SG Team 58 come up short of predictions, lose to Aussig Spartans in 97.26-50.44 rout

SG Team 58 failed to bring their A game, coming up short of their projected point total, as Aussig Spartans cruised to a 97.26-50.44 win. Aussig Spartans pulled out to an early 6.00-point lead on Thursday. SG Team 58 came back to take the lead early Sunday, powered by Drew Brees (14.94 points) and Mark Ingram (11.3). Unphased, Aussig Spartans rallied later that afternoon, as Michael Badgley (17 points) and Alshon Jeffery (11) put them back on top for good. This marks the first time this season Aussig Spartans have knocked off SG Team 58, after falling 84.24-52.02 in their last matchup.

Coach Talk

Aussig Spartans
You know, this sport is all about exploiting the mismatches. We really took that to heart this week by doubling up SG Team 58 at the wide receiver position (21.1 points to 10.3).
SG Team 58
Talk about under-utilized: The starting backfield for SG Team 58 collectively registered just one catch on four measly targets this past week. Tell those quarterbacks to check down a little more often in Week 15!
