Women's+ Season 4 Power Rankings: Week 6
1 Bush Gard'ems (Forest Green) 6-1
How can we say this gently? Never have we seen a game played so hard for so little points, except maybe this week’s game between Pink and Blue. With a mostly full roster, only short Des and 0 reported injuries, Green looked well rested on the sidelines as they slowly descended into panic into the final seconds of the game. Something they would not have had to worry about if they could figure out the difference between blocking and holding or throwing the ball and jumping. Despite all this, Lynch is still undefeated in games she actually played. The Green team rode this high all the way to Shaw’s and Kiki for a Sunday Funday I am sure they all forget.
2 Citrus Got Real (Neon Orange) 5-2
Having held the number one spot this season, it is no surprise that Orange finds themselves among the top. What is surprising, and equally impressive, is that they played how they did on Sunday with only 1 sub. Pretty sure that orange was outnumbered by Green AND by the babies on the sideline. That is also equally as embarrassing for the Green team. Luck is on this team’s side as their 2 TDs this week were the result of 2 individual plays. If the only time you score is on huge plays, does that make you a good team or a lucky team? Considering how many shutouts they have had this season, my guess is the former but Orange has yet to beat the Green team yet. If it’s the final matchup we are expecting, Orange needs to come up with an answer for Lynch.
3 BlU-Haulers (Atomic Blue) 4-2
With no Meg, can we still say nothing matters until playoffs? An absent Meg means that Kori came back out to play QB, something they have not been subjected to, I mean treated to, since last season. Blue was trying to do anything except score to give themselves a win this week, managing to get into the endzone only one time. Though the score did leave the offense missing Meg, Blue managed to somewhat successfully keep Pink out of the endzone, at least until the final moments. Listen to your captains folks, XPs matter, just ask the Pink team.
4 Currant-ly Better Than U (Maroon) 2-5
Well, the currants came to play this week. In case you didn’t know, QB Shayne hates losing. Shayne took the game into her own hands, by personally scoring 12 points, throwing 2 additional TDs, and pulling an INT from the air. Look out for this team in the last few weeks as they try to live up to their confident name and take home the ship, and not just a Dundie for the most unique team name.
5 Yeah Glow (Neon Yellow) 2-5
Attention Glowers: the season is not over yet! You have a 9AM game on Sunday! Yeah Glow needs to find their team and finish out the season. We are hearing Nour is promising a round of drinks for any of you that come to the games this weekend. Joking aside, this team can play when they show up and there’s a good chance they can have an excellent run in the playoffs if the numbers cooperate.
6 Pink Pony Club (Neon Pink) 1-5
Once Pink figures out how to score more than once a game it’s OVER for the rest you. I prefer good news before bad news so we have to shout out the defense on this team for holding Blue for the entire second half. You guys were working your pink pony butts off. Now for the bad news, you guys do have good players, we are just not convinced YOU guys know that. It feels like a different Pink team is playing every week; if they figure out the problem before playoffs, this team could have the best comeback the Womens+ division has ever seen.
