Coach Talk

Aussig Spartans
Hey, creating mismatches is the key to football, right? With solid performances by Aaron Jones and Ezekiel Elliott, our team certainly took that to heart this past week. We thoroughly dominated Wizardos Tiburones at running back (46.5 points to 7.6). Jones had 192 total yards and a TD, while Elliott logged 93 yards and two scores.
Wizardos Tiburones
With four catches on only five targets this past week, the starting running backs for Wizardos Tiburones should smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to start checking down more frequently.
