In reply to: Jimmy 's message, "WEEK 6 on deck..." on 19:45:13 08/31/03 Sun

This should be one heck of a game! These 2 teams split their games last season with both teams winning in the other team's house! Springfield was victorious 13-10 in Week 1 and Wichita defeated the Slayers 28-21 in Week 5. Interestingly, the team with the most turnovers in each game lost...hmmm.

Warlords HB Jamie Lee had big games against the Slayers on both occasions, so look for the Slayer D to focus alot of their schemes toward stopping Lee.

Slayer HB Anthony Simmons looks to continue his success thus far and would like to earn Offensive Player of the Week honors again this week!

This one can go either way, but it should be a low to average scoring game..don't see any blowouts with either of these defenses.

Regardless, this game will likely hold a major impact on the division race and maybe even eventual division champ for both teams.

Jimmy has made his prediction...look at the stats and see who you pick to win this game?
