The Arizona Outlaws have been enjoying a pretty successful season, and currently occupy first place in the crowded upper echelons of the ASFC with a record of 10-3, good for a .769 win rate. Competition is fierce with the Copperheads and Otters close behind at 9-4, and San Jose only another game back at 8-5. 2 of our three losses have been to Austin and Orange County respectively, with a mildly surprising inter-conference loss to Sarasota mixed in. The competition in the NSFC is a little less intimidating, the obvious exception being Baltimore, which represents the most significant challenge with their dominating 11-2 record. Arizona is led by both a potent offense (PF is 2nd in the ASFC behind OC, 3rd overall in the ISFL) and a competitive defense (PA is 1st in the ASFC and 3rd overall), setting us up for a strong chance at the Ultimus. Baltimore looks like they have the best shot currently, but after their surprising defeat in last season's playoffs, we know they aren't invincible. There's no such thing as a slam dunk, and sim definitely going to sim, but I'm feeling confident the boys can bring it home!
