This is what the playoff picture will look like if everyone will do what i think they will do this coming weekend!

National League North- Dacula, Peachtree Ridge.

National League South- Dacula

National League East- Buford, Collins Hill, North Gwinnett, Peachtree Ridge.

American League North- Loganville, Grayson

American League South- Lawrenceville, Parkview, Shiloh

American League East- Shiloh, South, Grayson, Lawrenceville

As you can see, this is the 16 teams required to be in. Some of the teams are pending a win this coming weekend. So this is just a prediction! Your thoughts please?

I'll bite ... using predictions for this weekend's matchups based on the computer rankings (in other words, nothing more than an educated guess), the playoff picture should end up looking something like this: 

First six (bright green) teams are division winners.  The next group of teams (pale green) represent teams that should be assured playoff berths regardless of how they do this weekend.  The next two group's (yellow and red) survival depends on their performance this weekend.  If these game predictions hold true, all 5-3 records (yellow) make it into the playoffs ... no 4-4 (red) team makes it.  I haven't applied the GFL tiebreaker/seeding rules.  Each cluster is listed according to the current computer ranking and does not represent projected GFL seeding ...

Looks like we differ by one team ... I've got Lilburn AN and you have Lawrenceville AE.  We'll know soon enough ...

Sorry folks ... I made a mistake transferring my scribbling on a sheet of paper to the upcoming schedule and screwed up.  That would bring one 4-4 team into the equation ... in my opinion, Mill Creek NE is the strongest of the group, but that might not be how the GFL tiebreaker rules see it.  Corrected prediction is:

If the following scenario from MrEman happens, there will be 15 teams at 5-3 and then there will be a 4 team playoff for the last playoff spot.

 The 4 teams at 4-4 with a conference record of 3-2 would be in the playoff for the last spot; the 4-4 teams with conference record of 2-2; 2-3 or 1-3 would be eliminated:

1. Mill Creek NE Schwefler

2. Mill Creek NS Savoie

3. Brookwood AS Bauchcum

4. Buford NS Tarleton

Great job this year e-man-thanks I know it eats up some time.

Momaballs top 10 for 12s

 1-Dac-Layson (like wooly says #1 till defeated),2-Log-Wooly-(yellow fever got him last week not hunter),3-C Hill-Randall(he he comes again),4-Dac-Perlotte(the colder it gets defence gains big mo),5-Shiloh-Hunter(qb will seal fate not 12),6-law-ville-McGinnis(how far can a new group really go?),7-Buf-Burge(could see final 4 if bracket ends up like I see it),8-S Gwint-Dower(dont underestimate these kids),9-N Gwint-Hearn(don,t want them 1st round-hungry),10-Grayson-Chandler(peeking late-some A's back-may upset ya 1st round if O dosent beat themselfs)

Hey mamaball,

I like your top 10 list, except for that Grayson Chandler pick.  They haven't won against the top teams on their schedule this year.  In fact, they've been getting their butts all but ripped off and handed to them when they played the "elite" teams.  I don't see how they could "sneak up" on anyone in the first round, or any round subsequent to that...so maybe you meant to say Grayson Young?

...Jefe...

Hey Sunshine,

No apologies necessary, we DID get beat by Randall in the 2nd round last year, which, pisses me off that we won't get a chance to play them this year for some "unfinished business" -- but I do hear what you're saying about Chandler and missing 2 or 3 of their A's...I'm just basing my statement by observing their trends this year...they will play hard, but not effective enough to make an impact, even in the 10th spot. 

And even though it WAS last year, it still holds weight in the fact that it is an estimation of a teams' strength and ability from year to year.  Dacula or Loganville wouldn't be considered top tier teams at the beginning of the season unless people could base that designation on what they did the prior season...

...So don't worry little guy, I understood what you meant!

BOSS

Hey Mama,

Yep, we saw them last week, and that is why I said I can't put Chandler in that spot...They haven't shown enough strength to have a considerable impact on the type of teams that they will play come 1st round of the playoffs.  Young, they had glimpses of what they COULD do against top teams offensively and defensively...

...Although I haven't seen Pate, i've heard that he's had a consistently well coached squad, that could possibly upset a team or two...

So if I had to pick, i'd say Young or Pate for the 10th spot, and let the sparks fly!!

As a parent it amazes me why you guys refuse to give the coaching staff and the players of Shiloh-Hunter credit for doing a great job with a hat picked team. All I hear is Wolly this and Wolly that. You better go check the credentials of Coach Hunter and his staff. The yellow fever got Wolly. Hell no - the black and silver fever got Wolly. He threw everything he had at Shiloh - double reverses, 8 half back passes, hook and ladder, etc, and still only got inside the red zone once, and that was on a busted lucky pass. Wolly is lucky he didnt lose by 2 tds. Shiloh stayed in his red zone. I guess it was yellow fever that told Wolly's qb to spike the ball from the shot gun, drawing an intentional grounding penalty, killing their last drive. Also, all 3 fumbles they had were on 4th down and a mile to go, while trying to do some playstattion play. Come on guys, I know Wolly is a great coach and has a great team,but let's give credit where credit is due. Hats off to Shiloh. Again, they drafted their team from a blind hat pick. They are beating teams that have had their core group of players together for several years.

Again, this is no disrespect to Wolly or any other coaches if GFL, but coach Hunter has a stellar resume and can coach with the best of them. Give the man some freaking credit. This Shiloh team was 2-6 before he got here! Geeeeez!!! If Coach Hunter doesnt win another game this year he's done one helluva job with those boys! Thanks Coach! Keep chopping that wood!

Dear Undertaker-I think you may have mistaken Mamaballs comment-Loganville created the yellow fever themselves-shot themselves in the foot so to speak. I was there-I know a yellow flag took 6 off the board did it not. You want to talk busted play what about 12 for shiloh picking up a fumble in the backfield and running (to the house)past three defenders that thought the play was blown dead. Ill give credit where credit is due-when its due only-good luck.
