The TSFA had their first league meeting this past week.  So far 8 teams are set to be in competition with a probability of 10 teams total.  Twelve teams could possibly comprise the league, but that doesn't seem likely at this point.  

With a lower than usual number of teams in the league it is probable that there will not be two conferences.  Every team will play every other team and the top 6 will make the playoffs.  The top 2 teams would receive a first round bye.  And the top seed would play the lowest seed that advances from the first round of play.  

The confirmed 8 teams are...

RENEGADES - Defending South Conf. and TSFA Champs

OUTLAWZ - Defending North Conf. Champs

BULLDAWGS - 09 South #1 Seed

LONGHORNS - 09 North #3 Seed

BUCS - 09 North #4 Seed (upset #1 Seed REVOLUTION)

WRECKING CREW - 09 South #4 Seed

PHOENIX - 09 Missed Playoffs

TIGERS - NEW: PANTHERS and RHINOS organizations teamed up

The REVOLUTION and WOLVERINES are still possible participants, but haven't been heard from yet.

The COWBOYS and BANDITS are out.

None of this is set in stone yet.  It is still early and things can change.
