Scuba Divers come up short of projections, succumb to Crhysboys, 83.68-69.26

There's no easy way to say it, Scuba Divers dropped the ball, at least according to projections, as Crhysboys earned an 83.68-69.26 win. Scuba Divers jumped out to a 28.10-point lead on Thursday behind outstanding performances from DeAndre Hopkins, who caught 6 passes for 94 yards and 2 touchdowns for 21.4 points, and Carlos Hyde, who ran for 67 yards (6.7 points). But Crhysboys held the lead the rest of the way, powered by the Seattle Seahawks defense, who allowed only 9 points, surrendered 344 yards, and forced 5 turnovers for 17 points, and Michael Thomas, who caught 10 passes for 101 yards and a touchdown (16.1 points). This marks the second time this season Crhysboys have taken down Scuba Divers, after winning 107.46-88.2 in their last matchup. Crhysboys (3-9) will look to sustain their winning ways against Blue Dragons, while Scuba Divers (4-8) try to get back on track against Aussig Emptyheads.
