BUAFL Predict-O-Matics MVP Game Prediction

Northern Allstars v Southern Allstars

As you may know by now the Predict-o-Matic doesn't care much for what the squishy brained people predict - their processors simply can't compute the same way a computer can. However i think i run the risk of being called predictable in choosing the outcome of this game.

The North have once more assembled a fantastic squad with a great chance of winning. However my sources tell me they're not turning up to training and this is especially true of some of their key players. It isn't a clever move as the team risks not gelling as a unit before the big game. The North have a great stable of running backs and, perhaps controversially, I think will hold the advantage in this department. Most of their backs are used to making hard yards without the benefits of great blocks so it makes sense that with an all star line they should excel. Having said that the South may well benefit from a better executed run game as my readouts are telling me the Southern Oline is superior overall.

Defensive line wise im speaking from experience when i say i'm convinced the Norths Dline holds the upper hand. Having observed the best both Dlines have to offer the North are better athletes with both a size and speed advantage. They match up well with the South's Oline and this could turn out to be the key battle in deciding the outcome in this matchup. Can the Northern Dline dominate like they did last year?

Where the South pulls away from the North is in the QB and DB units. The WRs feel evenly matched, despite the North having a bigger pool to pick from. Both Varney and Boyle from the South are able to make all the throws but can also hand off!!!! (in case you ask, I have had a GeFOrce sarcasm graphics card installed). Unless the rain hits Birmingham this weekend I can see Varney and co airing it out and scoring big.

It's for this reason I think the South will pull away. The Northern run game is solid and more than capable but its the Southern offence that's a threat to score every time it lines up on the LOS.

The Predict-o-Matic is going for a 31-14 Southern victory.
