What are the odds of any Big 8 team not getting relegated by Great 8 team in playoffs?

As the standings are right now, a big fat 0!!!

The one with the best chance is Dark Matter and he is pairing against a team that would relegate even my team.

So no, not happening, unless some big-salary players are brought in before the end of the season and some injuries occur on the other side.

Well, played Burlington orbitals, well played.

You guessed me out correctly, and took a hint from AZ Sunburn book, it was 30 pt improvement, I know it still an L, but hey
still is a better performance, so bravo!

Wow!, Dallas Rhythm is looking scary as hell!

Navajo Nation Advent and Village Idiots loses are missed opportunities to close the door and separate themselves from Petersburg, I know easier said than done.

petersburg regardless of a big loss, they still have a foot on the door, keep the playoff race in Great 8 interesting.

Two games left and the odds are in petersburg favor right now.

While there is a very slim chance any one of 5-7 teams in Great 8 could make it to 4th place, my focus now is to get enthusiasm as high as possible for playoffs.
In Great 8 we can do that while Big 8 has to fight all they can for position.

No, #5 has the highest shot to make the 4th spot, all it has to do is not lose anymore games, I feel confident enough to say
that.
#4 will have to win both games by big margins to upset that, is doable sure, but percentage wise not on its favor.



I think the BIG 8 positions are pretty much set other than AZ and Blue, #1 is six games ahead of #2, #3 is three games ahead of #4 with two games left and #4 is two games ahead of #5, but with an 88 PD. and I can't see them erasing that many PD in two games.

Dont beat yourself up. Many seasons ago I have come up to D III with what I thought was a killer roster only to drop back down to IV. It just takes time and LUCK. No critical injuries, no mistake lineups (having your Thursday scrimmage squad play league games).

best of luck to you.

Yeah, You definitely going in to relegation, but from what I see at this moment the odds are in your favor to win it, which to be honest I don't know if that's a good thing....

Just remember every time you go up a league or down, more likely is going to be a marathon, and mostly if you have bad luck and land on the harder side.


Cause a team like yours on our side be rank 4th right now, so just hang in there after all this game in general is huge marathon, and have fun while doing it.

The mighty Balls of Steel just won their 4th straight league game, moving us from 7th to 6th in great 8 conference standings.

One more league game and it time for relegation play.

Last night The Sunburn played the Blue Vikings to settle the #2 seed and home court in the first round of the playoffs for the Big 8. The Vikings stayed in the game often threatening to take the lead throughout but the 'Burn prevailed by sinking free throws at the end of the game. The difference in the game was the number of Turnovers and Free Throw percentage for the Sunburn. Great game Vikings, we will see you in the playoffs.

The Great 8's race is great to watch. If the Navajo Nation can pull off a win, they just might squeak into the playoffs. That is unless Pony Express chokes against Petersburg. The first games of the season had Express win by 12 and the Advent win by 17 against Chicago.

My prediction for the Great 8 final regular-season standings:
1. Pony Express 18-4 +306
2. Dallas Rhythm 14-8 +250ish
3. Navajo Nation Advent 13-9 +201
4. Chicago Bulls 13-9 +194
5. Petersburg 12-10 +198
