PLAYOFF POSSIBILITIES ABOUND WITH ONE WEEK TO GO;
ONLY ONE AAA SPOT STILL CONTESTED AS 10 TEAMS STILL ALIVE FOR 6 AA INVITATIONS
Posted: Thursday, June 5, 2008
By: Jared Neumeier
With but one weekend left and 22 of the 23 RMFL teams
involved, almost nothing is settled.
What do we know for sure?
Teams mathematically eliminated:
Snake River
Uintah Basin
Salt Lake
Bear River
Bitterroot
Davis
That’s it. 10 of 12 AA teams are still mathematically alive
for a playoff spot, however, only 7 of the 11 AAA
teams are alive for the 6 playoff positions at the leagues uppermost level.
Several teams like Eastern Idaho, Utah Wolverines and Utah
Shock are in the drivers seat and this will be the
year that the phrase “Strength of Schedule” gets bandied about the most. With so much parity and competition around
the league, settling the issue of “who’s the better team” will come down more
and more to, “who had the better opponents”?
In the RMFL, won loss record counts first, then head
to head battles. However, in the
event that head to head battles cannot separate a 3 or 4 or 5-way tie in which
all of the teams did not play each other, it comes down to who achieved their record down the most difficult road?
Lets get right to it.
I’ll fist start with an analysis of the AA, which is
somewhat more complicated with significantly more teams “in play” than the AAA;
however, certainly, just as interesting.
The Gladiators beating Boise on May 31st really
affected these potential brackets as the Speed, who had the inside track to #1
with a better Strength of Schedule (SOS) than the Eastern Idaho Lionz, dropped
to #2 and could actually fall as far as #5 if they cannot hold home serve
against the desperate Helena Titans this Saturday (and all of the planets
align). The Lionz merely have to win at
home against the expansion Srippling Warriorz,
against the ropes in their own right, to hold on to
the #1 seed throughout.
The AAA starts with a simple battle for #1 and then a real
shuffle for the #3 thru #6 positions.
Of course, in the RMFL, playoff seeding means a lot more
than how tough your opponent is you may have to play, it
might be the difference of staying at home… or a very long road trip to keep
alive.
But, enough generalities, lets take a team-by-team look at
each teams’ chances.
Note: if you notice discrepancies
between the written evaluations and the charts below, go with the chart. Inherent in both the Chart and the verbiage
are some fairly reasonable assumptions regarding the ultimate Strength of
Schedule (SOS) results. I’d take these
assumptions as about 98% accurate. The
final evaluations will be done Saturday night and the playoff teams will know
for certain by Sunday morning. This
article is meant to be a very accurate guideline, not necessarily the official
word on the final seeding.
AA
EASTERN IDAHO LIONZ
(6-1): Became the only 1 loss team
after the Speed were surprised at Great
Falls last week.
They only have to beat the Warriorz at home to hold on to that
position. Since they beat the Warriorz
in Salt Lake
3 weeks ago, the odds seem to be well in their favor, however, the Warriorz
have proven to be a formidable foe for anyone this season. The only team
outside of the weak south division the Warriorz have played, however, are the
Lionz. If the Lionz should lose the
game, could still hold on to the #1 seed if both Idaho
(vs. Uintah Basin)
and Boise (vs. Helena) should lose… not likely. If the Lionz win, they WILL be #1, if they
lose, they will probably fall to #3 and be home hosting on June 14th.
They cannot fall further than #3. PREDICTION: Defeat Warriorz 29-6 and get #1
seed.
BOISE SPEED (5-2): A few weeks ago, the
Speed seemed to be the team of destiny.
They were undefeated at 5-0 and looking to stay that way. Magic Valley
and Great Falls, however, had other
ideas and now the Speed are just trying to hold on for
a first round bye. If they defeat the
Titans (3-4) they will have a first round bye, either as the #2 or #1 (if the
Lionz lose to the Warriorz). They hold
SOS tie-breakers against the Lionz and a 2-0 head-to-head and SOS advantage
over the Idaho Matadors. A loss,
however… With Idaho, Magic
Valley and even Great Falls
favored to win, a loss by Boise
could drop them into a 4-way tie at 5-3. In that scenario, they have a SOS
advantage over Idaho, but not the
other teams and could end up at #4. PREDICTION:
Defeat Helena 41-7
and get #2 seed.
IDAHO MATADORS (5-2): The Matadors draw
probably the easiest final game, hosting the virtually winless Uintah
Basin at home. Barring the biggest upset in sports history,
the Matadors will finish 6-2 and will have to count on the Helena Titans, who
they just humiliated in their own house, to get the big road upset of the Speed
for them to seed anything but #3. If the
planets align, they do have an outside shot at #1, if both the Speed and Lionz
lose. To get the SOS advantage over the
Lionz, however, they will likely need both Snake River to drop the Knights and
Morgan to defeat Great Falls and Magic
Valley to defeat Logan. Likely, however, they are set at #3. PREDICTION: Defeat Uintah Basin 60-0
and get #3 seed.
GREAT FALLS GLADIATORS (4-3): The Great Falls Gladiators pulled
off the biggest seedings jump last week, defeating Boise
at home. The victory set them up to go
5-3 with a victory on the road at Morgan and with the great success of the
North division teams this season, have the SOS edge over all other potential
5-3 comers, including Magic Valley
and Logan. In fact, if the Helena Titans did pull off
the upset in Boise and Glacier wins at Snake River as
expected, not one North division team would finish with a record less than .500
giving those teams significant SOS leverage over the other two divisions who
boast struggling Snake River and Uintah
Basin who most divisional opponents
played twice. So a Gladiator victory
assures them of a first round home game… against the winner of the Magic
Valley/Logan game. If the Gladiators
cannot pick up the long road victory, they’re 4-4 record and strength of
schedule edge will get them in over the loser of the Magic Valley/Logan game
and Glacier (who will have had two non-division games against Snake
River) .
With a loss to Morgan, making Morgan 5-3, the Gladiators would be the 6
seed and open up (probably) at the Matadors. PREDICTION: Defeat Morgan 19-13
and get #4 seed.
MAGIC VALLEY BULLDAWGS (4-3): The
Bulldawgs sure seem to be the best 4-3 team in the league right now and having
beaten the once mighty Speed, its difficult to think that its possible that the
Bulldawgs might not even make the playoffs this season… however, that is a
scenario that could await if they are unable to win at Logan on Saturday. The Bulldawgs are knocked out with a loss to Logan
and Morgan
victory over Great Falls or a Glacier victory over Snake
River or a Helena win over Boise. You get the point. The playoffs start NOW for
these Bulldawgs. If they do win, then
they can hope for the Morgan victory, assuring them of the #4 seed and a first
round home game… probably against Great Falls. If they win and the Gladiators win, they
would be on the road in round one, probably at Great Falls. PREDICTION: Defeat Logan
28-14 and get #5 seed.
GLACIER KNIGHTS
(3-4): Yep, that’s right, I’m listing the teams in order of likely finish given
my predictions. IF the Knights win AND both Great Falls and Magic Valley beat
Logan and Morgan, the Knights do hold a slight SOS advantage over Logan and
Morgan; actually beating Logan head-to-head.
If, however, either Morgan or Logan win,
advancing them to 5-3 and dropping their opponents (Great Falls
or Magic Valley)
to 4-4, the Knights do NOT hold the SOS tie-breaker over those teams and would
be eliminated. Further, a Strippling Warriorz win against the Lionz would make the
Warriorz 4-4 and they also have the SOS edge over Glacier. Glacier was benefitted
by the “soft” schedule of drawing Snake River twice… however, ironically, had
they not had the likely 7-1 Lionz on the schedule, they would be mathematically
eliminated already. So… for the Knights
to eke into the playoffs they need 1) a victory over Snake River 2) Magic
Valley to beat Logan 3) Great Falls to beat Morgan 4) Boise beats Helena AND
Lionz to beat the Warriorz. Although
those are all of the “favorites”, none of them are done deals. The Knights can do no better than the #6 seed
and would open up back in Western Idaho on June 14th. PREDICTION: Defeat Snake
River 28-14 and get #6 seed.
MORGAN MARAUDERS
(4-3): Although I list the Marauders behind Glacier, its
almost a toss up for me on whether they can beat the Gladiators on the road and
jump into the playoffs at the #5 seed.
Morgan can actually get as high as the #4 seed and host a first round playoff game IF they win and Logan beats Great Falls. With both Great Falls
and Morgan sitting at 4-3, whichever team wins is guaranteed a playoff spot. I
favor the Marauders chances over the Stampede for a couple of reasons. First, I think that the Stampede opponent (Magic
Valley) has played better than Great
Falls this season and will be a tougher opponent.
Second, the Stampede’s opponent (Magic Valley)
has a significantly shorter road trip (about 2-1/2 hours) than does Morgan’s
opponent (Great Falls; about 7-8
hours). For these reasons, I believe that this game is a veritable toss
up. I’m assuming Great
Falls, however, will travel well, as a victory sets
them up with a first round home game… something they have never had. If, however, Morgan loses, they CAN still
make the playoffs IF: 1) Glacier loses 2) Strippling
loses 3) Logan loses 4) Helena
loses. The only 4-4 tie-breaker edge they would likely have is over Logan. PREDICTION: Lose to Great
Falls 13-19 and miss playoffs.
LOGAN STAMPEDE (4-3): The Stampede situation
is very much similar to Morgan. If they win, they are in… and be the #5 seed.
Unlike Morgan, they can finish no higher than #5. Because they have the weakest of the SOS
ratings of all of the possible 4-4 teams, however, they also would NOT make the
playoffs under any circumstance… with a loss.
For Logan, the Playoffs
start now. Perhaps this edge will help
against Magic Valley. Magic Valley
would still make the playoffs even if they lost… unless the unlikely occurrence
that Helena beats Boise. Helena
has the strongest SOS of all of the possible 4-4 teams. Simple
evaluation here. If Logan
wins, they are number #5 and would open AT the winner of the Great Falls/Morgan
game. Lose, and it would be a good first season, however, disappointing. PREDICTION: Lose to Magic Valley
14-28 and miss playoffs.
HELENA TITANS (3-4): Helena’s
situation is as simple as can be. If
they can defeat Boise at Boise on
Saturday… they are in and would claim the #6 seed and book a return trip to…
probably western Idaho against
the Matadors. If Helena
loses, they can start their post season vacation plans. Can they beat Boise in Idaho? Sure, why not? Helena did beat the
Lionz to tag them with their only loss (so far) and Boise
is on a two game losing streak. Is it
likely? Hmmm… PREDICTION:
Lose to Boise 7-41
and miss the playoffs.
STRIPPLING WARRIORZ (3-4): After spending much of the season
recruiting AAA caliber players and winning games with those players, some added
legally, some not, the Warriorz will likely become the most talented team to
not be in the playoffs. They will also,
however, be a team lucky to still be playing football anywhere. With the Warriorz violations continuing to
mount, they travel to the uppermost edge of eastern Idaho
to try to beat a Lionz team on the road that they could not put down at home
three weeks earlier. IF they travel with
a full team AND IF they can settle all pending issues by Friday before they
leave, they have a decent chance at pulling off an upset and becoming a
dangerous 6th seed. (Editors
note: The current issues have been settled and will not be an issue for the
game.) However, those are pretty big IF’s. The Warriorz
seem to be bent on racking up more fines and non-compliance violations
than any team in RMFL history. If they
can get beyond it all and make the 4-1/2 hour trip could make the final playoff
picture interesting. PREDICTION:
Lose to Eastern Idaho 6-29
and miss the playoffs.

AAA
UTAH WOLVERINES (6-1): Obviously, by listing
the Wolverines first, I am predicting that they will hold serve against the
visiting Shock on Saturday and grab the #1 seed. That, however, is no foregone
conclusion. The game sets up as a great
battle between the league’s top two quarterbacks, Jordan Kjar of the Shock and
Charlie Peterson of the Wolverines and although, the Shock offense has proven
more potent overall, I think that the Wolverines have a weapon in Joe Mapson, that the Shock may have difficulty finding an aswer for. Further,
the Wolverines defense has proven to be a bit better all year. With the Salt Lake Seminoles looking to
forfeit their final game against Bear River, it also
takes away any possibility of the Shock losing and dropping further than
#2. If the Seminoles had beaten Bear
River and Pocatello had beaten Idaho Falls,
the Shock could have fallen behind Pocatello
via the points allowed tie-breaker (SOS would likely be even). As it is… winner is #1 and loser is #2. Wolverines are home… and they have Mapson. PREDICTION:
Defeat the Shock 35-31 and get the #1 seed.
UTAH SHOCK (6-1): The Shock have already lived up to their name in their 2nd
season at the AAA level after winning the AA Championship under the moniker
“Muddogs”. Now these dogs find
themselves in the catbird seat as they face cross-town rival, Utah Wolverines
for the coveted #1 seed through the playoffs.
With the #1 and #2 seeds locked up by these first place teams, there
isn’t as much to play for as there could be… perhaps a slightly easier 2nd
round opponent (after a first round bye); however, not even that is assured as
who’s to say how the bottom 4 will shape up… or who will emerge out of the
first round to come to Salt Lake City to play?
The Shock have played well and with pride all season, however, I just
don’t see them able to keep it up in a game of so little overall
consequence. I also, see the Wolverines
also struggling with intensity for this one.
The Wolverines are home, however, and I just see them pulling this one
out in a high scoring affair. PREDICTION: Lose to Wolverines 31-35 and get
the #2 seed.
POCATELLO PREDATORS (5-2): Seeds #3 thru #5 are
just about an absolute toss up. That’s because who’s really to say who will win
in the Friday night finale between the Predators and Mustangs? It’s honestly a “pick ‘em”
game all around with no clear advantage and not team you can say has a clear
edge. With Pocatello
only 35-40 minutes away, its not much of a road game
either. I’m leaning Pocatello
because they simply have been more consistent… due largely to a vastly improved
defense, yielding only about 9 points and 60 rushing yards per game so
far. Further, Mustangs quarterback,
Donavan Ard, has
been mired in his worst season so far… by far, tossing 11 interceptions against
only 4 touchdown passes. The Mustang
offense was shut down by the two Montana
teams to 3 points TOTAL in both games.
Regardless, the Mustangs have more talent…and are home. Further, the Mustangs’ defensive weakness has
been against the pass, they have been even better than Pocatello
against stopping the run… which is the Predators offensive strength. The game sets up as a defensive struggle… in
which case you have to favor the more consistent defense. A Pocatello win and they
WILL be the #3 seed (assuming the Seminoles forfeit to Bear River).
A Pocatello loss and they would
drop to the #5 seed with a likely road opener in round 1 of the playoffs
against… Idaho Falls. PREDICTION:
Defeat Idaho Falls 10-7
and get #3 seed or loses to Idaho Falls 6-7
and gets the #5 seed???
MISSOULA PHOENIX (5-2): Anyone that knows the history of the Missoula
Phoenix/Bitterroot Blaze series cannot honestly look at this game and feel like
its any kind of a lock for Missoula,
regardless of the injury losses the Blaze have suffered this season. The Blaze defense, which shut down Idaho
Falls to 3 points on the road and intercepted Shane
Jurasek 6 times in the 2007 AA Championship game last season
is still formidable. Further, Blaze
running back, Justin Nixon is still… Justin Nixon. The Blaze can… and will be looking to win
this game and finish the 2008 season on a positive note. There is no love lost between the Phoenix
and Blaze. The Phoenix
defense, however, is vastly improved since 2007 and quarterback, Shane Jurasek
is having one of his finest seasons with 12 touchdown passes against only 4
interceptions… in the AAA division no less.
The Phoenix are definitely the favorite here, beating the Blaze in the
first game of the season 16-10, when the Blaze were more or less at full
strength. A Phoenix
win combined with an Idaho Falls victory over Pocatello
places the Phoenix in the #3
position, hosting the winner of the Heat/Bears game. A win and a Pocatello
win, puts them in the #4 position, hosting the Idaho Falls Mustangs or Cache
Valley Bears. A loss, a Pocatello
win, and a Cache Valley
win and they would drop all the way to #5 and travel to Cache
Valley in round #1. A loss to Bitterroot and an Idaho
Falls win combined with a Cache Valley
win and they drop as far as #6 losing the SOS tie-breakers with Pocatello,
Cache Valley and Idaho
Falls. The Phoenix
have clinched a playoff spot, but where they open up
and against who is far from settled.
They need and they really want to win Friday night. After all, they owe the Blaze a series sweep…
or two. PREDICTION: Missoula
defeats Bitterroot 20-14 and gets the #4 seed.
IDAHO
FALLS
MUSTANGS (4-3): Yes, the Mustangs
still have a shot at the #3 seed. A
Mustangs win on Friday night… combined with a Bitterroot win on Friday night
and the Mustangs claim the #3 seed and would host Missoula in the first round
(if the Bears win) or the Utah Heat (if the Heat beat the Bears). The Mustangs defense has been very good this
season, particularly against the run and yes, the offense has underperformed
for most of the season. However, there
is reason to be optimistic in Mustang-ville. Over the past two games against Bear River
and Cache Valley, the offense has turned it around, scoring an average of 39
points in those two games; and those were a couple of pretty good
defenses. I’m expecting, however, a
defensive battle as nerves will be tight and the weather will be cool, windy
and probably raining, setting up for a grind it out conservative playoff
atmosphere game. If, however, the
Mustangs are not able to knock off their biggest rival in the AAA, they can
still claim the #5 seed and to to Missoula
in round one OR they could fall as far as #6 if they lose and the Bears beat
the Heat. In that scenario, they would
fall as far as #6, Pocatello would rise to #3 and these
teams would be hooking up again in Pocatello
on June 14th. PREDICTION: Loses to Pocatello 7-10
and get the #6 seed… or beats Pocatello 7-6
and gets the #3 or #4 seed???
CACHE VALLEY BEARS
(4-3): Although I just predicted that the Mustangs would end up at #6, that
prediction is so fraught with question marks its not
even worth talking about. I actually
have NO idea who will win in the Pocatello/Idaho Falls game. If Idaho Falls does win
AND, as I assume, Missoula also
wins, then the best the Bears can do is #6 seed. In a 3-way tie at 5-3 with Idaho
Falls and Pocatello,
the first tie-breaker, head-to-head would resolve the break. Idaho Falls,
by virtue of beating both the Bears and Predators would seed first. Then, the Predators, by virtue of beating the
Bears would go second, leaving the Bears…at seed #6. In this scenario, assuming Missoula
wins, the Bears would draw a first round game in Missoula. However, if, as the Bears might hope,
Bitterroot can knock off Missoula AND Idaho
Falls beats Pocatello,
setting up a 4-way tie at 5-3, the head-to-head tie breaker can no
longer be used. The Bears would claim the #4 seed and host in round #1 by
virtue of their SOS advantage over both Pocatello and Missoula (Idaho Falls has
the best SOS of the group and would be #3).
Don’t laugh… this could REALLY happen.
PREDICTION: Defeats Heat 35-21
and gets #5 seed.
UTAH HEAT (3-4): This is the simplest of
all evaluations. If the Utah Heat defeat the Bears in Logan,
they are IN the playoffs and will be the #6 seed. There are no other
possibilities. If the Heat lose, they are out.
The Heat are a dangerous football team that has
beaten the Pocatello Predators… who
have beaten the Bears… so, anything can happen.
Did anyone imagine, however, before the season started, that only one of
these two teams would make the playoffs? A bigger question might be, did anyone think that the Bears wouldn’t make the
playoffs?? I didn’t either. Certainly not when they have a playoff-clinching finale at home. PREDICTION:
Lose to Bears 21-35 and miss playoffs.
