People seemed to like the tiered groupings from last year so they’re back for 2017! In case you don’t remember, the computer takes in all the teams and clusters them based on how they’ve scored points so far and how many wins they have. The craziest thing about the tiers so far this season is how tight some of the clusters are.
The Top Dogs: These teams are top in points and atop their division.
- Butthole Surfers
- Giant Octopus
The Contenders: You can’t even see all the teams because they’re so similar in score. These teams are right in the thick of it and really beating the shit out of the lower half of the league.
- Shellbyville Shittysauruses
- Philadelphia Shenanihads
- Dreadmetal Pumaskulls
Staying Alive: These teams haven’t scored nearly as much as the teams above, but have scored enough wins to stay competitive. They’ll need to get in shape if they want to secure a playoff spot.
- Robot Unicorn
- Springfield Atoms
- Fluffy Bunnies
Toilet Bowl Bound: Another tight cluster, these are teams that have barely put together a win (if at all) and are all averaging less than 100 points a game. They’ve got some serious work to do if they want to get back in it this season.
- Nibblonians
- TGIF
- Mega Shark
- Nellis AFB Boomers
Here’s how the teams have scored so far this season. The colors indicate the teams they’re lumped up with. There’s a pretty big cutoff after the Pumaskulls. The top 5 teams in the league are averaging 116 points a game, while the bottom 7 teams are averaging 88.
