12 GAGE fall short of predictions, lose to VOL NATION in 112.64-78.66 rout

There's no easy way to put it, 12 GAGE didn't do their job, at least based on projections, as VOL NATION cruised to a 112.64-78.66 win. It didn't take long to figure out who would lead the way in this matchup, as VOL NATION took a 28.40-point lead on Thursday behind impressive performances from Chris Godwin (23.1 points) and Christian McCaffrey (5.3). Dak Prescott (269 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 69 Rush Yds) and James Conner (33 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 12 Rec Yds) led the way for 12 GAGE in the loss. VOL NATION (2-0) will look to sustain their momentum against Back2Back quarters, while 12 GAGE (1-1) take on Whatsgoingon? in an effort to get back on track.
