Firedawgs fall short of predictions, lose to #1 STUNNA in 121.62-118.24 battle

There's no easy way to say it, Firedawgs underdelivered, at least according to projections, as #1 STUNNA came back for a 121.62-118.24 victory. #1 STUNNA trailed 118.24-104.32 heading into Sunday night, but the team came back behind the Los Angeles Rams defense (7 Pts Allowed, 267 Yds Allowed, 1 Turnovers) and Cooper Kupp (3 Rec, 53 Rec Yds). Marvin Jones Jr. (19.9 points) and Le'Veon Bell (17.2) were the top performers for Firedawgs in the loss. This marks the first time this season #1 STUNNA have knocked off Firedawgs, after falling 168.76-136.4 in their last matchup. #1 STUNNA (5-6) will look to get another win against Sparty Stafford, while Firedawgs (8-3) will try to develop some positive momentum against EagleTalin's.

Coach Talk

#1 STUNNA
Hey #1 STUNNA, the good news is that we took this matchup by more than three points. Even better news is that we've proven we're stronger than this, as our scoring average through 10 weeks was 145.48. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Firedawgs
Keep your head up, Firedawgs! Trust me on this one (coming from a coach who's experienced life on the hot seat)... You can take comfort knowing that there's always that scrappy Graduate Assistant job open at the community college down the road!
