BREAKDOWN
Duke City seems to have had a bit of a resurgence since the arrival of quarterback Charles McCullum. The Gladiators have won two of their last three; both against conference opponents. They enter this week just have game behind the Tucson Sugar Skulls in the Western Conference standings for fourth place. Additionally, the loser of the Arizona Rattlers-Northern Arizona Wranglers contest Saturday night could find themselves in fifth place if the Gladiators win and the Tucson Sugar Skulls defeat the Vegas Knight Hawks in Nevada. They're up against a Panthers team which on a roll, so that won't be easy. Duke City closes the regular season with four straight at home. They score 41.4 points per game (10th in IFL) and allow 48.4 (ninth).

BREAKDOWN
Bay Area is right where they want to be, but the question is: how long will that last? The Panthers face the Gladiators twice, as well as the Arizona Rattlers and Frisco Fighters on the road, during the month of June. They are in a position to make a run, but the next several weeks will provide several tests for the young squad. Quarterback Dalton Sneed is fourth in the IFL with 1,372 passing yards and tied for second with 29 scoring tosses. He and running back Justin Rankin provide a formidable rushing game for the Panthers. One item in favor of the team is that they have the best conference record in the IFL. Conference win percentage is the top playoff tiebreaker. They score 48.0 points per game (T-sixth in IFL) and allow 42.1 (fifth).
