(S24) - PT 2 - Rising Stocks

[SwankyPants31]

At the time of the PT releasing, with 4 games in the books no teams stock had fallen more than the Orange County Otters. The team has an incredibly storied history, having been part of the initial formation of the ISFL (then NSFL) and not having missed a single season of playoffs. So to see them starting 1-3 through the first 4 weeks of the season is incredibly surprising. With that being said, I think Orange County is the most likely team to turn it around and have a bounce back for the rest of the season. In all honesty, at the time of writing this the Otters won 2 of their next 3 games, putting them back up to a much less worrisome record of 3-4. While this is certainly not where they would like to be almost halfway through the season, knowing their roster and the management behind it, I would be extremely surprised if they didn’t continue winning. At the very least I believe they’ll earn themselves a playoff spot, but given the strength (or lack thereof) of the ASFC I think they’ll end up grabbing the second playoff seed. While earning the top spot and HFA is definitely still in the picture for them, New Orleans has been looking strong, and I don’t see them giving up that spot any time soon.
