[div align=\\\"center\\\"] Arizona Outlaws (8-3)[/div]

[div align=\\\"center\\\"]ULTIMUS CHANCES: GUARANTEED[/div]

Same note, different week. The Outlaws could very well repeat for the Ultimus with such a stacked team. Their record certainly has shown off their dominance and continued success from S16 and now they are heading into the playoffs with an easy end to their regular season. The only thing left for everyone to do is predict, not if, but by how much the Outlaws win in their next two games (barring any surprise Yeti attack which has been becoming more common). [/div]


[div align=\\\"center\\\"] Orange County Otters (6-5)[/div]

[div align=\\\"center\\\"]PLAYOFF CHANCES:GUARANTEED[/div]

[div align=\\\"left\\\"]Remaining Games:

Week 12: @
Week 13:

A slightly consistent season has managed to be the result of the S17 Otters as they come to the final weeks of the regular season. They managed to snag away the second spot from the Sabercars with a better overall record that could be hard to hold onto. It certainly is doable for Orange County, but this tight race for second place will be a fun one to watch. I'm sure the Otters will be looking for more blowouts than to underperform like they have been against teams they should be destroying. Thankfully for them, their next two opponents aren't teams they have to play down to.[/div]


[div align=\\\"center\\\"] San Jose Sabercats (5-6)[/div]

[div align=\\\"center\\\"]PLAYOFF CHANCES:GUARANTEED (but worried)[/div]

[div align=\\\"left\\\"]Remaining Games:

Week 13: @

Something fell apart for the Sabercats in this late season stretch that sent them from hopeful contender in the playoffs, to probably needing the Sim Gods to sneak them a win. Their next game in Week 12 isn't an easy one with having a four game losing streak and the Yeti may surprise the Sabercats to send San Jose off the deep end. They will make it to the playoffs, but they might not make it with more than a participation trophy.[/div]


[div align=\\\"center\\\"] Austin Copperheads (4-7)[/div]

[div align=\\\"center\\\"]PLAYOFF CHANCES:SNEKING IN[/div]

[div align=\\\"left\\\"]Remaining Games:

Week 12: @
Week 13: @

I'm sure after last season I wasn't the only one expecting this expansion team to not put things together for the next season. Although they are in the final playoff spot right now, the Copperheads are still at a much better position than they were last season. They are one of the only teams to finish the season away from home and against some harder games. The best hopes of getting out the final playoff spot for Austin is to watch and see just how far the Sabercats slip.[/div]


[div align=\\\"center\\\"] New Orleans Secondline (3-8)[/div]

[div align=\\\"center\\\"]PLAYOFF CHANCES:NONE[/div]

Week 13:

As a once famous saying went by former Arizona Cardinals coach, Dennis Green, "They are who we thought they were." I know this is meant in a sense that the team who predictions were right for was a good team, but the Secondline are who we thought they were. Not that good this season.[/div]
