC
AC East Won Lost
Strike Team 15 1
Sedalia Slugs 8 8
Marines 4 12
Versailles Knights 1 15
No changes here. So far every game went as expected.

AC North Won Lost
Berinsfield Hornets 14 2
Florida Gators 9 7
Spawn City Killers 4 12
Benik Cowboys 2 14
Hornets did lose 2 unexpected games, but I still see them winning many games. While the Gators did win 1 game not expected (The Hornets game), but I did not change the picks, so the are still on 2nd place. Maybe I have to rethink this, since there are several games quite close from the picking view. We will see.

AC South Won Lost
Muppet Liberation Army 13 3
Panteras Assassinas 7 9
srib_bdx 7 9
Neptunes Bologna 6 10
Army did get an additional win, while all other teams have lost 1 more game than expected.
Bottom line is, the standings are the same, on conference level and league level this might have an impact.


AC West Won Lost

AC West Won Lost
Manchester Machine 14 2
Skyzo Shenkos 14 2
River City Ice 11 5
BOIU 1 15
No changes here, all picks were correct and I don't see a need for changes.

NC
NC East Won Lost
Winds of Erytheia 11 5
Gorillas 7 9
Sentinels 5 11
Alanitized Daggers 1 15
Also no changes here. Only news is, that the daggers might fall BOT They have about a week left to come back.

NC North Won Lost
Adelaide Crows 13 3
Hot Pigs 10 6
Torchwood Aliens 7 9
Newhouse Eagles 5 11
Only change here is that the Aliens did gain a win. So far not enough to change the big picture.

NC South Won Lost
Leverkusen Leopards 15 1
Blood Kings 14 2
Down Under Devils 11 5
Paris Roosters 0 16
Blood Kings did lose a win, last gameday. That makes it harder for them to win the division, but my team is only one upset away to fall a spot.

NC West Won Lost
Burnaby Bruisers 13 3
Harrisburg Fire 10 6
Peterborough Pirates 4 12
Seattle Fighters 0 16
Bruisers did win a tough game I expected them to lose, which means they look stronger now. No big impact on division level.

What does that mean for the playoffs?
In the playoffs I do project:

NC
name division wins
Strike Team AC East 15
Berinsfield Hornets AC North 14
Manchester Machine AC West 14
Muppet Liberation Army AC South 13

Skyzo Shenkos AC West 14
River City Ice AC West 11
Small changes in the sorting, but no new playoff contender. Still a gap of 2 games between Ice and the next team, which would be the Gators with 9 wins.

AC
name division wins
Leverkusen Leopards NC South 15
Adelaide Crows NC North 13
Burnaby Bruisers NC West 13
Winds of Erytheia NC East 11

Blood Kings NC South 14
Down Under Devils NC South 11
No real change so far, only the wins got changes, but not the sorting. Pigs and Fire are right behind the Devils with 10 wins.

Relegation would await based on my picks the following teams.

name division wins
Marines AC East 4
Spawn City Killers AC North 4
Peterborough Pirates NC West 4
Benik Cowboys AC North 2

Versailles Knights AC East 1
BOIU AC West 1
Alanitized Daggers NC East 1
Paris Roosters NC South 0
Seattle Fighters NC West 0
No changes here, but this can happen.

And to keep this transperant, here the picks for the next gameday.

2015-03-14 17:00:00
Adelaide Crows vs. Marines L Adelaide Crows
Alanitized Daggers vs. Harrisburg Fire W Harrisburg Fire
Berinsfield Hornets vs. Peterborough Pirates L Berinsfield Hornets
Florida Gators vs. Neptunes Bologna -> Neptunes Bologna
Muppet Liberation Army vs. Benik Cowboys -> Muppet Liberation Army
Newhouse Eagles vs. Leverkusen Leopards -> Leverkusen Leopards
Paris Roosters vs. Down Under Devils -> Down Under Devils
River City Ice vs. Skyzo Shenkos -> Skyzo Shenkos
Sentinels W vs. Seattle Fighters -> Sentinels
Spawn City Killers vs. Burnaby Bruisers -> Burnaby Bruisers
Torchwood Aliens vs. Hot Pigs -> Hot Pigs
Versailles Knights vs. BOIU -> Versailles Knights
Winds of Erytheia vs. Gorillas -> Winds of Erytheia
srib_bdx vs. Manchester Machine -> Manchester Machine
Bye week: Blood Kings, Panteras Assassinas, Sedalia Slugs, Strike Team

This will be fun.

Thanks man, same to you! Well, I thought it was going to be a blowout 33-3 in the fourth, then I suddenly couldn't score and you got those 3 td's. I was getting a little concerned at that point. Well played game overall!

Thanks, honestly I don't know how the season will turn out, though I would really like to win the division, I have a lot of schedule left! Good game, looking forward to our rematch at season end, hopefully we have another nice close game with stars shining for both teams!

Well this was the game that no one expected us to win. The first half went much as expected with the Blood Kings notching up a 10 point lead.

But things went crazy in the 3rd as we picked up 4 (of our 5) interceptions there and manged to translate them into points.

This seemed to change the whole game.

It has given us huge hope for the season.
