There was much talk about the location of the games (Prospector Park).  Click here for a Google map to the game’s location and click here to view a web page about the location.

Also, ol’ Scorsese was at it again and put together another stellar video of the Eagles versus the Rattlers.  Nice work Ryan… your videos are incredible!

The leagues top teams took care of business as the Eagles, Rams, Predators, Diablos and Rattlers won by comfortable margins as expected.

There was one contest on the slate that had heavy playoff implications as the Cougars from Maricopa squared off against the Tempe Buffaloes. With the win, the Cougars moved to 3-5 and grabbed the 7th seed. The Cardinals benefited from the Buffaloes loss and nabbed the 8th seed and the right to play the Rams next Saturday in the quarter-finals.

Scores from around the league:

Predators 46, Bulldogs 14
Rattlers 13, Cardinals 0
Eagles 18, Miners 0
Rams 23, Vipers 13
Cougars 24, Buffaloes 0
Diablos 24, Pirates 0

Final Regular Season Standings & Playoff Seedings

Stay tuned later this week for game times and location. Should the Eagles (7-1) beat the Miners (4-4), they will likely face the Predators (7-1) in the Semi-finals for the right to play in the League Championship on Saturday, November 10.

The San Tan Youth Football League announced the game format for the playoffs today. Apparently, the playoffs have been expanded to include 8 teams this season. The top 4 teams from each conference will qualify for the playoffs and the first week will include both the quarter-final and semi-final matchups. Each division will be assigned to a single site for the 11/3 showdown. Sites have yet to be determined.

The seedings will be determined as follows (tie-breakers in descending order):

  1. Winning Percentage
  2. Head to Head Matchups
  3. Points Allowed

Based on this formula, the current seedings would look like this:

  1. Rams (7-0)
  2. Predators (6-1) (Predators beat Eagles 13-6)
  3. Eagles (6-1)
  4. Diablos (5-2)
  5. Rattlers (4-3) (Rattlers beat Miners 21-0)
  6. Miners (4-3)
  7. Cougars (2-5) (Cougars beat Cardinals 7-0)
  8. Cardinals (2-5)


Assuming this holds… the Quarterfinal matchups would be as follows:

#1 Rams vs #8 Cardinals
#2 Predators vs #7 Cougars
#3 Eagles vs #6 Miners
#4 Diablos vs #5 Rattlers

Then, later that afternoon the Semi-Final matchups would be as follows:

Winner #1 vs #8 versus Winner #4 vs #5
Winner #2 vs #7 versus Winner #3 vs #6

Now I’m not the gambling type, but if I were I’d lay money down that the semi-final matchups would be as follows:

Rams versus Rattlers
Eagles versus Predators

The Championship game will be held on Saturday 11/10. Early prediction… Eagles and Rams battle it out for league supremacy.

In turn and perhaps somewhat sadly, I can now satiate my obsessive compulsive desire to publish the STYFL Mighty Might football standings for Week 5. But first, a review of the scores from around the league.

Eagles 27, Cardinals 0
Rams 36, Cougars 12
Rattlers 21, Miners 0
Predators 26, Buffaloes 0
Diablos 32, Vipers 0
Bulldogs 7, Pirates 0

No huge upsets here with the top teams taking care of business. Of note, the Predators beat our next opponent 26-0 and our last two games are against the Rattlers and Miners respectively. The Rattlers game could very well determine the winner of the division. But hey… let’s not look ahead… we’ve got to take care of business against the Buffaloes on Saturday at 10am at Tempe High School. Should be fun!

ARGH… where the heck are the darn scoring updates from this weekends football action? I’m dyin’ over here… help a brutha out!? I have literally visited the STYFL.com web site about 150 times today. Obsessive, yes I know, but I’m trying to give y’all an update on this weekend’s action and I want to put up an image of the updated standings. I don’t think I’m asking for all that much really. Just a score on the Bulldogs versus Pirates game. If any of you have any pull with the commish or know the score for some reason, please post a comment.

Thanks,

The Editor
