Lavishly's Lines Week #13

10-0 Chicago Mustangs @ 4-7 Harrisburg Heat  This is the first of a two game series that the Heat have with the Mustangs, the last two home games for the Heat, and the last two games that Richard Chinapoo will coach the team at the Farm Show Arena.  Chicago -6 over/under 16

5-6 Wichita B-52's @ 1-10 Tulsa Revolution  The B-52's have beaten the Revolution twice so far but this could be the night Tulsa wins their second game ever.  Wichita -1 o/u 10

2-9 Sacramento Surge @ 10-2 Las Vegas Legends  Surge have no chance.  Las Vegas -8 o/u 12

4-7 Cincinnati Saints @ 6-5 Detroit Waza Flo  Detroit will win this with ease as they tune up for the postseason.  Detroit -5 o/u 15

0-12 Texas Strikers @ 10-2 Dallas Sidekicks  Dallas will run up the score.  Dallas -11 o/u 15

10-0 Chicago Mustangs @ 4-7 Harrisburg Heat  Unfortunately, legendary coach Richard Chinapoo will finish out his last two games at home with losses, but his team will put forward their best effort out of respect for all that he has done for the Heat.  Chicago -2 o/u 14

4-8 Turlock Express @ 5-8 Bay Area Rosal  Bay Area wins at home after losing 2 on the road. Bay Area -2 o/u 12

9-3 San Diego Sockers @ 5-6 Saltillo Rancho Seco  The thing that scares me the most about San Diego going to Mexico and playing is injuries.  I would rather San Diego send their reserves to Saltillo and Monterrey and avoid losing a player to injury than try and win both games, but they wont.  The Saltillo game should go down without any hangups.  San Diego -3 o/u 15

2-9 Sacramento Surge @ 6-5 Mexico Toros  Mexico wins at home and gets closer to securing the third playoff spot in the Pacific.  Mexico -4 o/u 16

9-3 San Diego Sockers @ 12-2 Monterrey Flash  This game is the one that scares me, not because I am worried about the Sockers losing, because that has no real effect on the Sockers who have already secured a spot in the playoffs, but because all of the travel and the game against Saltillo the night before.  I just think that the the Sockers are at an increased risk for injury and Monterrey is where I fear it will happen.  Monterrey -2 o/u 14 

5-6 Saltillo Rancho Seco @ 10-2 Hidalgo La Fiera  Hidalgo wins at home against a fatigued Rancho Seco.  Hidalgo -10 o/u 16


RON NEWMAN CUP FINAL FOUR


1. Chicago Mustangs  The Mustangs have the guaranteed spot as the hosts.

2. Detroit Waza Flo  Detroit is a veteran team that knows how to play in big games, they have the ability to climb back into games when they start out slow, and they have experienced players that know how to win playoff games.  They will get hot when it counts and make a serious run at the Championship.

3. San Diego Sockers  The Sockers will need to beat division rival Las Vegas to get to this spot, and it won't be easy, but beating the Sockers twice in a row will be too much for the Legends, especially with a full Sockers defensive roster. 

4. Monterrey Flash  Hidalgo and Dallas are both great teams, but it will be the Sidekicks lack of a competitive schedule and Hidalgo's inability to control emotions and foul trouble that will hurt them in the end.
