All the free trips to Hollywood have been divvied out as the Madden community readies itself for what could easily be the biggest Madden Challenge in tournament history. As tournament organizers at EA Sports deliberate and rank the gamers accordingly, GotFrag.com has already met to decide on their top 20 going in to the finals. The GotFrag.com Madden Challenge Top 20 is a combined effort between several Madden experts on staff in addition to top 20 lists submitted by our readers. These rankings are unique to GotFrag.com and in no way determine where gamers are placed in the finals bracket. EA Sports’ rankings will determine the order of the finals bracket. That information has not been made available to the public yet.

Problem claims GotFrag.com’s No. 1 spot after early XBOX 360 and Playstation 2 titles. Perennial powerhouse Big Gene weighs in at No. 2 after a convincing win in Chicago along with handing his friend 40 Gs a title in Denver. No. 3 Duke, No. 4 Chow and No. 5 Pr0digy all have played strong enough to record top five finishes.

Newcomers to the rankings were the Canadian champion No. 19 Mohammed Abdulle (MA) who mowed the competition away in Toronto. He brought about the mercy rule in nearly every match he played in. No. 16 Truth made his debut after becoming one of four online qualifiers. No. 13 RG is another online qualifier who cracked the list after he competed in all but one regional qualifier this year. Secret chimed in at No. 20 after receiving a trip to the finals when No. 12 Brusk became unavailable for competition.
