IFL Power Rankings, Week 4

[sovstar]

These power rankings are the collaborative work of Cringer, Jeff, and MrBigglesworth. Each team is ranked #1-32 and given a point value on a sliding scale. The column labeled 'points' is the teams' cumulative total of those values and the column to the right of that is the highest of the three ranks. Do enjoy..

Great job guys. The Pirates have never been rated above 7 I think? It is still really early though. 3-0 is great but there are still 13 games to play. A whole hell of a lot will happen.
