Raider4life hand Bloodlust third consecutive loss in 153.30-49.85 rout

Raider4life cruised to a 153.30-49.85 victory to hand Bloodlust their third consecutive loss. Bloodlust leapt out to a 16.85-point lead on Thursday behind a combined 16.85 points from Todd Gurley II (51 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs) and Cory Littleton (7 Tackles). But it was all Raider4life after that. They were led by Will Fuller V (14 Rec, 217 Rec Yds, 3 Rec TDs) and Matt Ryan (330 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs). Raider4life (1-4) will look to keep it rolling against Red Raiders, while Bloodlust (2-3) will take on C WOOD 1998 in an effort to get back in the win column.
