Week 1 Preds

So the season is underway and the first week looks to have some decent matchups. With 2 HUGE matchups in 8bc vs BnR and FR vs SS. This season looks to be a close one in both conferences, who will come out on top?


8BC (0-0) vs BnR (0-0)

8BC has been good as of recent and has suprised people in WSOP. They beat BnR 4-3 in WSOP, but PRO is totally different, they can'r rely on a tiebreak, and can't afford getting down 3-1 early. 8BC needs there top guns for this match, this includes Raj, Matt, JJ and Kron. BnR is going to bring there top guns, which may prove trouble for 8BC. Raj carried them most of the season last season, he may need a repeat performance. But with Matt on there side this season and with JJ playing decent that adds some depth. But BnR with Mina, Jordy, and Ross as there main 3, it could prove a short night. I doubt 8BC will let BnR shut them out, but if BnR brings the 3 aforementioned players, along with Crozzy and if Crozzy can get a key win, BnR could take this one easy. Look for BnR to get redemption and not let this one go as easy as the WSOP match.

5-2 BnR



SP (0-0) vs SPS (0-0)

SP looked solid in there last WSOP match, and with the surprise adding of Kevin, SP looks to be even more dominant then they were before. With Mike, Kev, Craig, Roy, and Cubby rivaling any 5 in PRO SPS looks to be in trouble. SP really restructured this offseason, keeping members of last seasons team while dropping Shane and Timm. Missy could come back this season and if she does that adds even more depth. But with role players like Kerry, Ste, Adam, Jamie, Ketan, Brice and Candi, SP looks like they're alot stronger than people expected this season. On the other side. SPS has Jason, Monte, and Joe, and if those 3 don't start playing like top players this Match will be short. SPS came into this season looking to make playoffs, but that could get off to a fast halt and give them a reality check. This match is a uphill battle that I don't think SPS can win.

5-1 SP



FR (0-0) vs SS (0-0)

This is my match of the week. FR coming in off a disappointing end to there season last season on dominating there conference and falling short to LPL is looking to come back firing. If DJ plays for FR and Petey can get Trav, Sid, Nish, Matt all to show up it could be another dominating regular season for FR. FR is looking to be the big dogs and prove that they are the best team in PRO, but they won't have a easy task. Because with LPL and SS in there conference it could get dicey. FR looks to prove that they're the top team however in this conference and look to open with a dominating win over a vulnerable SS team. SS will definitely need Jon and Pita to show, and just not show, but carry this SS team. With the loss of Craig there star-power went down. However they did add Scott, but can be be relied on? If Scott can be reliable then SS could put up a fight in this match. I don't however, I just think FR has much more skill and more determination in this match and seeing as they have been together the longest and SS had to add players quickly they could be in trouble. Will SS prove they are a team to be messed with? Or will they fall to the bottom quickly and be forced to mount a comeback like they did last season? FR comes away with this one.


5-2 FR


DS (0-0) vs LPL (0-0)


Welcome DS back to PRO. However, DS will need more than Eddie to take out LPL. Thomas can pick up some wins yes, but he can't be relied on to carry a team. Eddie looks to be DS's best player, and if he gets taken out, as well as w00dman, I'm sorry to say but this will be a shutout. DS needs to focus on beating Daru, last seasons MVP. If DS can take out Daru, then it could be a easier match for them. DS, will need to add a few more players or recruit from within and prove they have the skill to compete. For LPL, with MJ withdrawing and Kevin being on and off, and never knowing when they will show up, what will happen? Daru will need to show up with Luis, Oscar and Tino. If they do that than its possible that LPL can shutout DS. however as I said before. LPL will need to prove they can continually show up with 5, cause 3 may not get it done. I have confidence that LPL will show up with 5, but DS could show up with 5 and could be more hungry and take out LPL. But I don't see that happening. LPL should take this one. Possibly a shutout, but I don't think Eddie will allow LPL to shut them out.

5-3 LPL
