Here are my ratings: with likelihoods of winning the taco bowl!

1. Tacoma Thunder (12-4, 1st Cheesy) 26%
Definitely the strongest team this year, and owns homefield advantage. They are the only team with a differential over 100, and they are equally elite on offense and defense. They are definitely the team to beat here.

2. Scranton Papermakers (13-3, 1st Salsa) 18%
Similarly to the Thunder, they absolutely killed it this year. They also were excellent on both offense and defense, but maybe were a little less tested this year than the Cheesy conference elites. The good news is, the Salsa bracket is likely an easier path.

3. Rio de Janeiro Pirates (10-6, 3rd Cheesy) 15%
Poor Pirates.. Arguably the best roster in the league, but just ran into a very difficult schedule. And it doesn't end there. Their path to the championship probably means beating the Direwolves and the Thunder on the road, then potentially face the Papermakers as well. If any team can defy those odds though, its the Pirates.

4. Iowa Jagwads (11-5, 3rd Salsa) 11%
If you have Brees and Hill, you have an offense that can make a ton of noise. I could easily see them running through the Starfells and the Papermakers and punch their ticket to the Taco Bowl.

5. Egypt Starfells (10-6, 2nd Salsa) 10%
Started strong, and fizzled at the end of the season.. Nevertheless, they have a decent offense and the best defensive player in the league. They definitely have the juice to go on a hot streak.

6. Reykjavik Direwolves (11-5, 2nd Cheesy) 9%
The record doesn't necessarily tell the whole story. This is an up and down team - which could make them a quick exit, but also gives the opportunity for a hot streak. Unfortunately, their path is going to go through the Pirates, likely the Thunder, and likely a great team in the Salsa conference. The odds are stacked against them, but this is the final team that I feel like has a real opportunity to take home the trophy.

7. Freiburg Venom (9-6-1, 4th Salsa) 6%
A very surprising 5 game run to sneak into the playoffs.. An offense with Jameis Winston, Derrick Henry, D.J. Moore, and Chris Godwin as the main pieces? It's hard to see the success continuing, but if they can knock off the Papermakers, you really have to re-evaluate their odds.

8. Hanoi Viet Kongs (10-6, 4th Cheesy) 5%
Another team that is a surprise to have made it this far. It was a really strong performance this season, outplaying their roster, but ultimately their road to the ship is just too difficult. If they beat Tacoma, then maybe I'm more of a believer, but at this point its hard to give them too many odds

I'd hope you'd be a believer at that point... if they beat Tacoma, they become the S17 Champions.

Oh I thought you depred but I derped, I thought that was Freiburg's write up lol

Yeah, I can see how you derped - because Freiburg belongs as the last team on the list..

Only reason Freiburg ended above Hanoi is because Hanoi has a markedly more difficult path to get there

In addition to these, the following brackets were wrong in some way but still in play to predict the overall champion (grouped by their chosen champion):

Iowa - Glen, SirA1
Tacoma - RuskieTitan, El ramster, Malfatron
Scranton - ravens5520
Rio de Janeiro - khodder
