[JesterBlaze]

I'm very confident this year but picking myself is boring and I think the whole post-season scene gets shaken up this season so...


1. Predict your team's record: 11-5
2. Predict the winner of your division: Lawrence Phantoms
3. Predict the winner of your conference: Vancouver gets hot at the right time.
4. Predict the Imperial Bowl winner: Houston Renegades in an AC year where Portland is the 2nd best IFL team in the end.
5. Predict a breakout player on your team: Russel McBrayer, FS
6. Predict your team MVP: Amos. Looking beyond QB: "Propane" Humphries
7. Houston, Wichita, Fresno, and Orlando enter the post-season as perennials for a little while.
8. The AC West does not have a sub-.500 team!
9. The fact that Rich Sparkman is the IFL's next 2,000 yard rusher becomes apparent real quick.
10. Phil Miller (Houston DE) becomes the All-Time sack leader.

[BOSS]

1. Predict your team's record:

We're acquiring a good young foundation to build on but still not enough overall talent on the team. I think we have another 6-10 season.

2. Predict the winner of your division:

Whoever gets HOT the 2nd half of the season. This division is terrible right now and all the teams are rebuilding.

3. Predict the winner of your conference:

I gotta go with Lawrence. Too much talent but I think they need homefield advantage to make the big game.

4. Predict the Imperial Bowl winner:

I think the two best teams are in the NC with Newark and Lawrence. I picked Lawrence as the conference winner so its the Phantoms.

5. Predict a breakout player on your team:

DE Frankie Wheeler, I think this is the year he blossoms and puts up double digit sacks.

6. Predict your team MVP:

No question, its gonna be LB Louis McCarthy. I think this guy will be dominant from the get go. If pre-season is any indication he could be in the running for DPOY award as a rookie. He could lead the league in FF's and possibly put up 10 or more sacks.

7. League Predictions:

Dakota becomes the first 0-16 team in IFL history. Little Rock benefits again as they hold DAK's 1st round pick.

[Suicane]

I predict that if Bart Daniels doesn't sign tonight I'm going to revoke his membership to Burger King.

3. Predict the winner of your conference: Lawrence
4. Predict the Imperial Bowl winner: Lawrence
5. Predict a breakout player on your team: OLB Levon Clemons
6. Predict your team MVP: tough to say with McNeil's injury. I'll say CB Dennis Stephenson
7, 8, etc - Predict whatever you want: Rookie QB Wesley May plays very well for Reno and leads them to several upset wins

[Jave]

2. Predict the winner of your division: Salt Lake City, Oakland or Vancouver

That was bold. Way to go out on a limb:twisted:

[r00k]

1. Predict your team's record: 12-4
2. Predict the winner of your division: Norfolk
3. Predict the winner of your conference: Norfolk (feeling good about the team this year)

5. Predict a breakout player on your team: ILB and special teamer Zach McMeel
6. Predict your team MVP: Cavazos
7. Predict whatever you want: Jave has an opportunity to rejoin the league and does so before the beginning of next year's draft.
