Wednesday Predictions

DIVISION I

#8 8Ball Runners @ #7 Pool Fiction - PFN looked like ass against PF, to be frank. They made constant mistakes, only won 2 games, and even if it is the #1 team, and defending champs, there's just no need for that for a team like PFN. 8BR appears to be on the rise, but they did need a DQ to win last week against just IND. So it will be an amusing matchup I'm, sure. Is there really any "aura" around PFN or now that a lot of the sharpshooters have gone are they just average? I think it's the latter, 8BR wins 4-3.

#4 Beer Ball Masters @ #9 Indian Pool - Speaking of IND, they take on BBM. It should be entertaining but I'd take BBM anyday. Of course, BBM would be 0-1 if LuckyDog didn't go Week 1 S4 Luis on everyone, twice, but I definitely think BBM is one of the top dogs in D-I and they'll show it tonight with a 5-2 win. I don't say much about this matchup because... it shouldn't even be as close as 5-2. That, and I'm eating, playing Pokemon XD, and generally feeling weird.

DIVISION III

#3 Bearskin Eightballers @ #6 Breakers Alley - Simple post: BA, are they for real this time where the competition is more even, or was Week 1 yet another typical Week 1 BA close call and they go win the usual 2-3 matches, not beating any top teams? Bearskins of course are yet to play a match so... says bet, 5-2 BE.

#2 Pool Loverz @ #9 Malditos - They take #9 and Quez gets #8 purely based on random seeding since they've replaced leagues and I don't care to adjust my ranks mid-week. I think Malditos have shown they're a very good team in other interleagues, and Pool Loverz... Haven't really proven much of anything to me. They won last week. Great. Against BA... 4-3... down 3-1... PZ has some good players but I'll take Malditos to win 4-3.

Decent night, the D-III matches will probably suck, I'm not expecting anything great from D-I but you never know I guess... Now to wait about 80 minutes :)
