The
Iowa Barnstormer (3-10) hosted the Dallas Vigilantes (8-5) this week, and to be quite honest, the odds were not in favor of the Barnstormers. Entering the game on a three game losing streak, the Iowa Barnstormers brought to the table a record of 2-4 at home versus Dallas's two game winning streak and a record of 3-4 on the road. So, one would think that the Barnstormers would have a reasonable chance to win against Dallas, but at the end of the day, Dallas was victorious ... 65-55.
So what about next week? The Barnstormers will be on the road against the Chicago Rush. What's my position here? Well, I figure that Chicago is going to win.
The
Chicago Rush were in Spokane for week fifteen, and the 6-7 Spokane Shock took the day, 63-60. Spokane was 5-2 at home and on a two game winning streak. Chicago was 4-3 on the road and on a one game winning streak. But the loss poses not threat to Chicago's playoff dreams this year. Having a record of 9-4 coming into the game and on top of their division and second in the conference, with Iowa bringing their dismal road record up against Chicago's 5-1 record at home, Chicago should remain on top of the hunt for post season.
Week 16, based on records, the Arizona Rattlers should beat the Philadelphia Soul in Philly. The Dallas - Tulsa game could be a close one, and Tulsa will be hungry as they are still in the hunt for a wildcard slot, and if Dallas loses to Tulsa, Dallas may find itself looking at a wildcard slot for the playoffs. And finally, I've already called this one. Chicago over Iowa.
