Donnie Football fall short of projections, succumb to Iron City Chuggars in 117.52-94.30 rout

Donnie Football failed to live up to their projected point total, as Iron City Chuggars rolled to a 117.52-94.30 win. There was very little drama in this one, as Iron City Chuggars earned a 33.40-point lead on Thursday behind a impressive showing from Saquon Barkley, who racked up 229 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown. Cam Newton (27.3 points) and Joe Mixon (16.4) did their part for Donnie Football in defeat. Iron City Chuggars (4-2) will look to keep it rolling against Little Machines, while Donnie Football (2-4) will match up against Beantown Champs in an effort to develop some positive momentum.
