Young Gun Football travels across the border to face the Illegal Alien Babies in a pivotal matchup for both teams as well as the rest of the league. YGF enters Week 8 with a league-best 6-1 record but needs a win this weekend to hold the rest of the Lightning Division at bay. Coach Jason Young will piece together a patchwork offensive attack, as five of his players are out with byes and two more are out with injuries. The Illegal Alien Babies enter this week's contest in a tie for first place in the Thunder Division. Coach Darrell Campbell will deploy a three wide-receiver set as well as newly acquired tight end Heath Miller in attempting to pull out the victory. In order for YGF to have a chance in this one, rookie and former Safety Blitz QB Andy Dalton will need to play well against Seattle.
Carmichael's Crusaders (-33) @ Riley's Vikings
These two organizations are travelling in opposite directions as Carmichael's Crusaders enter Week 8 on a five game winning streak while Riley's Vikings have suffered six losses in a row. Carmichael's Crusaders is looking at this weekend as an opportunity to enter a tie for first place in the Thunder Division with a win and a YGF loss. Coach Ethan Hudson appears to be looking forward to Week 9 already, stating in his press conference that "I'll beat BJ next week to tie the record," referring to the BHFFC winning streak record of seven games. Riley's Vikings are in dire need of a victory this week after losing six straight and being in danger of matching the BHFFC record of seven straight losses. Coach Adam Warren believes he has the answer this week despite his constant efforts to trade this past week. Look for this game to be determined by the ability of Riley's Vikings running backs to perform to their capabilities.
Toejam Football (-24) @ Tebow's Youth Group
These two future wedding ushers will lock horns instead of practicing their ushering techniques this weekend in a pivotal matchup for both teams. Toejam Football is coming off an emotional win in Week 7 and is looking to keep pace in the high octane Lightning Division. Coach Zach Maddux is hopeful that Reggie Bush can produce in the absence of Darren McFadden, who is out on a bye this week. Tebow's Youth Group is coming off an emotional victory over Tim Tebow himself and riding a three game winning streak. Coach Daniel Campbell has been seen 'Tebowing' numerous times throughout the week in honor of his hero.Look for this game to be determined by whether or not Bush can take advantage of Daniel Thomas' absence to put up key points in the flex position.
Play Action Pass (+18) @ The Pessimists
Play Action Pass will load up the flatbed pickup trucks and make the journey to Newburn, TN to face The Pessimists. PAP will deploy a twin tight end set this week behind two of the most lethal tight ends in football. Coach David Looper is concerned with his running attack, however, as both Danny Woodhead and Dexter McCluster have struggled to establish consistency this season. The Pessimists are looking to rebound from a Week 7 loss and the loss of standout receiver Santana Moss, who is out for at least three weeks. Coach BJ Hudson will lean heavily on Matthew Stafford and Ray Rice to attempt to pull out the victory. In a game that contains a number of superstar perfromances, The Pessimists will need someone other than Stafford and Rice to produce points to have a chance in this one.
We Got Big TDs (-2) @ Safety Blitz
In one of two spouse matchups in Week 8, We Got Big TDs travels to 'The Devil's Den' to battle Safety Bitz. The Big TDs are playing their cards close to the vest, as they have yet to announce their official starting lineup. Coach Tara Campbell is hopeful that her running game can get on track, as they have struggled to establish a consisten rushing attack so far this year. Safety Blitz will look to defend their home turf and maintain at least a share of first place in the defensive minded Thunder Division. Coach Phillip Campbell vows that his squad will not be distracted by the Big TDs and has practiced with nude cheerleaders on the sideline at practice all week. This game could easily be determined by a battle of backup-turned-starter running backs between Jackie Battle and Bernard Scott.
Maddawg's Tight End (+28) @ Campbell's Crusaders
In a battle of future newlyweds, Maddawg's Tight End travels to the other side of the bed to battle Campbell's Cougars. MTE, who has yet to finalize their starting lineup for Week 8 as of press time, needs a win to keep pace in the Lightning Division. Coach Miranda Maddux is still without standout reciever Andre Johnson, who she hopes will return in Week 9. Campbell's Crusaders asked for and received permission to move this game to the Superdome in New Orleans, LA in an effort to expand their fan base. Coach Matthew Campbell's squad arrived in New Orleans a few days early in order to become better acclimated with the boobs and whiskey that is associated with Bourbon Street. Look for this game to be determined by which team's receivers can make plays down the field.

Spouses Weekend
In a pure coincedence of scheduling, spouses Phillip and Tara Campbell as well as future spouses Matthew Campbell and Miranda Maddux will face off in Week 8. While the latter couple has moved their game to a neutral site in New Orleans, LA, Coach Phillip Campbell refused to follow suit for fear of angering his season ticket holders. When informed that Week 8 is being dubbed "Spouses Weekend," Coach Darrell Campbell stated, "I guess that means that Young will be my b!t$h this week!"
