Subject: Week 12 FIFL excitement!

We managed to break even vs the spread and straight up last week… still sub-par for the Hanlon Indian Bingo Casino handicappers. Kudos to the dedicated owners of the FIFL! Obviously, owners are proving savvy personnel moves and PPP selections make a difference. This continues to impede our progress setting betting lines. These exiting games have driven up attendance and TV ratings… Even supposedly ZZZzzz games are providing excellent entertainment. Expect more of the same as this season unfolds. We’re moving into gun shy mode, but what the hell… it’s FUN!

GAME OF THE WEEK!

Make or break for Portland. GREAT gut check W last week. Gut check game [TO THE MAX] this week. Line set at Utah – 3.

Portland (7-4) at Utah (8-3)

POR offense 12th 80.6 rush - [14th] / 247.7 pass - [7th]
defense 7th 90.3 rush - [8th] / 231.4 pass - [7th]
scoring 20.2 for - [11th] / 18.5 against - [6th]

UTA offense 11th 78.3 rush - [15th] / 251.8 pass - [5th]
defense 14th 99.9 rush - [11th] / 245.1 pass - [13th]
scoring 22.6 for - [2nd] / 18.6 against - [7th]

Take your pick?

Battle for division AND conference title? Wichita made their point last week the traditional fading is over. War Lords HB Jamie Lee went where no HB has gone B4 this season… 100 + yds on the ground vs Louisiana. VERY impressive since Louisiana is still ranked #1 in rush D. The mean Machine tripped up Utah last week. BOTH teams have to be stoked… or are they emotionally exhausted from last week? Welcome to the unexplored territory. Pick ‘em.

Black Hills (8-3) at Wichita (7-4)

BLK offense 13th 129.2 rush - [2nd] / 196.9 pass - [17th]

scoring 21.7 for - [3rd] / 19.2 against - [8th]

How the once mighty have fallen in both cases? The Beast made personnel moves B4 almost very game this season. They paid the price last week… it’s a TEAM game and chemistry is important… especially on the ` O ‘ line. Expect zero changes from Louisiana management this season. They apparently have relied so heavily on the rush attack that they have forgotten how to employ the pass attack… NOT good. The Fire Dogs defense has so far deserted the team this season. BOTH of these teams know what’s coming this week. Line set at Louisiana – 1 ½…

scoring 20.7 for - [8th] / 20.6 against - [12th]

Dayton preordained this season? Historically, Dayton is due for a road loss. We can’t see it happening… yes Matilda, Dayton IS that good. This team is fully capable of running the table. Line set at Dayton – 3 ½.

??? “20th century schizoid man” crooned Ray Davies of he Kinks. The mantra of Colorado this season? COLORADO LOST at Lincoln last week?
