Peoria Hurricanes beat Melonville LaRues for fourth straight win in 126-78 rout

Peoria Hurricanes extended their win streak to four games with a dominant victory over Melonville LaRues, rolling to a 126-78 win. Melonville LaRues leapt out to a 27-point lead on Thursday behind impressive efforts from Melvin Gordon III, who racked up 133 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown for 18 points, and Hunter Henry, who caught 4 passes for 30 yards and a touchdown (9 points). But it was all Peoria Hurricanes after that. They were led by Kyler Murray (324 Pass Yds, 3 Pass TDs, 38 Rush Yds) and the Baltimore Ravens defense (13 Pts Allowed, 307 Yds Allowed, 3 Turnovers). Peoria Hurricanes (5-5) will look to get another W against Throw up the X, while Melonville LaRues (6-4) try to right the ship against Miami Mini.

Coach Talk

Peoria Hurricanes
Hey, the key to football is creating mismatches, right? Thanks to a solid display from Kyler Murray, we thoroughly outplayed Melonville LaRues at the quarterback position this past week (38 points to 6). Murray went 27-for-44 for 324 yards, three TDs, and an INT in a 30-27 loss to the Buccaneers.
Melonville LaRues
Wait, our starting QB tossed two interceptions and literally zero touchdowns? We may have quite a dilemma on our hands here: Were the Steelers actually that great against the pass, or was Jared Goff just that out-of-sync with his receiving crew? This is the sort of judgment you'll need to make, Melonville LaRues, as you set your lineup for Week 11 and beyond!
