Predicting the Week 1 Regional Rankings – Episode 67

It’s an exciting week on the D3 Datacast as we anticipate the release of the first regional rankings! We’ve crunched the numbers and sifted through the data so all that is left to do is go region-by-region and make our predictions.

The official regional rankings for week one will not be a ranked set but will instead be presented in alphabetical order. Our predictions include ranked positions to help determine where we think the hard decisions will need to be made. In some cases the regions look pretty clear but in others there are a few scenarios that wouldn’t surprise us.

We wrap up with a look back at our week 13 picks and make our picks on a new five game slate for week 14. This week’s show wraps up with two questions in the mailbag. If you have something you would like for us to address in next week’s mailbag, leave a comment below or connect with us through one of our social media channels.
