I have looked at the USBC rules and on bowl.com but I can find no
answer that answers my question which is we have a blind team or
we only have 11 teams so does the rules apply to the no honor score
recognition when bowling unopposed if the league has no team even
though it is a regular scheduled league night?

I'm just presuming it does like on pre - post bowl and since we have
to bowl the blind team on Wednesday night guess I'll just take it easy
and not worry to much about trying to bowl an kind of honor score /
series I'll just get within my 10 pins of average for the win.

As far as I know the this rule only applies to pre or post bowling. Bowling unopposed against a blind team is different. There are league bowlers on at least one side of you, if not both sides, so there are potential witnesses to deter any thoughts of cheating. Also your pair of lanes are considered to be in the same condition as the other lanes that the league is bowling on. With pre-bowling no one knows if the conditions are comparable.

If your bowling against a Bye/vacant/blind team/forfeit situation, Any Honor scores you shot count as honor scores.
