Insider Predictions – 2016 – Quarter Finals

NFC Insider
Quarter Final Predictions

Sault @ GTA
The defending National Champs [GTA All Stars] should steamroll thru this game. The Sault will play hard but the short bench will be too much for them. The only question for GTA is whether Tommy plays or watches from the sideline. I think he plays this one.
Prediction:
GTA wins 42-3

Oakville @ Sarnia
The Longhorns have had a few bye weeks to end the season. But with AJ gone to the CFL – they don’t stand much of a chance this week. Sarnia looked sharp on offense, defense and special teams last week. They are ready for a championship run.
Prediction:
Sarnia wins 63-0

Hamilton @ Tri City
The Outlaws are playing hard nosed football and have gotten better every week. The Patriots have been up and down all year. I’m going with the Outlaws in this one.
Prediction
Tri City wins 28-17

Sudbury @ Ottawa
Haven’t heard much from the Invaders since they were beaten week 9 by the All Stars. The Spartans choked badly against Sarnia week 10 and looked horrible on both sides of the ball.
This is going to be a rebound battle for both teams. The home side has the advantage and should squeak out the win.
Prediction:
Ottawa wins 17-14

Insider Predictions – Week 8 – 2016

NFC Insider – Predictions Week 8

Last week was a small victory 2-0
Bringing the season to 16-7

Sarnia @ GTA
History seems to repeat itself over and over again when these two teams match up. Given the last meeting. I’m going with the National Champs in another rout.
Prediction
GTA wins 56-14

Ottawa @ Oakville
Ottawa is rolling and the Horns are falling. I’m going with the Invaders in a big score.
Prediction
Ottawa wins 35-0

Hamilton @ Sault
The Sault always plays tough at home. I expect this to be a defensive struggle. Hamilton wins in a tight game.
Prediction
Hamilton wins 17-16

Sudbury @ Tri City
Last time these two teams met it went to overtime in a nail biter. Picking the Spartans on the road in another close one.
Prediction
Sudbury wins 21-17

Insider Predictions – Week 5 – 2016

NFC Insider Predictions
Week 5

Went 4-0 last week with picks

NFC Insider season record 11-3

Oakville @ Hamilton
There is no love lost between these two programs. They simply don’t like each other. That’s probably a mild understatement. This will be an emotional contest with the winner taking home bragging rights for the year. Keep the discipline in check boys!!!
Prediction: Hamilton wins 28-24

GTA @ Sarnia
This is my pick for game of the week. The Imps have come a long way since that 96-1 loss to GTA in 2014. This is going to be a heated game with emotions running high on both teams. The more disciplined team will win this one and my pick is Sarnia in a squeaker.
Prediction: Sarnia wins 28-27

Tri City @ Sault
The Outlaws have the stronger all around team. They play the run very well and the Sault is a run heavy team. Still beating the Sault in the Sault is no easy task. This year I will pick the Outlaws to avenge the loss from last season.
Prediction: Tri City wins 21-20

Sudbury @ Ottawa
This game will be closer than anyone would imagine. If the Spartans offence continues where they left off last week- this may even be an upset. Ottawa needs to play a complete game on offence, defense and special teams to win this one.
Prediction: Ottawa wins 24-21

Insider Predictions – Week 4

NFC Insider Predictions – Week 4

Well after last weeks 1-2 record, I wouldn’t put much into this weeks picks.

NFC Insider season record 7-3

Oakville @ Sudbury
The Spartans sputtered on the offensive side of the ball with far too many turnovers last week. Even then the game was incredibly close. The Horns will need a full roster to pull this one off in Sudbury.
Prediction: Sudbury wins 21-17

Hamilton @ GTA
The Patriots are coming off a big win and a Bye week. The All Stars lost their first game since 2014. But they signed Touchdown Tommy to fill the QB void. They were hoping to run the table this season and Ottawa took that away. Playing GTA after their first loss in a few years is no easy task.
Prediction: GTA wins 42-13

Soo @ Sarnia
The second half of the home and home this weekend. The Imp’s are rested and will have a full roster at home. The Steelers will travel for the second week in a row. The Sault defense is playing stellar but when you run the ball 50 times a game – you need a back like Gauthier and he’s not there this season.
Prediction: Sarnia wins 21-7

Ottawa @ Tri City
This is my pick for game of the week. The Invaders are coming off a big win over GTA. The Outlaws have been playing the run tough all year – and Ottawa relies on their run game.
Should be close tough game.
Prediction: Ottawa wins 17-14 in a nail biter.
