In 2007, only the Salt Lake Seminoles were added to the RMFL field, however, as they effectively replaced the folding Salt Lake Nemesis, the league finally enjoyed a season of relative growth stability. The biggest story of 2007 was that the Ogden Rhino-Raider win streak, dating back to the Utah Football League days (pre-2004) finally came to an end. The Rhino-Raiders would lose battles to both the Idaho Falls Mustangs and Utah Wolverines during the regular season... however, would ultimately win the war. The Bitterroot Blaze asserted themselves at the top of the AA power structure, not only going undefeated, wire-to-wire to capture the AA title in 2007, however, they set a number of records in points allowed, defense, and rushing as Justin Nixon rushed to another rushing title and a AA MV

  • In 2007, only the Salt Lake Seminoles were added to the RMFL field, however, as they effectively replaced the folding Salt Lake Nemesis, the league finally enjoyed a season of relative growth stability. The biggest story of 2007 was that the Ogden Rhino-Raider win streak, dating back to the Utah Football League days (pre-2004) finally came to an end. The Rhino-Raiders would lose battles to both the Idaho Falls Mustangs and Utah Wolverines during the regular season... however, would ultimately win the war. The Bitterroot Blaze asserted themselves at the top of the AA power structure, not only going undefeated, wire-to-wire to capture the AA title in 2007, however, they set a number of records in points allowed, defense, and rushing as Justin Nixon rushed to another rushing title and a AA MVP award. The Blaze would ultimately defeat rival, Missoula for the third time in the season by a score of 15-0 to win the title. Missoula would enter the Championship game, having pulled off perhaps the biggest upset victory of the season, a 34-28 road victory over the top-ranked Vipers from Northern Utah. The Rhino-Raiders would capture the AAA (and overall) RMFL title with another tight victory over their biggest rival, the Cache Valley Bears 16-14. The Rhinos had beaten the Bears earlier in the season 7-6 by virtue of a blocked extra point. They would capture their 4th straight RMFL title, once again, behind a great rushing performance, this time, by Justin Oswald who rushed for 161 yards in the contest and was named the games MVP. The Madison Lionz (renamed Eastern Idaho Lionz) saw their first season without reigning MVP, Troy Dougherty, and fell to the Rhino-Raiders in the quarterfinals 27-21. In what was announced as his "final" season of semi-pro football, Rhino GM and star quarterback, Dave Stireman, finally captured the elusive league MVP award in leading the defending champions back from adversity all season, all the way to another title.
