Fighting Chichiwawas fall short of predictions, succumb to BoomGoestheDynamite, 83.68-55.16

There's no sugarcoating it, Fighting Chichiwawas underperformed, at least based on projections, as BoomGoestheDynamite secured a 83.68-55.16 win. BoomGoestheDynamite earned a 21.90-point lead on Thursday behind 31.9 points from Saquon Barkley, who racked up 229 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown, and never looked back. Joe Mixon (64 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 20 Rec Yds) and Jake Elliott (2-3 FG, 33 long, 4-4 XP) did everything they could for Fighting Chichiwawas in the loss. BoomGoestheDynamite (4-2) will look to keep it rolling against Now were COOKin, while Fighting Chichiwawas (2-4) will meet Football Giants in an effort to get back on track.
