G7 cruised to a 133.56-86.36 win over Dirty Dan's Seahawks, knocking them out of the top spot in AIFAFANS.

But it was all G7 after that. They were led by Cooper Kupp (7 Rec, 220 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Tom Brady (259 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs). This marks the first time this season G7 have taken down Dirty Dan's Seahawks, after falling 147.02-88.04 in their last matchup.
