Back-and-forth battle ends with BSU Beavers coming back to knock off I WIN!!! in 331-230 rout

Well, that was exhilarating! After a back-and-forth matchup featuring three lead changes, BSU Beavers cruised to a 331-230 victory to hand I WIN!!! their 10th straight loss. I WIN!!! jumped out to an early 47-point lead on Thursday behind stellar performances from Davante Adams (36 points) and Doug Baldwin (18). BSU Beavers came back to take the lead during the early slate on Sunday, powered by stellar performances from Ha Ha Clinton-Dix (39 points) and Leighton Vander Esch (29). Not to be deterred, I WIN!!! pulled it together later that afternoon to take a 40-point lead behind Philip Rivers (88 points) and the New Orleans Saints defense (31). But BSU Beavers came back again at the last minute on Monday night, as Jared Goff (104 points) and Kareem Hunt (20) put them back ahead for good. This marks the second time this season BSU Beavers have taken down I WIN!!!, after winning 212-157 in their last matchup. BSU Beavers (9-2) will look to maintain their momentum against Jeff Beetle, while I WIN!!! (1-10) will attempt to get back in the win column against Tim's Team.
