Thanks Blair, I don't really have time for it at all but too many people tell me they appreciate the coverage, so I can't stop now.

As for predictions, I'm way too exhausted on various stats and figures to guess who will win what games. Here's what the numbers say. If it's within 10% I give the edge to the home team (home team in CAPS):

SPARTANS 41% over Storm
Crush 61% over GLADIATORS
PIONEERS 93% over Giants
Rage 74% over THUNDERHAWKS
Force 62% over PREDATORS

Percentages are the average difference between the teams in four sets of power rankings, with extra emphasis given on the last 10 games ranking. For this week I added in the difference in Coaches Poll votes as well, giving the 7 teams that received votes an even bigger edge (the only human element in the rankings).

Without the human element, the Gladiators and Predators move into the predicted wins column, although neither would gain a higher percentage than their opponent.
