Unofficial Scenarios for top 3 places
Dave:
With 397 points and Andy not having any fighters, I'm pretty sure (note the unofficial in the post title) that the worst Dave can finish is 3rd. And that would be quite an upset if he did finish that low.
Also unofficially, if Dave gets a win out of Thiago Silva OR Mike Pierce, I'm pretty sure that he will win it all. If he doesn't get any points from those two fighters, he can still win it all. So, it's likely Dave will get 1st or 2nd.
Andy:
Andy is in 2nd with 391 points, and he can't get any higher. He should be rooting for Jake Shields to beat Demian Maia and would still have enough points to keep 2nd away from Bill if Shields wins. There is a possibility that Thomas can sneak in here too, but he would have to have all three of his fighters get some kind of bonus in addition to a first round submission or knockout. So, it's likely that Andy will get 2nd or 3rd.
Nate:
With 382 points, a Demian Maia win over Jake Shields pretty much guarantees 2nd place (again...unofficial). In the event that both of Dave's fighters lose and Maia gets a knockout and/or a bonus of some kind, I can still take first. I can also keep hold of third even if Bill gets a win with Shields over Maia....depending on the outcome. So, I can get 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or possibly be out of the money altogether.
Bill:
With 365 points, Bill will need to have Jake Shields record some kind of knockout or submission to Demian Maia to have a chance at 3rd place. He could get a win from Shields and still be SOL. A first round knockout or sub with no bonus would mean Nate and Bill tie. A knockout or sub bonus in any round would give Bill enough for 3rd place.
Thomas:
Jon has three fighters in this last event but needs 50 points from them and a Demian Maia loss to have any shot. Unofficially he would need all three fighters to record first round knockouts and a couple of bonuses. He's a long shot to place.

Season 4 Winding Down
The end of another successful Fantasy UFC Season is winding down. Here are the details how this exciting season will close out.
Gaffney holds the lead as of right now by 8 points over Andy. He also has 5 fighters left to add to his total for the season (tied for most in the league.
Andy only has one fighter left, but it's Jon Bones Jones so in all likelihood we can add another 27-30 on to Andy's total. Will that be enough to stay in the money? I'd say it's a good bet.
Bill has four fighters left and has a 23 point lead over Nate for the final money spot.
Nate has three possible winners left as two of his fighters square off for the Bantamweight Championship on 9/21. That guaranteed 20 plus makes things interesting. We might find that both the Brendan Schaub vs. Matt Mitrione fights and Jake Shields v. Demian Maia fights will be huge for who gets 3rd place....maybe even higher.
Don't forget about Thomas as he is only three points behind Nate and has five fighters left in the last two events.
Bones is probably out of it with three fighters left and more than 50 points (after taking in to account Nate's guaranteed 20 something in the next event) to make up.
Bug is done.
Chris is done.
