If recent NBBA seasons are any indication, at least one of the four D2 champs that just promoted to the NBBA will be right back in D2 for season 24. Whether its because of overachieving in D2 and not being quite ready, adjusting to the changes and nuances that the NBBA provides that were not experienced in the lower divisions, or simply because playing against the best of the best game in and game out....Staying in the NBBA has proved to be a challenge except for the core group of NBBA masters that seem to have their spot locked each and every season.

The M&Ms (Milwaukee and Myopic) have previously been to the NBBA, while the Star Fliers and Arizona are making their NBBA debuts. I was going to pose the question "Which of these 4 teams is most likely to relegate....However with Milwaukee declaring their hatred of BB, and talking about demoting all the way to D5, that makes that answer might be a little predictable....however, since Donald Trump actually goes to the Milwaukee Lethargy organization for money loans, they could always change their mind and be a contender.

The Great 8 seems to be a bit more in flux top to bottom than the Big 8. LMA is shaking things up and BMG is focusing on training. It's more unpredictable, and teams should be able to pick up some oddball wins.

Compare that to the Big 8, where two teams aren't doing heavy training in Airballers and Silverbacks, so the win/loss disparity should be higher here.

If by in flux you mean returns 7 out of a possible 7 teams than you're right B-)
