Re: Scoring Predictions Anyone?

I'm not complaining, our alliance last year needed to have a high scorer (987 from Las Vegas) and an effective defender (177 from Connecticut).
Just to back up what you said here.

BAE held the highest scoring match until week 5 with 312 points (in a semi-final no less).

We may be known for some brutal defense, but we are by no means weak on offense either.
